Tonight we get a preview. And ya, next week worries me.

And the Cards tear right down the field on the iggles...
The Packers' hopes for a bye depends on what happens tonight. Arizona wins their division with a win, and Seattle would rest their starters against them in week 17. Even if the Packers win out, there's a 0% chance they get a bye without an Arizona loss tonight.
Well then.
Go Iggles.
Tie game. Eagles came to play tonight. With an Eagles win tonight and a Packers win next week, the Pack would be in the driver's seat for the #2 seed.
You can't rule it out
See. Cards are not all some make them out to be. They can be beat. And the Packers are better than the Beagles.
Cardinals has kinks in their secondary.
Great throw, even better drop.
Ray Davies?
Tackling doesn't get much worse than that. Reminds me of that run LeGarrette Blount had against the Packers in 2011.
Chip Kelly is an idiot. You take points on the road. And here we think MM is bad...
They're playing at home. They were dumb to put Mathews in there instead of Murray, though.
Not to mention they should have taken more time
Nevermind my bad. That injury to Johnson is worth noting. Knees aren't supposed to bend that way.
AZ is a good football team. However, just like Carolina, they're very beatable.
OOB?
Eagles
Love all this if, then, and then.....and this is just my humble opinion, the Packers stink.... they're not going anywhere beyond their first game. As the wild card team. ïŋ―ïŋ―ïŋ―ïŋ―ïŋ―ïŋ―
Remember when the brilliant mad scientist Chip Kelly was going to take the NFL by storm with his crazy schemes, lightening fast tempo and crazy formations no one had seen before? Um ya.
So long #2 seed. Oh well, it was going to be hard to pull it off anyway. Not surprising that those home losses to Detroit and Chicago cost them.

Packers win the last two, then the Cardinals will lose the last two (Packers, Seahawks). Packers get the # 2 seed.
The Seahawks won't have anything to play for in week 17. They will rest their starters for their wildcard game, and Arizona's starters will mow over Seattle's backups. Do you see Tarvaris Jackson and the rest of Seattle's backups winning a road game against a team playing for a bye?

The Seahawks will rest their starters the week before their wildcard game, but the Cardinals will play their starters for a majority of their last game before their bye. Because the Seahawks would rather the Cardinals have home field advantage than the Packers, and would like to play at Arizona in the playoffs. Got it.
The Cardinals will need to win in week 17 to secure a bye if they lose to the Packers next week, you doofus. The Seahawks won't risk the health of players like Russel Wilson to keep the Cardinals from a bye. He may play a quarter, tops.

Why don't you stick to the game threads and your usual brillant real time posts, like these:
I blame myself for allowing myself to think this team still had a shot at a bye. Stupid to get my hopes up with this POS team."
.....instead of trying to pontificate that the Cardinals will win because the Seahawks will rest their starters.
You're just a first rate imbecile if you think that Pete Carrol will play risk injury to his starters in a game where his team stands to gain absolutely nothing. Teams prefer Lambeau in January over a dome, and they're willing to risk injury to starters just to get there. Who knew?

Nah, as an imbecile I think I rate just below you.
