The Passing Chronicles: 2021 Week 17

I typed "Week 17" in the title and had the feeling that the season was over. After all, there are 17 weeks in the NFL season, right? Old habits die hard, I suppose.

I guess the Packers didn't care for the 18 week season either, so they just decided to get it over with in week 17. With some much-appreciated help from the Cardinals, the Packers clinched the #1 seed in the NFC with a week to spare. They now go into their Week 18 match-up with the Lions with absolutely nothing to play for. It looks like they'll be treating it as an exhibition game in terms of snap counts.
