Has there ever been a team that didn't punt in consecutive games and lost them both before the Packers just did it?

It’s like they have no idea what they are doing. The Magic broke them

I think I saw a stat that they are 0-3 when not punting.  Or 0-2-1 i don't think they punted vs Cowboys

Caleb Williams 1 North title.  Jordan Love 0

It was actually the panthers they didn’t punt against. To not punt while scoring over 20 points a single time has to be historic. In those games they scored 13, 16 and 24 points.

Posters over at Brewers fanatic calling for MLF to be canned are nuts.  I'll concede Love is a good QB, Willis?  There's a reason why he was traded for a 7th round pick and not the starting QB in Tennessee along with a reason why he looks good at the moment.  It's the system and it's MLF, Willis may go to some big pay day however, if it's not a system fit, there's going to be a big dose of reality for the team that installs him as QB1.

Willis will probably go to someone like the Raiders if they don't draft a QB in round 1 of the draft 

 He will proceed to suck.

The Flower is probably a top 5 coach in the league.  Packers fans,  be careful what you wish for on coaching

Drake Maye is 17/19 for 229 passing yards and 4 TDs, at halftime.......

With so many games swinging in a way that could clinch every playoff spot, I'm now rooting for a scenario where the NFL can't pick a game to flex to SNF next week that isn't meaningless. 

For starters, it means CAR beats SEA, PIT beats CLE and TB loses to MIA. That clinched both those divisions making their games next week meaningless. 

Then if the Bears beat the Niners and the Rams beat the Falcons, it makes the SF-SEA game potentially meaningless because the Rams win the NFC West with a Week 18 win in that scenario.

Rodgers getting owned by the Browns is hilarious. 

[Soul]

Blahahah…Rodgers’ Steelers lost to the Browns.  Go Ravens next week.

Well, boo.

SNF next week will be either Panthers-Bucs or Steelers-Ravens, but I bet they'll go with Steelers-Ravens.

[bukie]

There's still a small chance next week's Panthers-Bucs game is meaningless, because if Atlanta beats the Rams and Saints, the Panthers win the division in the case of a 3-way 8-9 tie.

The Bills are laying a turd.

I'd be shocked if they go with Car-TB. No way they pass up Pitt-Balt in prime time.

[Brian707]

I would guess Panthers Bucs is Saturday night. Steelers Ravens Sunday night. 49ers vs Seahawks could be for division and #1 seed if Bears lose tonight

Seattle is a terrific defensive team and all but what a massive turd bucket of a game on offense by Carolina

[BigSlick]

Bryce Young is not really a starting quarterback, and the sooner the Panthers accept that reality, the sooner they can find the actual solution at QB because the rest of the team is shockingly decent.

Yeah, I'd guess that CAR-TB is Saturday and PIT-BAL is SNF.

Losing because of a missed extra point is brutal.

Not as bad as losing because your team can't field an onside kick.

I didn’t catch the end.  I heard the Bills went for 2?  At any rate, with this win it opens the door for Philly to potentially get the 2 seed if the Bears falter.

They did go for 2 yeah. But they only did it because they missed the previous extra point.

I forgot about the Niners-Seahawks game potentially being for the division.
