It seems bizarre that a team with a 5-7 record could still be in the thick of the playoff race. Welcome to the 2021 NFL season, where it’s impossible to lose enough to be out of it. As we hit the home stretch, no fewer than seven teams in the NFC have either five or six wins and are wallowing around the .500 mark. With five games still to play, the division winners have pretty much been decided. As the bevy of mediocre teams battle it out for the wild card spots, the Green Bay Packers find themselves above the fray, able to focus on a higher goal.
