If this holds true, we may be outside looking in as when 3 more teams are tied (I am sure some NFC South teams will be 10-6), conference records come into play, I think.

Then why don't you avoid that issue by putting a W for us against the Eagles. :p

and while you're at it put a W next to Pit as well :p
 
And all L's for the giants, skins and eagles. Even the head to head games.

Maybe if, say, Washington Dallas and Tampa Bay are all 10-6 and the Skins ahve the better conference record, then only the Skins and Bucs are compared to each other. If the Skins have a better conference record then Dallas would be in over Tampa by virtue of head to head tiebreaker.

Looking at Atlanta's schedule you'd have to say there is question that they will go 10-6

Man that is a difficult schedule for the Falcons. That might even be 9-7.
 
Dangling from the end of a rope in an unheated studio apartment above a bowling alley. Oh wait, that's how my life will end. My bad.

Classic! :bow:

I was thinking of various movie lines but the one that seemed to fit was from the Princess Bride:

"All right. Where is the poison? The battle of wits has begun. It ends when you decide and we both drink, and find out who is right... and who is dead."

The season will end with Jerry Jones with a big grin on his face holding up yet another Lombardi Trophy! :lombardi:

Fixed it for you.
 
This one is so ours! It's literally most of the teams above us, minus a few, who have to keep miracle seasons alive. We just have to return to our potential. So they can keep trying to pull magical rabbits out of their hats, and I'll see how far that gets them in the end. A "Cinderella" team or two is reasonable, but not 75% of the teams. Real bottoms should start falling out any moment now. And just as we regain our stride. The odds are actually more with us doing what has been expected over them all continuing to do amazing feats. In fact if an "amazing feat" is set to come, it's most likely to come from our team full of pro bowlers not some who's who squad of misfits.
