Ive heard the announcers say the Green Bay lead is bad news for Bucs fans. Wrong. That is one of two paths to the playoffs. Unfortunately, if NY Giants win, and should New Orleans win Monday, the Bucs would be eliminated no matter what happens in week 17. If Green Bay wins, the Bucs can still make the playoffs, even if the Saints win Monday, by the Bears beating the Packers, and the Giants losing to Washington. Of course, the Bucs need to beat the Saints, but NO would have clinched by then. So as long as the Bucs win today, they live on.
