[@DarkNGG]

As a Packer fan, I love this. I love the competition of the NFCN. For years I said that the reason the Packers would consistently make the playoffs and then be an early exit was because the NFCN just didn't provide any semblance of competition. The Packers were essentially win-padding in the 2010s playing in the NFCN which came around to bite them in the ass when they had to actually play tough competition in the playoffs. Now that there are multiple good teams in the NFCN, the competition will be higher sure and the Packers might not go to the playoffs every year like in the 2010s, but when they do make the playoffs they'll be better prepared for them because they survived the meat grinder that is the NFCN.

[@codyalger2792]

We haven’t beaten ANY good teams. Philly, Minnesota, Detroit. They’re all playoff bound. We lost to all of them. Houston looks like a pretender. We look like one as of now too.

[@MRQ45LIMO]

They need to use Malik like the Saints used Taysom Hill. They also could use a little hurry up offense, but mostly the Defense needs to stop letting people roll up the middle, teams getting big chunks of Yardage up the gut has got to stop.

[@hev8286]

Packers haven’t been blown out in any of the games they’ve lost. The loss against the eagles and Vikings were close games. As good as the Lions are, the packers held up pretty well with a good defensive effort. Jordan Love needs to be patient with his decision making, especially when faced with adversed circumstances when playing from behind late in games. To make a deep playoff run Love has to be mentally prepared.

[@antoniouniverseantonio9630]

Each game is tough regardless of whether you have a losing record or a winning record, or you're at the beginning of season, or at the end of season, even in the playoffs. It never gets easier where you can just run on cruise control. A lot of young players have issues dealing with the ebbs and flows of the season and dealing with momentum shifting back and forth, either within a game or throughout the weeks with the power rankings. The team needs to just buy into the schemes on offense and defense and trust the process. The Pack have to continue to play disciplined on offense, defense, and special teams. Week to week they have to give each opponent all the attention they deserve. The Pack surely want to win the division but surely the young team will be more than happy with a wild card spot. The playoff seating may not be decided up until the last weeks, so it will be a grind until the end. GPG!

[@mikaelmian3420]

We don’t need to win the north, we need to win in the playoffs. Having that first game off in the playoffs could actually be detrimental to a young team still trying to figure it out in week 9

[@RaymondBrean]

Riding a 4-game winning streak heading into a high-profile showdown with the Detroit Lions this past Sunday, the Green Bay Packers simply shot themselves in to foot far too often, ultimately taking a 10-point 24-14 loss. But whether by 10 or by 50, a loss is a loss, and the Green Bay Packers simply need to learn from this one and regroup this Sunday at Chicago. Perhaps a Matt Lafluer lecture on how to avoid committing so many penalties should be on the docket. Despite the dismal defeat by the Detroit Lions, Green Bay is still in a good position as it pertains to the NFL playoff picture at the official midway point of this 2024 campaign. The Minnesota Vikings certainly didn’t do them any favors in the NFC North race with their 2 wins over the Indianapolis Colts and Jacksonville Jaguars, thus taking over 2nd place in the NFC North. But overall, the Green Bay Packers are in good shape. The Green Bay Packers are still sitting in the 7th place spot in the NFC conference. There’s always a certain amount of pressure that comes with that slot, as teams are just 1 spot away from the outside looking in. With that being said, however, Green Bay should feel comfortable as none of these teams chasing them at the moment have more than 5 wins, a group that currently includes the San Francisco 49ers (No.8, 5-4), Las Angeles Rams (No.9, 4-4, they’ll jump to No.8 if they beat the Miami Dolphins tonight and switch spots with the San Francisco 49ers because they have that head-to-head tiebreaker 27-24 win over them), Chicago Bears (No.10, 4-5), Seattle Seahawks (No.11, 4-5), and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (No.12, 4-6). The Dallas Cowboys (No.13, 3-6), Carolina Panthers (No.14, 3-7), New Orleans Saints (No.15, 3-7), and New York Giants (No.16, 2-8) are all down there as well, but none of these NFC teams are any sort of real threat. So Green Bay simply needs to learn from this loss to the Detroit Lions and figure some things out heading into week 11 as they travel to Soldier Field for the 1st of their 2 matchups with Da Bears at Chicago. Go Pack Go 💚💚💛💛

[@toddhannon3102]
