Would've been better if Vikings won and ended up winning their division than the Lions win. Vikings more likely to have tiebreaker over us if we both finish with same record than if Lions and us did. Either way wildcard is unlikely. Path to playoffs is with 2 wins on the west coast and 2 Falcons losses during the same span to Cardinals and Chiefs.

Vikings are in free fall and have the Cowboys coming to town.  Not really worried about them.  Our admittedly slight chance at a wildcard is us winning out and the skins losing to us and the gaints

They're still a good team, just have been finding ways to lose games. That could continue but I bet at some point they get over it.  And if they end with the same record as us, they're in over us. Probably not a big deal and main path is through the division likely but it definitely would be better for us if Vikings won today. Not much at all but would've been slightly better.

I agree, the division is slightly more likely.  But I think they lose to the Cowboys and I don't see them winning their last four.  Don't see us winning our last 6 though, so it probably doesn't matter.

They will lose to Cowboys and Packers

DUDE!!!!!!! You leave my Lions alone. There has to be a way we can make the playoffs without having to screw over my Lions.

 

We pretty much need to win out to have a shot at the playoffs. If we can, let the chips fall where they may. But I will be danged if I will root for my Lions to lose, just so you will feel safer.

If you're a Lions fan why are you on this board

Not looking at anyone else, but you have to assume if we won out we are in safely, either as division champ or wildcard.  Question is could we somehow find a way to get in at 9-7.  

Yes. Falcons could lose 4 games honestly just looking at matchups. But that starts with a loss for them this sunday.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive

      It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
