Detroit????????

Yes, don't you recall all the preseason hype over the Detroit air attack, the improved defense, etc?

They were a trendy pick for NFC surprise contender. And they were expected to kick the crap out of us by many analysts.

My roomate, also a redskins fan thinks that there is a good possibility for there to be three NFC East teams in the Playoffs. While this is possible, Im not sure it is very probable. On the other hand if you look around the NFC the chances that it will happen look pretty good.

Second place in the NFC North is Detroit who we beat out in a tie.
Same thing in the west having beaten the Cards.

So it really comes down to Carolina and Tampa (At least at this point in the season), and we play Tampa, so beating them would also give us the tie in that situation.

All in all if we go 10-6 we could make the Wild Card even if New York beats us out, and it is possible that if we went 9-7 we could as well.

Like I said I am hesitant to buy into this, because you never know what is gonna happen throughout the rest of the season, I just wonder what you guys think as far as wether three NFC East teams will make the playoffs.

AS of today ....the Cowgirls,Giants and Skins would all make the playoffs.
