I don't think there is a "probably." The NFC South is about a 99.9% likelihood of being a 1 team playoff division.

Not statistically, logically. 

Remember when the NFC South was the toughest division (circa 2002-2006 when every NFC Championship game featured one of the four of us?)

I know. It's been a wild downfall.

Yea. Which means our odds are largely tied to being in 1st in the division.  I’d expect big swings based on the standings.

100%. It's really on what the Bucs do. We are probably gonna get the poo kicked out of us for the rest of the season(for the most part, I expect 1-2 more wins) and they have a significantly easier schedule. We are probably going to have to rely on them to fall apart. They haven't really looked particularly strong, TBH.

Barring some sort of collapse, it seems there will be at least 2 coming out of the North and at least 2 from the West. East will have 1. That's 5 of the 7 spots, 6 when the South winner is included. 

There is something to say for the final stretch of games, minus the Saints, are a gauntlet of playoff teams or playoff-caliber teams. If the Panthers get in, they will have proven on the field that they belong. If not, it will be the famous missed opportunities of Jacksonville, Arizona and New Orleans games.

Not sure you can call JAX (and even AZ) missed opportunities. JAX has a good chance of making the playoffs and AZ isn't as bad as their record shows

They are missed opportunities in that both were games that had a good chance for victory. Jacksonville does have a good chance at a playoff spot and would be in if the season ended today. 

Enough fans were buying into the nonsense of making the Superbowl because we began with Jacksonville.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      By strato · Posted

      I did a for instance quick look at the Green Bay game, stats and PFF.  102 yards passing, he graded 42 decimal point something I just glanced at it.   Probably not overrating him, it was one of the lowest scores for the team.   So I wasn’t being real accurate relative to that particular game with the over grading comment. But I don’t know, I still think there are probably other examples like what you cited where he did get some generous grades.

      Canales' O - Year 2

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I’m trying to see the light at the end of the playcalling tunnel, but don’t know if it will be there. If Canales passes off playcalling duties, I don’t see how he doesn’t give it to Idzik. I truthfully don’t know what Idzik does nor if he’s up for the job. I don’t see a world where Canales passes him over unless he’s instructed to, and I don’t get that feeling after making the playoffs in year two.  I also don’t want Canales calling plays anymore. I can’t tell if BY is holding him back or if his playbook is that predictable, vanilla and determined to create a new style of offense that is dominated by screens and checkdowns.   My gut says you plug 20 of 32 other starting NFL QBs not named Bryce in and this offense moves more. It’s wild because the times that Young does uncork it a bit, he has had more success….sans his signature out route lobs that have the zip of a paper airplane.
