Is Anyone Else Getting That '05 Season Vibe?

See JLC's latest update -root for the Falcons tonight! We are close to the driver's seat for that 2nd wild card. Chances are good that if we win out we're in. Much like in 05 our conference record & tie breakers are a strength.

I don't know if I'm "feelin it" YET, but after only a 1 game win streak it's hard to feel it. If we beat the g-men, which I believe we can, we're all gonna start to talk next week about... Playoffs!
Remember in 05, that 5 game wining streak was preceded by losses in 4 of 5 games, much like our 4 game losing streak this year.

Question: If both the Saints and us win out, who makes it?

I think the Saints due to better conference record

Correct. They would be 8-4 and we 7-5.

Ah, lame. Stupid Saints need to lose too. They deserve a playoff nod even less than we do.

Worry not. The Saints would be lucky as hell to do any better than 2-2 here on out. They are really, really bad.

Arizona has a soft schedule that includes the Saints...we have them if we win out, but if we don't win out, then I don't know. They could win their final three really easily.

I still think 8-8 gets us in, provided we beat the Vikings.

The Saints are not really really bad. Atl is really really bad. Saints are probably better than we are.

The Saints remaining 4 games are in the NFC. If they win out they will be 9-7 like the Skins, if the Skins win out, so both the Saints and the Skins would be 9-7. They will not and have not played each other so the head to head tiebreaker will not apply. The Saints would be 8-4 in the NFC and the Skins would be 7-5, so the Saints would get that last Wildcard spot. Nothing the Skins can do but win out and hope the Saints lose at least one game, then both teams would be 7-5 in the NFC and the next tiebreaker is common games, which is too complicated to figure at this point. The Skins have a very tough 3 game streach. I don't realistically see us beating the Vikings at home right now, but I think we could be the Giants and maybe the backup Cowboys in week 17.

What if the g-men, Saints & us end up 9-7? The g-men have us, Buffalo & NE left. I could see them losing all 3.

I feel like we are going to do I'm catching that same '05 vibe!!!

What about when the skins lose sunday night, what scenarios need to play out for the skins to get in?

If the Skins lose Sunday I would think we are pretty much done as far as getting into the playoffs.

Well, I don't see how that could happen. You guys have the "Shittiest Team in World" and will be "Kicked out of NFL forever" next year!

Ha ha, j/k. Good luck Sunday!

They do! But even the blind squirrel finds a nut on occassion. The Giants were that blind squirrel 9 times this year, fortunately it was during a 13-week span!!!

My only question is, who is our first round opponent?
