Hahahahaha this is quintessential "I'm not mad it's actually funny to me. I'm laughing actually"

I'm a bit miffed because I have to deal with lovely cheeseheads in my personal life, but it's Monday now and I'm not going to let it ruin my day. My team is still winning their division and has a shot at the second seed in the playoffs. The season isn't over, and even if it was: life goes on. We have a fantastic MNF game ahead with two of the best teams in the AFC and I'll be at my favorite cigar lounge in San Jose watching it with my best friend. It's all good.:shrug:

I don't get why being able to recover from a football team losing a game in 24 hours is such a strange concept to you all. I thought Kawalimus was supposed to be the weirdo around here, not the norm.

The Lions have @Dallas, @NYG, and home against the Packers to close out their season. That's a really rough stretch and it wouldn't be surprising to see them lose all 3. Meanwhile the Packers get the Bears and the broke rear end Lions next. They could easily be tied at 9 wins each going into the Detroit game, and playing for control of the division with the loser not even getting a wild card spot because the NFC East is definitely getting one of those spots and the NFC south has a good shot to take the other.

Hahahaha what the gently caress are you talking about? Even the article you posted says that the teams that won their 40-point blowouts were 10-5 in the following contests from 2009-2013, which is a 67% win percentage. Hell even in the listed games, right there in your post, the Seahawks won a 40-point blowout, then won another the following week

like you didn't even come up with something that supports your point

It says a 67% winning percentage, not a 100% except for the Seahawks. Seattle lost a game to Aaron Rodgers and the Packers at home. I fail to see why I should act like the sky is falling.

Dallas, Seattle, Atlanta, Tampa Bay, Giants, Packers (not in that order) would be my pick right now unless Rodgers is worse and Stafford is better, injury wise.

Every team that has played this year has an embarrassing loss except for the Cowboys. Does that mean the entire NFL is garbage now and only Dallas is even average?

This is why Packers fans are the worst: you blew the Seahawks right out of your stadium and yet you're saltier about your win than we are about our loss. I'm so glad you're not even making the playoffs. 2016 was a good year after all.

I like how this article literally just ignores that the 49ers spanked the Jets 34-0 the week before the Bills game they listed by creating a 40 point win as a blowout to make it work.

Holy arbitrary data points.

I must win every thread in GBS. I don't care how much banal semantic quibbling and shitty posts it takes.
The Packers don't have to rely on a bunch of flukey poo poo to nab a playoff spot. They could easily still make the playoffs. Obviously they could stumble, but it's not far fetched at all to see them take the NFCN. They've been playing as hot as anyone and are peaking at the right time.

Yes, the Packers were hot trash 6 weeks ago and are playing very well right now which, given this coaching staff, is pretty shocking. I'm just laughing that your "I'm not mad" argument included the Packers not making the playoffs as a reason you weren't mad. Though I'd prolly be p happy if the Seahawks missed!

Tonight isn't an especially important game but will give us some room for error so if we lose to Philly or Cincinnati(very possible), we'll still win the division. That is if we win in Pittsburgh, which I do not believe we will do. If we lose two of three to New England, Philadelphia, and Cincinnati then Pittsburgh wins the division even if they lose to us, as long as they beat Cincinnati and Cleveland.

If Pittsburgh beats us, then we have to win out(including tonight) and they have to lose to both Cincinnati and Cleveland.

Pittsburgh will almost certainly win the AFC North.

The Pro Bowl Skills Showdown, pitting AFC and NFC All-Stars against each other in unique competitions, will air during Pro Bowl Week on Thursday, January 26 at 7:00 PM ET on ESPN, the NFL announced today.

The Skills Showdown is a part of the re-imagined Pro Bowl Week, culminating in the 2017 Pro Bowl, which features a return to the traditional AFC vs. NFC format following three years using a revised, "unconferenced" structure.

The 2017 Pro Bowl Legends Captains, JEROME BETTIS and RAY LEWIS of the AFC and TONY GONZALEZ and CHARLES WOODSON of the NFC, will lead their respective squads.

Each team in the Skills Showdown will feature a mix of quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, tight ends, linemen, linebackers, and defensive backs.

Taking place at ESPN’s Wide World of Sports in Orlando, the Skills Showdown will be produced by A. Smith & Co. Productions, producers of such shows as American Ninja Warrior and Hell’s Kitchen.

Competitions include:

Epic Pro Bowl Dodgeball: Pro Bowlers will compete in a game of dodgeball.

Power Relay Challenge: Four team members will compete in a timed relay race.
Precision Passing: Two players on each team will battle it out, trying to hit moving targets of varying size and distance.

Best Hands: Quarterback and wide receiver duos from each team will show off their skills, connecting on as many pass attempts as possible before time runs out.

I don't really have a lot of confidence in the Patriots beating the Ravens this time around. You can look at the records and the Vegas odds and DVOA or whatever, but I have a bad feeling about it, which I haven't had about any game this year other than the "Our backup quarterback has no thumb" game. It feels like they are due to lose a close game to a team they always hate playing.

I actually think we have a real good shot at winning. The Patriots are still the favorite in my mind, but especially without Gronkowski and Amendola I think the Ravens could wind up taking this one if we have a halfway decent performance on offense, which is always up in the air.

It's just not that important of a game in the grand scheme of things.

Yeah the Ravens are well coached and not dumb. I don't have a good feeling though about why they've been so hit or miss this year so maybe they show up, maybe they don't.

I don't think their offense will show up, it hasn't most of the year. But their defense, especially pass d, is so good it's been enough to win games. However, I think New England's offense will be able to scratch out enough points to win this one, particularly at home.
