Next 3 games could be viewed technically as playoff games

[rockj7]

On the break Nick was saying

GIANTS game if won could mean NFC East title

Bucs game could mean 1st round bye

Lions game could mean HFA throughout.

I don't think Nick understands what a playoff game is.

TM I think he was talking about each game has a huge meaning to it

 

[jazzcat22]

Each of those next 3 games all have playoff implications to all teams. As to making the playoffs, winning their divisions or one game closer to it.

Dallas, TB, Detroit, all for divisions and Ny, for a playoff spot, and still even for the divison.

If Giants lose, and then if they lose 2 more, they could miss the playoffs at 9-7, but it it sure be nice if they lose out and ,is at 8-8, as long as one of the teams slipping in, is not the Commanders. But then it may be Vikings or Packers too..

 

[Ring Leader]

Maybe we should name this scenario. Kind of like the made-up "lose or go home" games.

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

Well, win this weekend, probably first round bye. Next week, HFA

Nick lost all credibility when he said the Patriots would blow out the Giants 45-0 in 2008.

I believe his exact words to Dereck Eagleton at the time was "Blow Out..........BLOW OUT!!!!"

Derek was like......what? Blow Out?

Nick was like..........."BLOW OUT!!!".

Patriots lost to Giants 17-14.

Have not listened or read a word from him since.

 

[jobberone]

Yes, let's call them important games relating to playoff seeding as well as making the playoffs.

 

[SDCowboy]

These are not win or go home games, and we've clinched a playoff spot. These next 4 games could not be much further from a playoff game.

Nothing wrong with this...nothing at all

 

[jobberone]

They are VIGs. Very Important Games. I wanted to add something to it but I'm not allowed. Mom's always watching.



You guys might consider lightening up some. I know what he meant. It does affect our seeding. A win likely buries them. Maybe even...........permanently.....at least this year.

Test game, trap game, must win game...... there's 16 of 'em. Win them and then there's a championship game. Weird, huh?

Honestly those are bigger games for the Giants, Bucs and Lions. We're going to the playoffs already and will get HFA while they are fighting to stay in or make the playoffs.

I don't think that's such a "bold" outrageous statement given the state of both teams at the time. Certainly not one to "lose credibility" but to each their own.

Correction. I should have said lost all credibility with "me". Apologies.

I'm sure to others, it was fine. So I'm just speaking for me only.

 

[LeonDixson]

I believe his facts are wrong. As I see it, if we win the next TWO games we have HFA throughout the playoffs wrapped up. Not three games. Even if Seattle and Detroit win out they would only have twelve wins. We would have 13 with wins over the Giants and Bucs, thus making both the Lions and Philthy games inconsequential.

Fair enough

That Patriots team was on of the best teams this league has ever seen...

This is how I see the playoffs now win these next two and the last two games are not of any consequence to our rankings and HFA. Both the Giants and Commanders will be in a fight for their lives to make the playoffs and the schedule makes these last two weekends of football very entertaining.

Playoff caliber opponents might be more correct. If we win the next two games we have bye and HFA. We can sit back and watch the jockeying for playoffs that the last two weeks will provide.

 

[cowboys2233]

I don't think Nick understands what a playoff game is.

Remember when we would all be using the playoff simulator at this point of the year, desperately trying to find the scenarios that would get the Cowboys into the playoffs?

This is WAY more fun! LOL.
