Rodgers: Packers 'going to need some help' to make playoffs

The Green Bay Packers are in a precarious position.

Following a 24-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday night, the Packers own a 4-6-1 record and sit behind nine teams in the NFC standings.

Having lost four of their last five games, quarterback Aaron Rodgers knows the playoffs are currently a longshot for Green Bay.

"We're going to need some help. We've got to win these five and then get some help," Rodgers said in his postgame press conference.

The Packers have the Arizona Cardinals, Atlanta Falcons, Chicago Bears, New York Jets, and Detroit Lions left on their schedule and will likely need to finish the year 9-6-1 just to give themselves a chance to secure a spot in the postseason.

Rodgers doesn't think it's impossible.
