Playoffs!


Leeroy Jenkins PhD

Recommended Posts

What’s that? Ah — Playoffs? Don’t talk about — playoffs? You kidding me? Playoffs? I just hope we can win a game!

Now, I am not saying this is likely. But after our win today and losses by the Bears, Falcons, Tampa, and possibly Giants and Lions, it is actually still a possibility!!!!

If Carolina can win the next 4 games, (ATL, @ Houston, Bucs, @ Nawlins)

and 2 of the following things don't happen

The Lions, Bears, and Falcons win more than 1 game.

The Giants win more than 2 games

The Seahawks win more than 3 games

We could go into the Tie-breaker for the wildcard seat:

1. Head-to-head, if applicable.

2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.

3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games, minimum of four.

4. Strength of victory.

5. Strength of schedule.

I would say our chances are about 1 in a million, but I am saying there is a chance. :D It's like thinking your going to win the lottery. Its so much fun to dream about.

it's possible, but even so, 8-8 isn't gonna get you a wild card berth this year even if those two do collapse. =|

That's actually not quite true. If those two do collapse-and keep in mind both have to win to eliminate us, not just one, and Chicago is looking like they may do it and Det continues to flirt with collapse-the chances of us making the playoff are quite good. Atlanta is the only othe major threat with the way NY is playing, and we would hold the tiebreaker over them if we do our part.

Just keeping the masses informed.

    • I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.
    • Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.
    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
