So it all comes down to the Detroit Lions...

[Welshers]

The only way the Seahawks make the playoffs is if the Lions go to green bay and beat the refs and a surging Erin. I'm not liking the chances of it happening but you never know, it is the national flag league after all

A tie would work, also.

But, you are right there is almost no chance for the Lions to beat/tie the Packers AND the refs - I'm sure the refs will bring their "A" game.

It really is amazing. Everyone who knows anything about the NFL knows that in next week's matchup with Detroit, there will be multiple ticky tack penalties that favor Green Bay and anything remotely borderline will also go their way. And the NFL will just come right out and basically say, yep that's what we're doing. They want Erin and the Packers in no matter what it takes or what it looks like.

 

[SEAHAWKSTER]

We still have to beat the lambs don’t forget or it doesn’t matter the outcome of lions packers ….

 

[djb28]

Rodger vs Brady. That's what they want.

The most painful part is looking back a at couple of those STUPID losses.

We surpassed my expectations (6 wins) and Beat Denver but it’s still painful because my hopes got raised significantly.

Probably pretty similar for most.

Would be crazy if Detroit wins and Seahawks play reckless.

Losing 4 games to the NFC South makes me question how much we deserve to be in the playoffs. If we do get in it figures be a short trip and a long ride home.
My main interest right now is to see Denver lose their last one and hope Chicago wins a game. I would love to see us pick at 1 or 2 spot followed by another top 12 pick. THEN we'll see about our next playoff spot.

Eh maybe not. Aaron has fallen out a little with the toe the line crowd. So maybe the game will be played fairly.

Not too likely that TCU will beat Michigan either...

Psh. No shot. There will be a "He's back!" storyline because of the drubbing they gave the "always fall apart at the end" Vikings today.

Well the Seahawks only have themselves to blame for being in this situation ....if they only could have beaten any one of these teams at home - the Falcons or the Panthers, then they would have clinched a wildcard spot.

 

[Jerhawk]

Go Lions.

Although as previously mentioned, the Script clearly has Erin in the post season vs Brady. That's what brings ratings. Not Geno

Or the Raiders. That's the game that upset me the most

Will be very interesting to keep an eye on the officiating of that game.

If you’re correct we will probably see some BS in our game as well.

The Packers lost some awful games as well, hence the reason we both sit at 8-8

LOL. True but I always believe we are more deserving than the Packers.

We probably don’t but we didn’t that one year either

Just kidding but ya know what, we really probably don’t. I suspect that it will be one and out if we make it.

Still doesn’t change the fact that I’d like us to get a spot.
Imagine that for what most season expectations were.

Packers absolutely sucked as bad as we did in a few games.

We have every bit, if not more reason to be proud as packer fans. IMO
