We are 4-1 in our last 5 games. I had no idea, feels more like 3-2.

Judging by the tone around here during that time, you weren't the only one. Just yesterday we had threads swearing we'd lose-out and that we had the worst coach in the league. Though, to be fair, at that point we'd only won 3-of-4.
When asked whether Jason Garrett is the right head coach for this team: "I don't think there is anyone else that could. I think he is an unbelievable coach. We've responded to him and he has made us better football players, better people. If you watch us I think we play with a certain relentless spirit." --Sean Lee

Just going by straight winning percentage to pick all the games on the playoff generator and us winning against the Redskins in the final week, we're in.

I'd take that.

Someone give me a realistic scenario that has them getting in at 9-7, because I don't see it. Those losses to SEA and CHI really sting now.

They pretty much have to run the table. Or hope NYG chokes and loses 2 of their last 3.

If the Giants finish 9-7, and the Skins are 9-6(we beat Philly and Cleveland) with Dallas 8-7(you lose either one of your next 2), going into the week 17 game at Fedex, then the winner of the Fedex game goes in. So you would be in at 9-7.

We also have the highest rated defense/offense combo in the division.

That would be a pretty awesome scenario. Talk about high-pressure.

What is scary is that there is a scenario where we could be 10-6 and not get in.

That would be really disappointing!

That game is the least of my worries. Their defense is horrible and their offense can move the ball but Brees makes so many mistakes and takes so many risks I'm not worried. If it were in New Orleans yeah I'd be a little worried but at home I'm not. I know that sounds weird because we don't play well at home but New Orleans is a mess.

NY has back-to-back road games against the 11-2 Falcons and the 9-4 Ravens. It wouldn't be that strange for them to lose both games.

It's division or bust.


Don't get your hopes up unless we beat Pitt. If we beat Pitt then I think you can start to believe.

Yep. It wouldn't be strange for them to lose both of them. However, I just have a feeling that they'll pull out atleast one of them. That team has a horseshoe up their a** and always seem to win a few ballgames they have absolutely no business winning.

I'm inclined to think that we have to win out to have a chance to get in. It is very possible to maybe lose one more and get in, but like I said, I just have a feeling New York will get that streak of luck again. We have the chance to take care of Washington. Who really knows what will happen.

Going by how they have been playing, I expect them to win one of them
