Playoff lives hang in the balance when the Packers (9-4) visit the Raiders (6-7) on Sunday.
For Green Bay, the scenario is simple: win and you're in. A 10th victory on the year would -- at a minimum -- secure a wild card spot. But the NFC North remains the priority for the Packers. With the Panthers and Cardinals running away with the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds, respectively, hosting at least one playoff game is still of importance to Aaron Rodgers and company.
Brett Favre Almost Came Out Of Retirement
As for Oakland, a different kind of playoff battle awaits them.
The Raiders still require an intense amount of help around the NFL to make the playoffs, but even those scenarios are obsolete with a loss on Sunday. Business must be handled at the O.co Colisuem first.

What They're Saying
#Packers WR Davante Adams (ankle) was upgraded to probable from questionable yesterday, so he's good to go vs. the #Raiders.
