NFL Weeks 16 and 17

Never have I been so engrossed in the NFL, and never have I had a better time watching a Packer game than last Sunday. We crushed the New York Giants at Lambeau, keeping our playoff hopes alive. We dominated from start to finish, on offense and defense.

The Bears beat the other New York team, the Jets. In theory, the Jets are a good team, but I won't buy it until they win some games.

The Patriots easily finished off the Bills, and Arizona managed to beat Dallas. Detroit played a great game against the Dolphins, beating them 34-27. Detroit is improving in leaps and bounds, and next year they might actually be a serious threat.

Minnesota somehow beat the a hot Philadelphia Eagles team, but Brett Favre didn't play most of the game. A former wide receiver, Joe Webb, played well in his absence.



New Orleans defeated Atlanta, but the Falcons will still walk away with the #1 seed in the NFC.

The Packer's momentum carried them to a win against the Bears in Week 17. The Bears, who had a guaranteed playoff spot, no matter the outcome of the game, played all of their starters. Jay Cutler was dropped six times, and picked off twice. Our defense played particularly well, allowing only 3 points.

Detroit beat the Vikings, and they will finish the season 6-10.

Indianapolis has secured a playoff berth, thanks to their victory over the Titans in Lucas Oil.

The Giants, despite beating Washington 17-14, will not be in the playoffs. Tampa Bay was also denied the playoffs, even though they beat New Orleans by 10.

Let the playoffs begin! GO PACK GO!
