The Perfect Week 14 to keep our playoff hopes alive


EgoDogg

Recommended Posts

I did this last week and pretty much everything went our way, except the most important thing -- us winning. Anyways, I'll do this until the playoffs begin or we're officially eliminated.

Games that matter
Panthers at Browns - 1:00 PM
Giants at Redskins - 1:00 PM
Eagles at Cowboys - 4:25 PM
Vikings at Seahawks - MNF

Bold = Who to root for if you still want a playoff birth

Playoff Standings if all goes according to plan

Games with little impact
Saints at Buccaneers - 1:00 PM
Falcons at Packers - 1:00 PM
Rams at Bears - 8:20 PM

Games that don't matter
Jaguars at Titans
Ravens at Chiefs
Colts at Texans
Patriots at Dolphins
Jets at Bills
Bengals at Chargers
Broncos at 49ers

We actually have a realistic shot IF we can take care of Atl and Cle and get one of the Saints games.  

Agreed. Despite the team forgetting how to win the last 4 weeks, the universe decided to keep us alive. The last 2 weeks were pretty much the NBA playoffs. Yeah, you can drop 1 or 2, but it's still possible to come back.

This week is pretty much sudden death for this team though. Lose it and you can all but kiss the season goodbye.

Sanchez is playing for washington now (lol).  Just need the Vikings to lose a couple and somehow finish 3-1.  Its now or never.

Vikings Remaining Games:
@ Seahawks
vs Dolphins
@ Lions
vs Bears

No actual gimmies in there. Just have to handle our own. Easier said than done as of late.

If you take our games out of the equation, we have a pretty realistic shot of making the playoffs.

Yeah if the season ended today and they swapped us for Washington b/c Buttfumble and then the head to head against Philly, they may let us in the college football playoff. But we'd be backing in and Oklahoma is sneaky.

Having been bored on a conference call, I had time to do this.  Here are the "in the hunt" teams for the wild card slots, their records, the record of their remaining opponents, and who their opponents are.  I don't know what it tells us other than if the Eagles manage to win their division or somehow grab a wild card, they will have earned it down the stretch.

All three NFCE teams are listed, even though one of them will elevate themselves off this list because the NFL will require that somebody wins the division.  I personally think the Redskins have a bigger hurdle than the Eagles because they are down to picking QBs off bar stools due to injuries.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
