I thought it was head to head first. This is why we were number one when we had the same record as Seattle when they were top of their division. Well, I have been wrong before...like the time I was thirteen and thought it would be a good idea to stick a knife in a light bulb fitting. (Just so you know, it really isn't)

Yes, we have the head to head over Seattle. We haven’t played GB. Then the next tiebreaker comes into play which is conference win%. GB has 2 conf losses and we have 3. You’re right, at the time when we we’re #1 was because we only had 2 losses to GB’s 3.
That’s why the only way we can jump ahead of GB is if we have a better record.

SEA is ahead of GB at the moment because of wins amongst like opponents.
GB loss to SF but SEA beat SF.

After tonight’s WIN we will be #2 and SEA goes from #1 to #3.

1. GB
2. NO
3. SEA
4. DAL
5. SF
6. MIN

No. GB has to lose 1 as well.

I would bet against the Pack going into Minnesota next week.
Minnesota has developed into a more complete team.
The Packers were not impressive at home today. In fact, they almost lost that game on a crazy play and the bad luck Bears could have walked into the end zone, but sigh... da Bears.

Bears offense is still horrible. Packers barely limped out of that game.

I don't think the ESPN playoff machine counts a win or loss for us yet.
We haven't won yet, we don't play until tomorrow night.

Would like to see how seeding changes if/after win tomorrow night on MNF.

You can pick who wins. If you pick us tomorrow we’re the 3 seed. We need GB to lose next week to be the #1 seed.

If Saints win out, we’re #2. If GB loses one we’re #1. Seattle can’t jump ahead of us because we beat them.
