Its going to take 13-3 just for a bye.....

[noletime95]

Either Seattle or TB (maybe both) will go 12-4 and would have the tie break over Dallas.

Of course, that just takes 2-2 from here out from Dallas, but it would be nice to wrap up that bye.....

 

[theogt]

I don't think either team will get to 12-4.

 

[Doomsday]

They both have really weak schedules, but I dont see how Dallas could possibly lose 3 more games.

 

[Mansta54]

Me either!!!

 

[SDogo]

I'm really not impressed with the Bucs. They have lost every game against a team over .500 they have played this year. Seattle has been escaping by the skin on their teeth.

 

[BiffWellingtonIII]

why would they have the tie break

How would they have the tie break over the Cowboys?

How would they have the tie break over the Cowboys?

Good question. I find it hard to believe both would.

 

[smarta5150]

Even if it takes a 13-3 record it shouldn't matter.

We should go at least 14-2.

 

[noletime95]

Since Dallas played neither team and both are not in the east, conference record would be the determining factor. Dallas is 3-1 vs the AFC. TB lost to both Jax and TB. Seattle lost to CLE and Pit. As a result, each would have a superior conf. record by one game if they win out.

Thats what I would like to know when were are undefeated in the division.

we are 8-0 in the conference. If we win at least two more we would have 10 conference wins....

can tampa or seattle get to 10 conference wins, I am too lazy to look it up.

 

[noletime95]

Remaining schedules for both teams:

Seattle: AZ, @ Car, BAL, @ ATL
TB: @ Hou, ATL, @ SF, CAR

If bot teams win next week, they have excellent shots to go 12-4. And I bet they are both favored.

We win two more we have 13 wins and neither Seattle or TB can catch us.

Go Cardinals and Texans(not long shots at all)

 

[noletime95]

If Dallas goes 12-4, its conference record would be 9-3.
TB and Sea would each be 10-2.

That makes no sense.

How does more losses equate to superior record?

 

[windward]

All Dallas has to do is split the last four to get a bye.

 

[zrinkill]

If Dallas goes 12-4, its conference record would be 9-3.
TB and Sea would each be 10-2.

So Tampa and Sea are both gonna go undefeated and we are gonna get beat 3 out of 4 times?

Wow ....... great logic there.

 

[windward]

That makes no sense.

How does more losses equate to superior record?

It does. If both team have the same record and one has a better nonconference record, then the team with the better nonconference record has to have a worse conference record
