i "think" its win + either an atl or cowgirls loss. need all but 1 8-5 nfc wildcard team to loose really and win ourselves (i know that much). we cant clinch the di unless we win, get a bucs loss, and likely need to win huge for points reasons. even then i think both the bucs and atl could still win the division.

win 2 and the bucs loose 1 and we get the division as well (if bucs win out we loose 1, idk the tiebreakers). win 3 and we get homefield.

I don't have the official list, but looking at the standings...

We're in with a win and a loss by two out of three following teams: Dallas, Philly, and Atlanta.

Because we are undefeated against the AFC, we don't hold any tiebreakers (our conference record would be worse, since they would have more NFC wins).

philly can win out and tie in the win department, we get 1 win, they cant pass us. only teams that can tie if we win 1 are dallas, and atl. so i still am going with them atm. after that idk tirbreakers on seeding. pure W-L record though that i think does it.

makes an intresting choice, go bucs or atl this weekend????

I believe if we beat the Broncos we get the division. Because TB and Atl have lost to them.

That isn't even close to being correct. An AFC win means very little to us, and if anything, the fact that we would be 4-0 against the AFC would hurt our chances in tiebreaker situations.

Even if Atlanta beats Tampa Bay and we win, we could all finish 11-5. Since we would all have three losses in the NFC South in that scenario, the next tiebreaker is conference record. Since our conference record would be the worst it could possibly be with an 11-5 record (7-5), we would lose the tiebreakers.

We can clinch the division in two weeks, but not this week.

i think in theory we can clinch homefield in 2 weeks as well (not counting on that one). if NY looses the next 2 we get #1 in the NFC. now i doubt that happens, but......

win next week is paramount

dallas has the giants, bucs and falcons go head to head. if we win, no matter what these games are good outcomes. the key matchups for not just us but the who playoff structure is these 3 weeks (14-16). most teams have a gimme in 17, atleast atl and the bucs. nyg have a testy one with the vikes, dallas with philly (but might not matter at this point).

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
