Dallas can clinch the east next week?

How does 12-3-1 beat 12-4? Isn't that tie half a win? That doesn't make any sense to me.

Not sure what's confusing. 3 losses and 1 tie beats 4 losses. A tie is better than a loss.

If you view that tie as half a win, that gives them 12.5 wins. How would that not beat 12 wins?

Oh, Damn. I'm ********. Total Blonde moment right there. Carry on.

Not sure about that, Tampa just beat Seattle and Commanders offense is on fire. Both SD and Arizona have losing records. It doesn't really matter we're going to the playoffs regardless, it's like a 1% chance we don't.

Yes they are. But Rivers can beat anyone on any given night. Tampa will have to travel cross country for that one as well like Seattle did to them. Zona is alwaysa tough place to play. The Commander defense is a sure bet to get Palmer back on track and David Johnson should eat them up.

He's talking about next week, i believe your scenario is still this week.

I thought I said that. Yes if NYGs lose tomorrow and we beat them the following week then we clinch the East. The best the Skins can finish is 11-4-1. If we win next week the worst we can do is 12-4.

both have 12 wins, and seattle has less losses, so they would win @12-3-1

If we clinch the #1 seed next week, Dak is going to still play full games until, maybe, the second half of the Eagles game.
Dak is a rookie. He needs all the reps he can get, especially headed into the playoffs.
You don't put him on the shelf for the second half of games.
This is Dak's team now. Garrett and company aren't going to insert Romo into games out of sympathy. No one says that Mark Sanchez should get reps in case we need him in the playoffs.
We shouldn't say it about Romo either.

Well 1 half would keep him in the groove, and not wear him down, and less chance of him
getting hurt.
I dont know what they will do, have to wait and see, but I think there is a good chance we
see Romo take over at some point in these games, or even start one.

Lets beat the giants 1st though !!!!!

True, but if giants beat pitt and us, then what??
Skins are WC, eagles are done, it is all about dallas and giants for the div title.

I get the pitt giant game on tv here in metro, so will watch and root for pitt, but
that will be hard as I dont like pitt!
Will watch the detroit game too, they are future competition.

NY will be 10-3 and we'll be 11-2 up 1/2 game. We'll still have an 84% chance of being the #1 seed.

ok if that happens, then we would need to just win same # of games the giants do to maintain
that lead.
I dont think the giants will win out, they will lose at least 1 or 2 games.
Seattle may lose too,
and Dallas wont lose more than 1 if that.

I believe Giants will lose out. They are playing .500 type football.

Every time I see your user name I think of "Tiny Dancer" from Elton John, Miley. It's been killing me.

That is all. Carry on, Zoners. Lol
