They control their own destiny if they dont lose any games.......................If we lose to the Saints, the Eagles then control their own destiny because if they win out (including a week 17 win over us) they will be the division champs.
Now if they lose another game, then destiny of the division will swing back to us until we lose again.................so on and so forth.
That is why you need help to win a division title, it lowers the number of wins you need to clinch............................a lot easier to win the division at 10-6 compared to 12-4.
That is my point.
