Packers player makes prediction that immediately, spectacularly backfires

Going into Week 14, the Green Bay Packers were feeling themselves, and why not? They had won three games in a row, including a big Thanksgiving win over the Detroit Lions, and they followed it up with a huge primetime win over the Kansas City Chiefs. Suddenly, after a 2-5 start, the Packers were 6-6 and in the final NFC Wild Card spot. And with no remaining games against teams with winning records, Green Bay suddenly looked like they were a shoo-in to make the playoffs and could potentially even compete for the division title.
