Ok, I know playoff talk is silly, but...

Playoff talk is a little silly, but until we're officially eliminated what the hell.

It is silly, but it really isnt THAT far fetched.....

If this happens today, New Orleans over TB and Arz over St.L
AND
This happens next week, Washington over Dallas, Philly over St.L, TB over Car and Atl over NO.....


We own the last wildcard spot!!!

NO and TB are tied 7-7 and ARZ is up on St.L 17-7. So both of those can go our way, look at next week. The only one that would really be a huge upset would be TB over Car!!! :dallas:

Ok so let's just say the gods smile on us and somehow we sneak in. We would likely face the winner of the horrible NFC West, the Rams or the Seahawks. Not a bad first round game at all.

Ok I'm done now, back to reality.

Then you know where were going back to if all that happend.... BACK TO PHILLY!!!

Hell Matty, should I order us a couple of Superbowl Tickets??

Thank the heavens it is still possible. At least we are starting to Peak so if we get into the playoffs (Jansen returns also) it is quite possible to run the board and get to the big game. :headbange

Okay, so what happens now that AZ took STL and NO lost to TB?

I'll explain the perdiciment after the games are complteded. The Arz/Stl game appears over, but the NO/TB game is just getting interesting.

LOL!! I cant belive I'm the guy thats gonna be the one to break it down here, but here it is!

The Skins can overtake the wildcard spot next week, with the follwing things happening.....

Washington Redskins Win @ Dallas Cowboys
Cincinati Bengals(home) Win vs New York Giants
Tampa Bay Buccaneers win @ Carolina Panthers
Atlanta Falcons win @ New Orleans Saints
Philedalphia Eagles win @ St. Louis Rams

If those five things happen next week, we will, LOL, control our own destiny to get into the playoffs. And really, you have to think Cinci is the favorite vs NYG, Atlanta is the favorite vs New Orleans, the Eagles could put their pee wee squad out and beat St. Louis. I think we'll be favored vs Dallas, but that means nothing in this rivalry.
So really the only stretch is Tampa Bay beting Carolnia (Panthers won the first contest 21-14 in Tampa Bay).

I've said it before, I'll say it again, no 7-9 team should make it into the playoffs. However, if its the Redskins, I'll take it. There is defintley hope.

Gmac - assuming that happens next week, do we NEED anyone to lose in order for us to make it? Or just us beating the Vikes. Assuming one of those teams we need to win loses, for example the bucs, are we still eliminated or just need another blend of fortunate events?

If what I wrote happens next week, we control our own desinty.

The only way we are eliminated next week is by:
A Redskins Loss OR A Panthers Win AND A Saints Win.
