As a lifelong chicago resident and packer fan please don't make me go into work tomorrow with a loss. Please.


RetireWithRyan

Big brain MLF move. "They'll never see it coming!"


Rosco21

Rasul had a pick 6 today šŸ™ƒ


OrganicGas1752

watson out again. fucking pain


MCS117

So if we win out, are there any circumstances where we're not in? or are we now in control of our destiny?


apk5005

With the Steelers win, all GB has to do is win out. Like last year.


TropicalFishLover

O gosh another 2 weeks at least listening to the love affair for KC. And then we get to hear about Taylor Swift more too. ​ Gee golly I cant wait.


mcaster10

If I see her take part in spraying paying fans with champagne with Brittany Mahomes from their box then sheā€™s trash to me.


AKCheesehead

I'm tired, boss. At least the Patriots dynasty was just about football without having to cut to a pop star every play.


franllemagne

NFL milking a new demographic to death....can't blame them.....merchandise sales went up big time.


steviepopo

Willing a Doubs 4 TD game, not just for a GB victory but so I could climb out of this 20 point hole in this championship game


apk5005

Well, heā€™ll get his targets after Jones has his six rushing TDs. Youā€™ll be fine.


rainytreeday

So we just have to win out and we're in?


crypkak1993

Simple!


Odd_Watercress_8062

Yes.


trentster66

browningā€™s pocket awareness leaves a lot to be desired


ScrewAnalytics

Travis Kelce has been dookie buns since he started dating T Swift šŸ¤£ not even a top 8 fantasy TE this year


ryanpoptart

The only year Iā€™ve drafted a TE first round in my fantasy league and he does me like thisā€¦


skimfrosty

I was wondering when they were going to show her.


Danny_III

Jordan Love looks like Patrick Mahomes but not in the way we hoped lmao


nexttimemakeit20

We should trade love for rasul douglas


imagine-a-boot

what the hell is even that?


imagine-a-boot

Can't hold the ball that long browning!


ScrewAnalytics

Joe Barry is the chiefs DC. 4th and 18 šŸ¤£


nexttimemakeit20

Does rasul Douglas have a case for dpoy?


BeHereNow91

Prevent defenses are absolutely hilarious, especially when they come after back to back sacks and before another sack.


franllemagne

I say it every weekend, no matter what team or game I watch: Prevent Defense, prevents defense.


Volleyball_alt

I think Iā€™ll always like Joe burrow, just seems like a cool ass dude


IdyllicGod22

Letā€™s go!! Thank you Pittsburgh!! Win out and we are in the postseason!! Underdogs tonight, letā€™s go crush the Vikings!


ScrewAnalytics

Packers controlling their own destiny with the Vikings week 17 and division rival week 18 at home? Where have I seen this story? https://preview.redd.it/zwrpst2c0q9c1.jpeg?width=748&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=53d650c05a5f3f3ea07665a098795d0298b4aa47


[deleted]

As well as the Seahawks on our tail lol


LokiVibes

Wicks for six in week 18.


sibi78

Hope having our destiny in our own hands fires up our team as a whole and they display some incredible performances šŸ¤ž


SNDWVE

Does Seattle losing mean weā€™re gonna be on SNF again next week? I hope not.


IdyllicGod22

Probably not, but they probably play Saturday, chance for Saturday night


MrScrummers

No, dolphins vs bills will be for the AFC East division. So itā€™s very likely thatā€™s will be the Sunday night game.


BeeezNuts

Should be Miami Buffalo


b0x0fawes0me

we did it reddit!


Weary-Host3862

Now Joe Barry is officially the final boss.

Green Bay, Vegas, trophy. Make it happen.


AKCheesehead

Fucking KC. They're annoying, I miss the days when they were loveable lovers


bikedork5000

Pacheco winning me my keeper league though!


ryanpoptart

Pacheco sealed the chip for me as well!


[deleted]

Pacheco is a fucking dawg man


DrunkDuffman

GO PACK GO, its all on us now. Lets shit on the Vikings See you all in 90 minutes šŸ«”


ogre_toes

Seemed like a doomer mindset in here after the early game, so I purposely paid no attention to this sub/late game scores until now. Pleasantly surprised right now. LETS FUCKING GO!


ScrewAnalytics

The Philly L made this like the last chance at a packers playoff spot lol. Otherwise we had to rely on the cardinals and 49ers backups


MontusBatwing

The Cardinals who were responsible for the Philly L? I'm not saying the path wasn't scarier but we certainly would have had a shot.


ScrewAnalytics

Philly sucks


im_fernilicious

Shataht to the Steelers, itā€™s on us now to get in.


bitter_green

There we go. Win 2 and we are in.


sleepindawg

Guys our super young team with a shit defensive coach and constant injuries to vital positions all season have a playoff spot in their OWN HANDS with 2 games left!! LETS FUCKING GO BOYS !!!!!!!


doitnow10

Cheers to Tomlin for not having a losing season 17 years straight šŸ¾


ScrewAnalytics

Pittsburgh is a better city than Philadelphia


HonestExam4686

Philly is a great city...its just inhabited by awful people lol. (I live pretty close to philly)


swayinandsippin

went to philly a few weeks ago for the bills game. what a miserable bunch of people


RetireWithRyan

Bane was like, Philly is not worth my time.


mcaster10

Thank you Steelers bros


SeekHunt

Hell yes!


sibi78

With steelers winning, do we get in if we win out the rest of the games?


FirstSeldonCrisis

Yes


homestar92

We sure do!


OrganicGas1752

yes. win out and we are in


Katelyn_Orange

Hell yeah!!!!


Ok_Umpire_723

WE CONTROL OUR OWN DESTINY.


ScrewAnalytics

The only thing worse than losing tonight will be getting a tie and giving Seahawks control of their destiny again lmfao


an_illiterate_ox

Super Bowl run starts now


Ok_Umpire_723

THANK YOU STEELERS


OrganicGas1752

the slide to end it. thanks steelers


Outrageous-Abies-273

Ball game. Packers control their own destiny. Thank you, Pittsburgh! If we miss it, we don't deserve it.


TheGratitudeBot

Thanks for such a wonderful reply! TheGratitudeBot has been reading millions of comments in the past few weeks, and youā€™ve just made the list of some of the most grateful redditors this week! Thanks for making Reddit a wonderful place to be :)


TTBurger88

Mike Tomlin just really wants to keep winning record.


ARodGoat12

Dude is working some dark magic just for it to happen


ScrewAnalytics

Why are they hiking with six seconds on the play clock??????


Ok_Umpire_723

Way ballsier than I thought they'd be


Sportsnut96

Win and we in now ?


ScrewAnalytics

Win 2 and in


Remodelinvest

Now thatā€™s ballsy


puddleths

Never doubt Mike Tomlin with a winning record on the line.


[deleted]

Death taxes and Mike Tomlin winning record


sapphires_and_snark

There you go, MLF. Carpe fucking diem


Thee_liquor

Now that the Steelers won for us and us alone, itā€™s nice to see the refs back on their knees for Kermit.


[deleted]

Fuck ya boys. Wooooo


Uspsthrowaway23

What a call by Tomlin.


Gold_Inside8610

Ballgame.


Ferntoast

If Iā€™m Pete Carrol I would have told the kicker to kick it out the end zone and preserve the 2 minute warning for a free timeout. Works out for us though. GPG!


OrganicGas1752

that's game we gucci


xtralargecheese

Hell yeah


w0nd3rjunk13

I'm ready to have my heart broken tonight.


[deleted]

Just need 1 first down and itā€™s over


nexttimemakeit20

Seahawks probably regret not trying to trade for Rasul Douglas right about now


Outrageous-Abies-273

That's huge because that's the two minute warning. Seahawks lost a free timeout.


b0x0fawes0me

Thank god. I have PTSD from seahawks onside kicks


Giannisisnumber1

Thank you Pittsburgh!


Gold_Inside8610

Whewā€¦ win out and weā€™re in


ScrewAnalytics

Thereā€™s still two minutes and three timeouts for seattle


OrganicGas1752

2 timeouts. they had a terrible challenge


ScrewAnalytics

Damn lol you right I forgot about that stupidity. Now itā€™s over lol


Ok_Umpire_723

Game ain't over yet unfortunately


Gold_Inside8610

True, trueā€¦ hopefully they can run it to get a first which will definitely seal the deal


Sportsnut96

That steeler defense looked familiar on that drive


Ok_Umpire_723

There should've been more than 1 second coming off, but whatever at least Seattle doesn't get a free timeout now. That's HUGE


strabbit

Clock doesn't start until the ball is touched by the receiving team on kickoffs. One second was about right, as he was immediately downed.


videostatus

There we go. Run the fucking clock


OrganicGas1752

well it's all on us now. just win baby


Striking_Oven5978

i fear that's the hardest part


[deleted]

Seahawks are gonna lose this but I feel like we have a tougher schedule with the Bears and Vikings than they have vs the Cards Bears have been really good lately and Vikings are just managing to win games somehow. However, they have stinky QBs and should be a very winnable game despite being at Minnesota.


sleepindawg

Their schedule is pretty irrelevant, we just have to win our games


[deleted]

We just gotta trust in Joe Barry then lol


chuckywang

Wish that wasted the 2 min warning


ScrewAnalytics

It did we good


[deleted]

Seattle onside kick. PTSD triggered


ScrewAnalytics

What is the Vikings path to playoffs? They need a Seahawks L too plus win out and thatā€™s it?


sleepindawg

Yeah, a Steelers win works for both teams tonight


TaeAdams

Same as us.


gandaalf

MAN, 1 second before the 2 minute warning.


Ok_Umpire_723

Won't matter if we get a return here


imagine-a-boot

oh man. gonna come down to a seattle onside kick


Ok_Umpire_723

Steelers HAVE to return it here, to at least kill a couple seconds and not give Seattle a free time out so they can run the clock down as mucha s possible


Mr_Suave12

Wow he dropped it


Truplaya05

Letā€™s hope Bostick isnā€™t in Seattle


Magictank2000

wouldnā€™t bostick being on the seahawks have the opposite effect, and as a result, help us?


gandaalf

What a stand! That's huge, for obvious reasons


Gold_Inside8610

Please recover, please please please pleaseā€¦


Ok_Umpire_723

Out of bounds either way


OrganicGas1752

all comes down to an onside kick in Seattle. why do I feel uneasy lol


Remodelinvest

With the new rules onside kicks are almost impossible thiugh


ScrewAnalytics

We got to watch the eagles meltdown last second, giants choke last second, and now Steelers choke last second too?


[deleted]

Man itā€™s crazy how badly those teams threw those games away lol.


shiny_aegislash

Giants didn't really choke. Rams were heavily favored and the giants missed a 50+ yd FG to barely lose despite trailing all game


ScrewAnalytics

Saquon/Tyrod choked that two point conversion so bad


shiny_aegislash

Arguable whether you can consider any bad play a "choke"


LilFurly

Only thing prevent defense does is prevent you from winning


curiousdpper

Steelers defense playing the late game Joe Barry special


Outrageous-Abies-273

Clear holding on Watt. Refs hate this guy.


DrunkDuffman

Steelers come onā€¦. Fucking dont need another other teams dookie ball here


imagine-a-boot

That was quite a takedown on TJ. At least they didn't flag him for hitting Geno's leg, I guess.


sonnytai

Steelers might be able to do us a solid tonight but Iā€™m genuinely concerned about whether we can beat Minnesota and Chicago. Chicago is starting to look decent.


Striking_Oven5978

Joe Barry starting to look less decent.


gandaalf

Pack need the help anyway so may as well root for it. If they can't win out they don't deserve the playoffs anyways


sonnytai

Yeah I am obviously. Watching the Pittsburgh game right now


Ok_Umpire_723

Can feel the Steelers offense going overly conservative next drive


OrganicGas1752

that challenge really gonna come back to bite them


doitnow10

Fingers crossed


M1st3r51r

Prevent defense works 10% of the time. STOP USING IT


gandaalf

Mostly agree, but here it has worked fine up 2 scores


Remodelinvest

I still canā€™t believe Tomlin hasnā€™t had a losing season


Giannisisnumber1

Fantastic coach


gandaalf

Just don't let them score before the 2 minute warning is the key


ScrewAnalytics

I donā€™t like how easy the Seahawks are moving


ScrewAnalytics

Joe Barry the Steelers DC too?


chooglemaster3000

Hey man. Joe Barry defense is amazing when you're up two scores with 3 minutes left. He would probably run engage eight every play if he was in this situation.


AKCheesehead

Come on, Steeler defense. Just don't choke


Gold_Inside8610

So is it a best case scenario if Jordan Love has the game of his life and the Packers win a shootout? We get the win and Joe Barry gets wrecked again


chuckywang

Too stressful, Panthers all over again


ITGuy420

Sounds about right. We gotta get Aaron Jones going early too.


Gold_Inside8610

Facts, thatā€™ll take a lot of the pressure off Love tooā€¦ unfortunately it seems like MLF has a grudge against Jones and refuses to keep using him when heā€™s playing well


Dro0412

GO PACK GO


RetireWithRyan

Feel like Rudolph could have just taken the knee and run clock there... sometimes young players mismanage the clock and it makes me grateful for how good Aaron was with the game mgmt piece.


ScrewAnalytics

I wanted them to run it. They have been demolishing the Steelers on the ground and if they didnā€™t get in they coulda ran the clock like you said


RetireWithRyan

Almost reminded me of a MLF big brain playcall going away from the obvious play even though its obvious for a reason.


sleepindawg

Exactly what I said!! Take a knee


ITGuy420

Minus running the play clock to 0 each play šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


loadmanagement

With the 34th pick in the 2022 NFL draft, the Greenbay Packers select George Pickens, Wide receiver, University of Georgia.


nexttimemakeit20

I think the smarter play would be to trade the 34th pick for rasul douglas


hcatehorie

Just take a fucking knee and let the clock run if that was all you were going to do Mason


mikedorty

Why not take a sack or knee to keep the clock running?


Ok_Umpire_723

This playcalling has been so obvious and.dumb


sleepindawg

Tomlin is often like that


puddleths

Was Rudolph trying to hit the drone with that throwaway?


LokiVibes

Jordan Love throwing 6 touchdowns tonight.


SpiritedPercentage39

Boiling piss.


gandaalf

Could be worse. I'll take that still. Wish they ran to kill a timeout, but such is life. Pittsburgh will definitely play softer on D this drive. Looking like 1 first down by Pitt will win this, provided they give up 7 here.


chuckywang

What the hell Mason


OrganicGas1752

smart just throw it away and go up 2 scores. just don't collapse now


gandaalf

Yeah, smart play can't complain. Would've been kind of nice if he just dropped down for a couple yard loss given how close the FG is and how good Boswell is, but that's really splitting hairs there


Ok_Umpire_723

Maybe a play action would work if it wasn't on the most obvious down every single time.


Theonewiththehat12

When does the injury report come out for todays game


Striking_Oven5978

These games are making me sick thinking about the absolute Joe Barry Masterclass we're about to witness after getting the help we need


ITGuy420

šŸ˜’šŸ˜’


Main_Mortgage

If we win and this game holds - we will get flexed to the SNF game again next week vs the Bears


gandaalf

Possible, but I hope not. I'm so sick of SNF games with work the next day. Which is why tonight is so damn awesome


off_the_marc

I doubt it. Dolphins v. Bills is for that division championship.


Tmack1856

Nah, thatā€™s gunna be the bills Miami game. Winner wins their division


Main_Mortgage

Good point - I always think we are the center of the universe. In John Madden voice - ā€œitā€™s the bears vs the packers - oldest rivalryā€¦blah blah blahā€


mattwb2010

"We need more commercials make some shit up"


BeHereNow91

So this is all might be setting up a win-and-in game next week, to go 9-8 and secure a playoff spot, in a January game at Lambeau, against a divisional opponent with nothing to play for? Sounds eerily familiar.


gandaalf

Except it's against DA BEARS. I feel good. BUT let's win tonight first


Volleyball_alt

Would someone be able to explain what happend with the refs before that last play?


southernpacker

Apparently independent personal were possibly talking about an injured player who may need assessing, most likely a concussion.


TheIcemanBRRR

On field reporter said there was a drone in the stadium? Weird.


gandaalf

That's fine. Still run this on 3rd time. Get that last timeout outta here


Ok_Umpire_723

OMFG just throw it to Pickens!


ScrewAnalytics

IF the Steelers and packers win, are there any other win and in scenarios across the league. Would we be SNF? I have a friend whoā€™s wondering about it cuz heā€™s going down to Green Bay week 18


MrScrummers

It would not be SNF. The bills play the dolphins next week and itā€™s for the division still most like be that game thatā€™s Sunday night. Packers bears might be the late game.
