A win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night at Lambeau Field might not be required for the Green Bay Packers to eventually make the postseason in the NFC, but an upset of the defending Super Bowl champions would provide a fourth win in five games, a second consecutive upset over a current playoff team and drastically increase the team’s chances of qualifying for the postseason come the end of the regular season.
According to New York Times playoff predictor, the Packers’ odds of making the playoffs sit at 55 percent entering Sunday night.
