What about Arizona losing to Detroit today. Was that not an easy game?

How can the saints be an automatic win for Tampa when they haven't beaten the saints since Brady became QB
I knew Murray and the Cardinals were overrated. Pie in your face for believing they were good.

Brady & the Buccaneers are not the overrated Murray and the Cardinals.
And you thought Tampa would beat Washington?

What about Brady 0-3 record against the saints..... don't matter, huh. No way Tampa will lose another game. They have the greatest offense and defense and no team has a chance...... got it

Dallas won't be able to throw deep passes in a cold, windy, potentially snowy Lambeau environment.

Prescott's splits in cold weather vs. warm or indoors are pretty gargantuan. Today another one of those cold, windy days, though nothing like Northeast Wisconsin in mid-late January.

Environment does matter, like it or not. Prescott, born and raised in the Deep South, was able to post good stats at Tampa in week 1 against a great defense for a reason. Denver stinker loss aside, he's been superb at home. Arizona and LA play indoors and TB plays in a toasty winter environment.

There's one stadium that a Dak Prescott-led offense does not want to go to in January, under any circumstances... it's not Jerryworld, either.


Pretty much every playoff game Packers lose nowadays is at home. I said when they are clicking. Dak doesn't have to throw it all over the field if we are running the ball and getting turnovers. We wont lose because of the environment. We will lose because we dont make the right block or our receivers continue to drop easy passes they should catch or because our kicker is erratic. It wont be due to some cold air and some snowflakes. That is just an easy excuse.

I'm not surprised. Cardinals are overrated, and they have proven it with back-to-back losses. Looks like your head is full of crap.
Im never surprised when a team beats another team. However, not a single person predicted Detroit to beat Arizona and you trying to say you did makes you look like a clown for lying

I'll be happy with we aren't the 4 seed. When it comes to the playoffs, that week off isn't always great unless you have injured players trying to come back.

For the number 1 seed it absolutely helped Dallas

It did not.

Because the Cowboys needed to win out anyway. So in that process they would have had the tie breaker over the Cards.

But the problem is the Bucs. The Bucs have the tiebreaker over Dallas. So Dallas either needs to have the Bucs lose twice (unlikely) or have the Bucs lose once and the Cowboys have another team finish with them in a three way tie.

You had two chances for a three way tie - the Cowboys, Bucs and Packers. Or the Cowboys, Bucs and Cards. But now the Cards are out if the Cowboys beat them, ergo, there is now only one way for a three way tie. If the Bucs lose once and the Cowboys win out THEY NEED A THIRD TEAM to get the Cowboys to get the #1 seed. They had two teams that could do that - the Packers and Cards. Now they only have one team left that realistically can be that third team.

Where did I say Detroit would beat Arizona? You're making up crap to justify your stupidity. I said I was not surprised the Cardinals lost, because I've always known they are overrated. Got it? Understand English?

Exactly.

Once again, the Rams still have 4 losses so they technically can - but the Rams have a hard schedule to end the season and likely won't win out.

A bunch of games Haha

Only 1 game a piece, far from a bunch of games

You are missing the point.

Yes, we need the Bucs and Pack to lose one more game and we win out. However, if the Pack lose two, and we finish tied with the Bucs we lose out. So if we finish 13-4 and the Bucs finish 13-4, we need a THIRD TEAM to finish 13-4. With the Cards losing today, if we get to 13-4, that means the Cards then have a minimum of 5 losses. They can't be that third team we need tied at 13-4. So that leaves one team that can help us - the Packers. If the Packers also finish 13-4, that helps us. But if the Packers happen to lose twice and finish 12-5, then that screws us as the Bucs have the head to head over us.

You guys really need to look at the standings and tiebreakers. The Cards losing today does not help us unless you expect, at the very minimum, the Bucs to lose two more games. Look at their schedule. They aren't.

That's not true either. Rams can win that division.

GB
Arizona
Tampa
Dallas
Rams

All have the same record if GB and Tampa lose this week

Its highly unlikely that dallas and Tampa will be the only two teams to finish with the same record.

Arizona losing today absolutely helped Dallas

I already explained to you that you're wrong


If Tampa and GB lose this week you have 5 teams with the same record.

Arizona and Rams would be tied in their division. So with Arizona losing today it brings another team into it that can help Dallas

Again how does Arizona losing help Dallas? The more teams that have a chance to finish with the same record (likely 4 losses) the better.

I mean think of this logically.

If Dallas need two teams teams to finish 13-4 with them, which scenario gives them a better shot?

Two teams in the pool or four?

You do realize Dallas plays Arizona right? So for Dallas to get to 13-4, that means they have to win out. If Dallas wins out, the Cards have a minimum of 5 losses now. They can't help and be one of the teams that makes a three way tie with us and the Bucs at 13-4.

We needed Arizona to have only three losses when we played them if we wanted them to help us to get in a three way tie if the Bucs finished 13-4.
