Wild Card Chances as Fall Back Option

So Seattle, Tampa, and the Vikings all lost today making them one game up on us. If the Saints lose to the 49ers today they will in the same group of teams tied. We beat Tampa, the Saints, and the Vikings. We will only be one game out of the wild card and hold several tie breakers. I want to win the division as much as anyone. What do you think it takes to win the wild card...8 games or 9?

minimum 9

All those loses also help the Cowboys out too.

Need the saints to lose also. They are our biggest threat IMO

I look at the cowboys they have to win out which includes beating us in the last game of the season. We control their destiny...

We can afford to lose one more game this season if we want to make the playoffs. 9 probably gets in and we've got head to head tiebreakers vs. everyone but Seattle among the likely contenders for the 6 spot. I think we beat the Giants but fall to the Ravens leaving the final 3 games to determine our fate.

I agree paintrain...

Sooo......WE'RE IN!!!!

If we play the way we have the past two weeks I think we have a good shot to get in. We still need the defense to play alittle more consistently, but I do think that is going to happen this year. The Rams and Panther losses earlier in the year really hurt right now...

Vikings play GB twice, Chi and Houston. So I'd say they won't be a threat.

Bucs have falcons, saints and broncos. Those are all probably 3 losses.

Seattle has an easy schedule ahead. Playing 3 division games and SF at home. They also play Chi.

Saints have giants, falcons, boys and bucs left.
