Green Bay Packers have a very soft schedule to finish off the year

Packers should be in the Playoffs this year with a very soft schedule over the last 8 games. Question is can the Packers get a first round bye?

The Green Bay Packers have won five games this year and go into their bye 5-3.  They get a huge help from the NFL over their final eight games.  The Packers have some tough games ahead, but they are mostly at home. Five of Green Bay’s final eight games will be played at Lambeau Field. Their three road games are all very winnable: Minnesota, Tampa Bay and Atlanta. They have already got their division trips to Detroit and Chicago out of the way.

The Packers could be competing for a bye in December if they can get past the Patriots, Eagles and Bills.  I cannot see the Packers losing more than 3 of their final 8 games unless something goes terribly wrong.  Playing in Green Bay is hard to do, and if you consider the Packer will play another game in Buffalo which is their element they should be just fine.  It will be cold, but if the Packers can get Eddie Lacy running the rock early their season should end up pretty solid.
