Aaron Rodgers knows the Packers must win and get help

The Green Bay Packers won four of 11 games. To even have a chance to qualify for the playoffs, they now have to win five wins out of five. Needless to say, it is unlikely.

Even less likely is the possibility that they get the help they need to qualify for the playoffs with a 9-6-1 record.

"We are where we are right now, in terms of record, and we are going to need the help of some teams, then we have to take care of our own business," Rodgers said after the 24-17 defeat of Minnesota. "We will have to find a way to win a game on the road. We are 0-6 on the road. We just have to go home, rest, beat Arizona, then come back, beat Atlanta. Then we have to go to Chicago, a place we have won several times, and beat them. Go to new york [Jets] Toward Christmas, beat them, then come back to the house against Detroit, beat them. Get some help. "

So can they participate if they follow 4-6-1 with 5-0?

"I do not know," Rodgers said. "But I can tell you that 8-7-1 is not going to come in, I do not think so."

This probably means that the Packers will not come, because the chances of winning five times in a row to end the season are slim, to say the least.
