More FYI...

From what I read & understand...

* The last place team (if we lose) from NFC East will play at Detroit Lions and at home against the St. Louis Rams (wow that's be weird... identical to this year)

* The 3rd place team (if we win) will play at Green Bay Packers and at home against Seattle Seahawks

to me .... that's a HUGE difference, because of 2 things...

1) Obviously, we would have an easier schedule (Lions instead of Packers jumps out!) by losing & finishing last...

2) If we win Sunday and Dallas loses, THEY would be last place in division, meaning THEY would get to play Lions/Rams!! If we win & Dallas wins, then Eagles would play Rams/Lions.

Oh... Here is our exact schedule:

Home: Dallas, Philadelphia, NYG, Saints, Buccaneers, Broncos, Chiefs, same place finisher from NFC West

Away: Dallas, Philadelphia, NYG, Falcons, Panthers, Raiders, Chargers, same place finisher from NFC North
