We Can Potentially be the #2 Seed Sunday Night

Currently we're the # 5 seed. But if the Saints, Vikings, and Rams all lose while we win Vs Tampa, that means we leapfrog the Vikings (both 11-4 but we have the head to head victory) for the #2 spot.  This weekend we should all be huge Falcons, Packers, and Titans fans lol. 

Some interesting things I found from using the playoff machine

  • For Cowboys to get in , they would have to win out , Detroit would need to drop at least 1 of their last 2, and would need one team out of the Saints, Panthers, Falcons to lose their last 2 games. I think this is highly unlikely, 6 seed will be Detroit or Atl depending on if the falcons lose out or not.
  • Panthers can easily miss the playoffs if we lose the next 2 games (10-6)
  • Saints can miss the playoffs if they lose the next 2 games (10-6)
  • Falcons can miss the playoffs if they lose the next 2 games (9-7)
  • The most likely senario to me is , all the good teams win out except us and the Falcons. Falcons lose to the Saints. We end up beating the Bucs but lose a close one to ATL playing for the #6 seed in the last game of the season.  This means we'd end up facing NO at their place in the wc, with Falcons going to LA to play the Rams in the other wc.

 

In short , these last two week are absolutely crucial. Tampa Bay is NOT a trap game, its actually a playoff game pretty much. Because of we lose out, we could miss the playoffs entirely. The last game against ATL will likely determine quite a lot and could be a battle for the division crown, or just a fight to simply not get knocked out of the playoff race entirely.

Could...Ummm you mean will be the number two seed after this weekend!

It’s still possible, given the hate between the Packers and Vikings and the elements at Lambeau, but wouldn’t bet on it.  With Rodgers it woulda been likely.

The packers fuged us by shutting Rodgers down. It was bullshit anyway they activated him just to play us and fill a NFL storyline. 

Yea story line or trying to make the Playoffs which was still on the table last week end and not now kind of a BIG difference

The Packers are fuging anyone. Just because we're dumb enough to play our injury hampered franchise QB when we're out of playoff contention doesn't mean that other organizations are as well.

Don’t disagree, but even last year I was “OK” with Cam playing in an identical spot as the Packers are this week vs the Falcons.

Playing him in week 17 vs the Bucs...:mad:

The moment we were mathematically eliminated, Cam should've been transitioned into 100% rehab mode. Had that happened, maybe we would've realized he needed surgery sooner and been that many weeks ahead of schedule compared to where we actually were this year with Cam clearly playing well under 100% for about half the season.

If guys are healthy, play them. But if you're mathematically eliminated and guys are hurt, pull the plug.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By GOAT · Posted

      5 straight completions in the 4th quarter to get into the red zone and then score a stand up rushing TD and celly in one of the best defenses faces to bring the score within 1 possession against the super bowl champs is "stunned" to you?

      yes, if you read what I said - that was due to his record breaking 245 yard 4th quarter performance in garbage time when the Seahawks were already celebrating. If Bryce puts up big numbers in the 4th quarter, people like you are quick to call it garbage time stats but seem to get selective when other QB's do it because it doesn't fit your narrative.  also, I'm logical enough to admit that Drake is a great QB and his performance had a lot to do with his protection, play calling, and other aspects. The game does not fall completely on the QB. Just like how the Panthers were still in the game vs Seattle until Horn's penalty changed that. It is a team sport, so many factors, players, refs, coaches are involved and it only takes one thing to change the game. the obsession with Bryce is just nauseating at this point and if you pay attention on here, it's the same 10 users quoting and pieing each other. it's super weird and everywhere else you go, opinions on Bryce are trending upwards. the way the season ended, the vibe at the stadium, the performance, should have everyone excited about this next season. Idk, maybe I just look at life and my entertainment outlets differently than others.
