    I've gotta think we're the favorites in the NFC right now.

    If Green Bay gets the #1 seed they're going to the Super Bowl. Nobodies beating them at Lambeau. Eagles, Packers, and Cardinals are all tied for the #1 seed now. Problem for Philly is they lost to GB and ARZ so we're f----- on any tie-breaker.

    Aaron Rodgers is a bad BAAAAD MAN! Loved seeing GB whoop the Pats that was good for my Broncos and of course I just love to see Brady lose and flip out on the sideline.

    I'm a Lions guy but there's no way they beat GB again, just no way in h---. Bucs and Bills should be easy wins, and Falcons might be a minor challenge but shouldn't be a problem.

    Aaron Rodgers looks like he's not even making any mistakes out there, playing flat out incredible. d--- near perfect decision making and perfect throws. All he really needs to do is to play like that in the playoffs and if so, the Packers are unstoppable.

    I'd be very curious to see how a playoff Packers/Seahawks game goes with the Seahawks D hopefully playing at their best. Seattle destroyed them in week 1 this year in Seattle but the Packers weren't playing good at all at that point, a playoff matchup would be a lot different.

    Seattle is a completely different team since week 1 and their SB win. No Percy Harvin, no Golden Tate (from last year). I think both the Broncos and the Packers would beat the Seahawks today if they were both home, maybe not in Seattle though.

    I don't want to hear you b----. I'm from Michigan, I had to watch the Lions go 0-16 after going 4-0 in the preseason. I was glad to see the Raiders win a game cause I would never wish a professional team to go winless it's a s-----y feeling. Just be hopeful that you guys get a good player in the draft lol.

    Whoop? Pats had the ball at the Packers 20 with the chance to win. Being a Broncos fan would explain this comment though.

    I hear ya man. Stafford is a G though and the Lions have been improving. We always get a good draft pick. Then, we under develop them to the point they are second stringed or picked up by another team. A skunk season would be terrible. But I guess that's what being faithful is all about. Sticking by your s--- team until they become good and actually being able to enjoy a winning season when it does happen. I'm from California, never seen so many wishy washy bandwagon fans anywhere in my life.

    Fair enough, but Rodgers whooped Brady in the stats department. Both had 2 TD's, Aaron had only 2 more competitions, but had 123 more yards than him.

    Yeah it's tough. Stafford has so much potential yet still makes so many mistakes. There was that 2 week period where he didn't score one TD and that's unacceptable. They're still in the hunt though, but GB will most likely win the division. As for the Raiders, like you said they need to do better with developing their players after drafting them.

    Not denying he played better. Rodgers is incredible at home, just as Brady is. Hopefully we get to see that game on neutral ground in February.

    Well i'm first and foremost a Peyton Manning fan so I desperately want him to win one more SB before retirement. If Denver could beat NE again in the AFC champ. game then I think they would play GB. That's a tough game to call but i'd give a slight edge to GB. I'm a fan of Rodgers too so if he beat Manning I would not be heart broken though haha.

    @Kevin if the Raiders get the 1st pick next year, think they take Mariotta or stick with Carr? I know Carr's looked pretty good but it might be a big mistake to pass on someone like Mariotta, have a feeling he'll be one of the top QBs in a few years. IMO they should either take Mariotta or trade away the pick if they get it since there'd definitely be some teams willing to give away a LOT to get him.

    If I'm Oakland or Jacksonville or whoever gets that pick, I take Mariotta and trade away Bortles/Carr for a 2nd or 3rd rounder. But I doubt they'd actually do that. It's not even about giving up on Bortles/Carr, it's just Mariotta might be one of those Luck/Manning type players you just can't pass on, I personally think he will be. He's a safer bet than those other guys.

    I do think it'd be very stupid to take a player other than Mariotta at number 1 though, that team could easily just move down 5-10 spots and most likely take the guy they wanted still, and also get a few extra draft picks.

    I would like to see us stick with Carr for a while. Think there's a lot of good receivers we could go after and that's what he really needs.

    I doubt it just because Green Bay has the tie breaker on them and a very easy schedule. I say Green Bay finishes 13-3 with the #1 seed and Philly finishes 12-4 with the #2 seed (we'll lose one more game. Either Seattle or Dallas). Eagles will lose in the NFC Championship game just like the good old days.
