A wild card still a SLIGHT possibility.

If im not mistaken tiebreakers are determined by division W-L record. As it stands we are 1-3 in our division but if we win out that means we will end up 3-3 in our division. Green Bay will get the 1st wild card spot, there is no denying that. The Seahawks, Bucs and Vikings have 6 wins. The Seahawks are 0-3 in their division, Vikings 2-1 and Bucs 2-2 in the division. Here are some instances we make the playoffs.

The most ideal situation is we win out and the Bucs, Vikings and Seahawks only winning 1 more or nomore games the rest of the season,we finish 8-8 and get a wild card.

The 2nd instance and this is a little more feasible. Bucs and Vikes just win 1 more game, Seahawks win 2 more and both us and the Seahawks are 8-8 and we win the tiebreaker because we have more wins in our division.

Yes I know this is extremely unlikely, but humor me. The fact we are not officially eliminated from playoff contention is the only last thing I can cling on to this season.

I thought it was based on division W-L record 1st

TO BREAK A TIE FOR THE WILD-CARD TEAM

If it is necessary to break ties to determine the two Wild-Card clubs from each conference, the following steps will be taken.

If the tied clubs are from the same division, apply division tie breaker.

If the tied clubs are from different divisions, apply the following steps.

Two Clubs

1. Head-to-head, if applicable.

    • Bryce has been playing the best ball of his career the last three games IMO. He wasn't the reason we dropped the game in NOLA. Seattle's defense will be his toughest challenge yet this season 
    • I'll be at the game Sunday and up until last year I had a perfect attendance record. Now however I have seen us lose to the Chiefs (last year) and the Bills (this year). So we can no longer rely solely on my ability to pound overpriced beers to propel us to a win. 
    • I haven't been able to watch Seattle on a dedicated basis but the Seahawks are a much better team by the all accounts: eye test, record and DVOA. Defensively they are sick. Best DVOA in the league first in rushing and second in passing. Offensively their passing game has been on fire this year led by JSN I can easily see this being like the Buffalo game where things just get out of hand for us early, that being said this league really is week to week and Seattle does have the disadvantage of traveling cross country for an early game.  If and big if, the Panthers are able to effectively run the ball and limit the amount of time Seattle's offense has to generate explosive plays we have a path to winning this game.  Seattle fans won't be happy to hear this but bad Darnold is always lurking in the background. He is truly an enigma to root for bc he will have an incredible throw that only a few people can make but then will turn around and throw the most bone headed pick of all time.  I think ultimately we drop this one as ultimately it's human nature to be looking forward to that week 18 game. But man how special would it be to be leaving the stadium on Sunday with a win and a miracle dolphins upset
