Packers have clear path to No. 1 and No. 2 seed in Week 17
The Green Bay Packers will have a first-round bye with a win in Week 17, but they could also wrap up the top seed with some help.
A dominant victory at U.S. Bank Stadium puts the Packers in an excellent position ahead of the regular season finale against the Detroit Lions.
Green Bay can finish no worse than the third seed after being crowned NFC North champions on Monday night, but they will have their sights set much higher than that.
With a victory over the Lions next week, the Packers will have secured the second seed and will have a week off in the wild-card round before hosting the highest remaining seed in the divisional round. It would be their first playoff bye since 2014.
