Umm unless I missed something that game could determine if we win the division. We are currently tied for the lead with NO.

Yep. The ideal scenario is Minnesota drops one to Green Bay next Saturday night. The saints lose to the falcons next Sunday while we beat the Bucs. We then play the falcons where a win would give us the two seed.

Nope. Rams have the common opponent tiebreaker with us if they win out. Actually if there is a three way tie with Minnesota (assuming we win division) then Minnesota gets 2 seed. The two seed is almost impossible for us now with the Rams winning since they have two very winnable games.

Also, I hope you meant that the Falcons beat the Saints. We need that to happen to win the division. 

Completely missed the rams in this equation. Good call. Also fixed the saints losing the falcons.

all I meant was if it’s a meaningless game I hope he rests them.

No scenario exists where if we win, the week 17 game is a meaningless game.

If the Falcons beat the Saints in week 16, a win gives us the division.

If the Saints beat the Falcons in week 16, a win and a Saints loss gives us the division.

    • Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at. 
    • Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often. 
    • With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
