For what it is worth, Seattle still has to play:

at CHI
ARZ
at BUF
SF
STL

No give me games there.

Really?

The seahawks remaining schedule

bills

rams

niners

cards


Our remaining schedule

bengals

steelers

skins

saints


We would have to win 3 out of those last 4 and we all know that ain't happening. Plus seattle will win 3 out of their last 4

The End

No, I am saying they are not a shoe in for the last playoff spot. I believe NO or MIN have a better chance. The Cowboys are done.

If they beat the Bears in Chicago they got it. All they would have to do is go 2-2 in their last 4 games

Won't happen because they have a Rookie QB. 2-3 the rest of the season.

Just last week it was very plausible (almost a certainty) that the Cowboys would be in first place.

After-all, the Giants would get smoked by GB and no way we lose to the deadskins.
Everyone has a plan, until they get hit.

We don't necessarily need Seattle to finish a game behind us. We can win a three-team tiebreaker that includes us and Seattle.

Here is one example --

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/playoffs...6=40005110&17=

We would win the tiebreaker at 9-7 between us, Seattle and Tampa Bay.


Here's another scenario in which we tie Green Bay and Seattle at 9-7 --

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/playoffs...6=40001110&17=

In this case, Seattle would get the first wild card, we'd get the second, and Green Bay would be out of the playoffs.

Of course, all of these scenarios depend on teams winning or losing the right games, but the tiebreaker isn't as simple as us needing to finish one game ahead of Seattle in order to get a wild card. There are plenty of ways to get in without that happening.

Seattle is 0-3 in the division. yet you have them as a lock to go 2-1?

Seattle just lost at Miami , yet they are a lock to win at buffalo?
