So funny reading some reddit threads from the last week or even earlier today (!) with people talking about how the Rams are the league's only good team or that they have a clear path to the super bowl
GUESS WHAT FOOLS, EVERYONE IS MID

Lots of people were ready to just hand the Rams the NFC title. Next week’s game is even more important now.

I will never in any circumstance find it within myself to be worried about the bears.
One can only hope. But we know that we also shoot ourselves in the foot. A little worried.

Models aside, I’d rather have my team having a chance to tie it at the end when they’re all fired up from making the comeback. Players make plays in those situations. That’s something analytics and models can’t quantify
Fwiw going for 2 down is the correct decision by Basically any model
Reason being you have to eventually go for 2 at some point. You'd rather know sooner if you dont get it

They’ve always been front running blowhards
Our division rivals all have some annoying attributes in their fan bases but at least they all live and die with their teams

Why would you go for two there? Kick the field goal so you’re still playing with the hope of just the one drive.

Bears week with real stakes. That's the NFCN I remember 🔥
Either result will please me, but it's actually better for the Packers if the Bears win on Friday

The bears might be legit but will also find a way to blow it in hilarious fashion. This is guaranteed.
There’s a C) there too. Bears are actually legit. Woof.

A) packers should have absolutely clobbered the eagles
B) even great championship teams occasionally go through midseason lulls and come out better for it so maybe it was a character building experience for these young packers

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

Only one player has recorded 12+ sacks in each of his first five seasons since they became an official stat in 1982: Micah Parsons.

Earlier this season I was close to being out on Matt LaFleur.
He called an incredible game today.

J.J. McCarthy had a 34.2 passer rating against the Packers.
A quarterback who spikes the ball on every play would have a passer rating of 39.6.
