... that the Seattle Seahawks' loss to the Green Bay Packers in their 2019 Divisional Playoff game was their ninth straight to the Packers at Lambeau Field?

Source: "Seahawks fans have plenty of bad memories of their favorite team's performances in Green Bay, with the losing streak at Lambeau Field now at nine straight games. The last such win for Seattle was on Nov. 1, 1999."

Question: A few refs say that they were retrieved in 2020. I'm assuming this had a longer draft history than what I'm seeing here, but is there another explanation? ~ Pbritti (talk) 16:13, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pbritti just reused some references from Packers-Seahawks rivalry. I can change the access dates if you would like. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:47, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I hate to be saying this so late after you've nominated this article, but I have notability concerns. A cursory review of WP:NEVENT suggests that the coverage ranging from only within a month of when the game was played raises concerns regarding whether it merits an article. If there's a localized standard/guideline that permits divisional playoff games to have a presumed notability (I wouldn't be surprised, as I guess that makes sense), then please let me know. Thanks for the clarification. ~ Pbritti (talk) 16:31, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pbritti, I have added three sources from a few years out. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 23:05, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Gonzo fan2007: Long enough, new enough. Earwig checks out and so does the QPQ. I don't find the hook interesting at all - what else have you got?--Laun chba ller 17:53, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Launchballer ALT1: ... that the Seattle Seahawks' loss to the Green Bay Packers in their 2019 Divisional Playoff game continued a growing rivalry between the two teams, who met in the playoffs four times in 16 years up to that point? SL93 (talk) 03:18, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry Launchballer, don't know how I missed this. I think nine straight losses, especially in the NFL, is an interesting statistic. For generally any sports fan, that many straight losses is unexpected and unique. Do you have any suggestions? I'm not sure i find SL93 that "hooky". « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 04:17, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'll be honest, I missed completely that that was what the hook was trying to tell me. I've taken the liberty of adding a clause from ref #21 as I think it adds interest, and would suggest inverting ALT0 as some variant of ALT2: ... that the Green Bay Packers' 2019 National Football Conference victory against the Seattle Seahawks was their ninth at Lambeau Field in 20 years?, though you'll need another reviewer for 'in 20 years'.--Laun chba ller 00:59, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
