Can the Packers make it to the NFL playoffs?

The 2022 NFL season is not what the Green Bay Packers had in mind as they are 5-8 for the season.

However, some feel that the Packers can still make the NFL playoffs this season.

But are these delusional dreams for the team and the fans, or is there a chance?

Packers need too much help to make the playoffs

The Packers’ 2022 playoff chances are on life support, and fans refuse to tune out.

With the Packers having a 4% chance of going into their bye week, everyone sees this as their chance to make the playoffs.

It’s all about perspective. Instead of saying the Packers’ playoff chances increased from 2% to 4%, let’s say the Packers’ playoff chances DOUBLED. #GoPackGo pic.twitter.com/iahlmAxmiU

However, the schedule shows that these thoughts are wishful thinking for the Packers.

If they want to make the playoffs, they need to win and have the help of several teams.

But winning could be a chore for Green Bay.

Their remaining schedule has them facing the Los Angeles Rams, Miami Dolphins, Minnesota Vikings, and Detroit Lions.

With all four teams having some kind of playoff scenario, the Packers are in dire straits.

While the Rams are the underdog team, they look rejuvenated after a comeback Thursday night.

If the Packers lose any of these games, they may be out of the playoff race.

However, victories for the teams ahead of them in the Wild Card race during week 14 may lower their chances.

With the odds so low, the Packers should just give up and let Jordan Love take over.

But with Aaron Rodgers’ ego in charge, he won’t let this happen.
