We can now hope we get some help from Dallas to beat Philly once/twice.(Dallas is finished...you can take them out of any Playoff scenarios)
This would be huge,if we can string some wins together.

Big games this weekend guys...
A bears win over philly
A Jags win over G-Men
A Falcons win over G.B.
and a Ravens win over Tampa
...with us beating Minny would be HUGE!!

We don't need them all,but even 1 or a couple will help us a bunch.
But no matter what....if we win this weekend,we're playing for 2nd place next week.

HTTR!!

Our best bet for the playoffs is any scenario that has us tied with the Packers, Bears and/or Bucs (assuming we can beat them in a few weeks) since we have a better head to head record with them. While a win this weekend would of course be big, we need to win at least one Giants game and the Bucs game far more. 9-7 will probably be good enough for the final NFC spot. The Bears, Giants and Bucs have brutal upcoming schedules and while we don't have an easy slate, by comparison it's not nearly as daunting.
