A quick look at the current playoff picture

[jobberone]

The thread got more interest than I thought it would.

Why in the world would anyone be discussing a playoff picture 3 weeks before Thanksgiving?

You talk about that...............AFTER thanksgiving not the 1st week of november

Because its fun. It sure beats the pissing contests about if Romo is clutch or not, or 14 page threads about how our coach used to play backup here.

If we miss the playoffs, we are going to look back on the Detroit game and puke.

That didn't make you puke already?!

 

[dogberry]

Hmm, should I put up my chart for the 2016 playoffs?

well let me give you a playoff update

The eagles get to play a packers team without aaron rodgers next week which means we both will be tied at 5-5

It's a nice break from the blame Jerry, blame Garrett, blame Callahan, blame Romo threads.

Well how do you feel about us being tied with the eagles at 5-5 next week?

NFL is week to week. Get used to it.

Of course it did.

I am referring to us no longer having a "throw away game" since the eagles are playing a packers team with no rodgers.

So we have to win the last 3 games in November or we maybe done

Yeah, I get it. Next week looked like a certain loss for the Eagles, but one play changed that real quickly.

Don't start nuttin' won't be nuttin'.

I was just looking yesterday at the standings. It's about that time to start looking at future match ups and standings. Well, that or start another fire Garrett thread.

 

[jobberone]

Yeah, I'm tremblin' in me booties over facing Wallace.

This is supposed to be a light hearted thread. The playoff stuff is so convoluted I have to use the cheater. I'm glad Adam put that up there. I was looking for one but couldn't find what I wanted. I did fine one that shows a team's schedule when you put your cursor over it.

I'm fine with that. We beat the E-Gals already and look good in the tie-breakers. I didn't think the NO game was winnable anyway. After the NO game is the bye week followed by 3 games we should win.

 

[CowboysFanSince88]

And then they play the deadskins and can go into a bye at 6-5 while we are after losing to the Saints and Bears

I don't want to be tied with the eagles in november and december. It makes me uncomfortable

 

[jobberone]

I don't want to be tied with anyone. NO is going to be a handful. If you get Wilcox back and maybe Ware then our defense will look better. How much I don't know. If we play reasonably well on defense getting some pressure we might be in the game. Turnovers will help. Hopefully Brees doesn't have one of those OMG did you see that throw kind of night.

 

[Beast_from_East]

Even if you count New Orleans as a loss (which I already have), we just need to win our 3 remaining division games and there is virtually no way to lose the division. Now if we lose to the Saints, and we lose to the Bears, and we lose to either the Giants or Skins or both....................then all bets are off.

We need to go 4-3 at worst over these last 7 games to win the division..........lose more than 3 and it starts looking iffy.
