say we do run the table and end up with a 9-7 record (unrealistic)-

here is what would (realistically) need to happen for us to make the playoffs:

Carolina 5-7

@NE - W

MIN - W

@NYG - W

NO - W

9-7

Green Bay 7-4 (currently #6 WC)

BAL - L

@CHI - L - absolutely need CHI to win

@PIT - L

SEA - W

@ARZ - L

8-8

NY Giants 7-5

PHI - L

@WASH - W

CAR - L

@MINN - L

8-8

Atlanta 6-6

NO - L - absolutely need NO to win

@JETS - W

BUF - W

@TB - W

9-7

San Fran 5-7

ARZ - L

@PHI - L

DET - W

@STL - W

7-9

Chicago 5-7

GB - W

@BAL - L

MIN - L

@DET - W

7-9

so in the end:

9-7 CAR (we would own the tiebreaker over ATL)

9-7 ATL

8-8 NYG

8-8 GB

7-9 SF

7-9 CHI

Interesting, as much as I'm trying to fight it...the optimist in me is rising to the surface....ATL may very well lose to the Jets and Bills, unless they get their players back...and Matty Ice wasn't exactly on fire before he got hurt.

I agree with the above, Philly's most likely gonna lock up wildcard or division, so there is realistically only one spot out there, and GB would have to sh*t the bed from here on out.

that's a playoff generator and you can mess around with wins and losses.

it honestly doesn't seem too far fetched, our chances are definitely still there. I hate getting my hopes up, though. :[

It doesnt seem far fetched that we are going to win out against New England, Minny, NY and NO?

damn. thats actually not as bleak as i thought.

of course, we have to actually WIN some of these games coming up... but if we can beat the patriots, we can beat the vikings, the giants, and - maybe - the saints.

if we're 8-7 and still in the running by week 17, and we're playing an undefeated Saints team, it will be a HUGE game.

Not as bad as I orginally thought. The two obvious hurdles are us winning out and Green Bay losing several.

Question: Could we also beat Green Bay if they happen to lose only three times to Chicago, Seattle, Arizona. This way they have three more losses to NFC oppnonets. Or would they still have a better confrence record?

    • Immediately cast blame? We had been talking about the bad throws to Hunter (the missed TDs and hospital ball) for days leading up to that injury report.   And yeah, the rib injury then becomes something to point out.  and you are getting desperate with this projected extremism.  No one  said you should never throw seams.  I shared with you an article after you scoffed at seams being routes you can get hung out to dry on….and it was the best of the best talking about the dangers of those routes.   And they talked about it because they threw them a lot and there dudes were at risk so the throws really matter.  Because you can hurt your receivers.  we disagree, cool.  I got a pro Bryce former NFL QB calling it a hospital ball and bad throw.  So I got a plus +1 making my argument.  Find a QB that backs your take. 
    • You exclusively highlighted Hunter's name on the injury report and then immediately cast blame. I've pointed out that this wasn't the hospital ball you claim it to be while also acknowledging that there could have been another option to target instead of Renfrow. By everything you've expressed here, you don't think seam routes should ever be thrown. I don't know how that helps the already struggling offense, but I do know that it would make it even worse than it already is. Scapegoating never has and never will solve anything. Tell you what: Try not blaming Bryce or casting shade his way for the entire week after Arizona and instead look at the other 21 starters and assess what they're doing (again, without shading Bryce). I'll join you and refrain from exploring what the rest of the team is doing and will focus solely on what Bryce needs to do better. Deal? This is a sincere peace offering to allow us to explore the other's perspective and perhaps be even more informed football fans.
    • TMac PI throw was a TD too.  Bryce just drastically under threw it.  Renfrow and TMac set themselves up to BOTH have great days.   the story of last of no one was open…..isn’t a defense the Bryce Young defenders can use so far this year
