ESPN’s playoff machine lends a different result and I tend to favor them, especially over a a fan article.

If you mess with the machine and input the following results:

Cards over Bucs

Panthers over Bucs

Eagles over Saints

Falcons over Cardinals

Saints over Panthers

Falcons over Bucs

The Saints, Panthers, and Falcons all finish 7-10 and the Saints advance.

If you do these results:

Cards over Bucs

Panthers over Bucs

Eagles over Saints

Falcons over Cardinals

Saints over Panthers

Bucs over Falcons

The Panthers advance in a head to head tie over the Saints.

In order to advance next week, the Cards need to close this one out, the Panthers need to win, the Eagles need to win, and the Cardinals need to beat the Falcons.

It doesn’t matter what the falcons do cause the panthers will still have more wins within the division.

this what I've been saying, A lot of things would have to happen for us to not make the playoffs and win next week, but it is possible.  We need to take care of #1, win next week is top priority.

That doesn’t matter if there’s a three team tie…. Not sure what you aren’t understanding about that.

In a three team tie you don’t just eliminate one of the teams, you look at the head to head record among all three teams.

New Orleans would be 3-1 (one loss to the Panthers)

Panthers would be 2-2

Falcons would be 1-3

So yes, the Falcons are mathematically eliminated but they can actually help the Saints if they win their remaining two games and create a three way tie.

    • Down to Carolina and Washington for Ehlers. 
    • Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
    • Have to pair them like this for it to work, imo. Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Walker Ghosty - Chatfield    I'd prefer something different but that's probably what we end up with unless Ghost is traded to one of the 17 teams not on his MNTC.
