Could Cowboys run the Table after Philly?

[CATCH17]

I don’t even want to think about that.

Right now I just want us to get a right end blocked and see the other teams punter.

Could Cowboys run the Table after Philly?

 

[Super_Kazuya]

lets say Carolina, holds the tiebreaker, Atlantas win against Dallas head to head would have no bearing at that point right?

Right, no bearing. They have to settle division ties first.

Right, no bearing. They have to settle division ties first.

that's kind of what I thought too. thank you!

 

[Elziegreat83]

Right, no bearing. They have to settle division ties first.

got another scenario for ya!
What if Dallas is tied at 10-6 with the Rams and Falcons for a wildcard spot? Dallas obviously lost to both, would that automatically eliminate them?

Let’s win a game without Lee and Smith before wasting any time thinking about tie breakers. Of course I want to run the table after the Ugles game, but with this coaching staff, I hate to say it, but extremely doubtful. Our talent level needs to be superior to other teams to win. With Lee and Smith out we have comparable talent to the teams were playing, but that’s not good enough to win with our coaching. Still hoping though. Wouldn’t it be awesome if we had a head coach who cared more about putting a smart game plan together than cheerleading. Motivating is so much less important than putting a smart game plan together. See Belicheat.

You aren't the boss of me!

Okay, your right. Waste your time if you want to.

Sorry about the double post. Tried to add smiley face with second post, but it didn’t show up. Sorry

If the Vikes, Rams, and Seahawks keep winning, Philly may need that last game for home field. I hate to say this, but our best chance of grabbing a WC spot may depend on Philly getting home field before week 16 while the other teams mentioned beat themselves up along with the Panthers and Falcons.

 

[cowboyblue22]

they will win somewhere between 7 and 9 wins so no I don't think they make the playoffs there coaching staff is just not proven that they can adjust face adversity and win when its important

 

[jwooten15]

We did win 11 in a row last year.

That being said, do I think we'll run the table after Philly this year? Absolutely not haha

 

[Verdict]

If the won-loss records, the head to heads, and the conference records are all ties or inapplicable? Then I think it goes won-loss in common games. Then strength of victories (number of wins of teams each team beat). Then strength of schedule overall, I believe.

My head hurts just reading that. Lol

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Wait until next year. lol

 

[TellerMorrow34]

lets just say for example, dallas, Carolina, and Atlanta are 10-6. how does that scenario pan out?

Atlanta would be ahead of Dallas by virtue of a head to head victory over them.

 

[Elziegreat83]

Okay, your right. Waste your time if you want to.

Atlanta would be ahead of Dallas by virtue of a head to head victory over them.

even if the 3 teams are all 10-6 head to head would still matter?

 

[Ultra Warrior]

It's not looking likely but anything can happen. We can only hope the cards fall that way.

Yes it would. There is a rule that says if one team has lost to all of the other teams in the tie breaker, then you would eliminate that team and then run the tiebreaker steps again with the remaining teams.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

even if the 3 teams are all 10-6 head to head would still matter?

They would factor it in. So if I understand it right (And I could be wrong) in that situation Dallas would automatically be out because Atlanta would be ahead of them by virtue of the head to head win. So basically it comes down to Atlanta and Carolina then.
