Five predictions for Packers in final five weeks of 2019 season

1. Packers make it to at least the divisional round of playoffs

Had the Packers secured home-field advantage in the playoffs, they’d have been a dangerous team. With that now a long shot, it will be that much tougher to go all the way to the Super Bowl. They’ve proven in the past that it’s far from impossible, having won a championship as a wild-card in 2010.

But if they go onto win the NFC North and secure the third seed in the NFC, they’d take on the sixth seed at home in the wild-card round. With either the 49ers or Seahawks likely to earn the top wild-card berth, it could be a rematch with the Vikings at Lambeau Field. But whether it’s the 49ers, Seahawks, Vikings or even the Los Angeles Rams, I’m taking the Packers in the frozen conditions a Lambeau Field.

Clearly, there’s a lot to be worked on for this Packers team to win a championship. But if they can make it to the divisional round and set up a matchup with the number two seed, anything is possible. Especially when Aaron Rodgers is your quarterback.

I expect the Packers to not only win the NFC North, but also advance through to the divisional round of the playoffs with a home victory in the wild-card round. Who they meet in the divisional round remains to be seen, but they have a great chance of reaching the final four of the NFC.
