Why not dream a little --- you never know --- playoffs

i could be mistaken but i believe the first tie breaker is head to head not conference record so the bears lions and bucs would lose to us in that situation but i believe were all grasping at straws because we finally won a damn game

So do we need the Cowboys to win tonight or the Seahawks?

i believe the cowboys winning would help our cause more than the seahawks because assuming we win out we would take the tie breaker over the cowboys due to a tie in the head to head and in all probability a better division record but a seahawks loss puts them and the rams at six and six and gives us a better chance at one of them losing three of there last four and finishing at 7-9 behind us but its all speculation we still have to beat the 11-1 eagles then run the table not likely but we can hope

last week werent we talking about getting another top 5 pick

isn't talking about football fun :D

The tide has changed my friend. Didn't you hear? We're the the best team in the league after last Sunday.

Optimism is much more fun than talking about the draft in early December!

Head to head only counts if there are only two teams tied with similar records. If more than one team has the same record, it goes to conference records. Since the only way the skins get in is by being 8-8, expect a multi team tie.

As for the buc, bears and lions, we win b/c of our better conference record. (IF we go 8-8).

I am with Ramseyfan, I think IF we beat the eagles we have a good shot at making the playoffs. the two teams that may edge us are the 2nd place team in the west or Carolina. We have the tiebreakers against everybody else AND all the other contenders play someone who they shoulld lose to.

BUT as I have been saying elsewhere FIRST beat Philly, then we'll talk playoffs.

Philly is sky high right now. It will take a better game than we played against the Giants to beat them.

All i can think about now is the Philly game.....

Play strong defense, playoff discussions will escalate even more
