If we lose tomorrow, the season is done. We have three must win games.. Jets, packers without Rodgers, and bucs. We lose any of those and we're fuged

How would we be done at 7-4 with a loss to the jets? Afc team, and we'd still be right in the thick of it for the top nfc wild card spot with a head to head win over the falcons

This franchise has been a wild card team, been the #1 seed, been to four conference championships, two Super Bowls, won more playoff games than most teams over the last two decades, etc...at this point it’s Super Bowl or bust.  And if you cannot beat the Jets off a bye, you’re not winning three straight road playoff games and the Super Bowl in less than two months.

Indeed.  The Titans have at least a decent chance to beat the Rams in Nashville on Christmas Eve anyway, for all practical purposes eliminating SOS/SOV from the playoff table since we will sweep the AFC tomorrow.  

Ironically having a stronger SOS HURTS a team in draft positioning so (in the SMALL chance we don’t win it all and pick 32 in every round), we actually want teams we’ve played to LOSE at this point.  A great argument can be made for it anyway.

 

    If that bolded part winds up being true. You can keep that beer. But, if it winds up not to be true. I am coming back, and taking it away from you. lol

The Niners were never good and have had a spate of injuries and bad luck but now have Jimmy G under center and host a Seahawks team they should have beaten in Seattle when the Hawks were full strength-now limping into Santa Clara on a short week.  Not only do the Niners have a chance, it may even be better than 50%.

The Bucs and Bears can win too.  Less than 50%, but far from the biggest upsets in football history.  Hell the Falcons lost at home to the Dolphins, who the Bucs just smoked last week.

Update-despite what was originally thought, it appears Shanahan is sticking with Beathard, at least at the start tomorrow.  Still, nothing is a sure thing for this Seahawks group.

For all interested, the best QB on the field in Atlanta today has been Mo Sanu: 1/1 for 50+ yards and a TD.
