Lol, brain

I knows, i had tos.

That's Medic lol

You are rooting for Minnesota, NE, and LAC to win because that assists the Cowboys SOV, they are different wins than Philly has captured.


You are rooting for Detroit, Denver, and the NYJ to lose because those teams help Philly SOV.


If we do not capture the East this week, your rooting interest remains the same in week 17. Hopefully, the Cowboys take care of business and make that a moot point.

Yes sir
Beat the deaskins!!!!

One or the other
Bottom line we win or tie East is ours
We lose and eagles lose or tie
East is ours

We could go 0-3 and the Eagles go 3-0 and there is still a 99.99999% chance Dallas wins the NFC East. All we need is 2 games to go our way. We need the Patriots, Chargers, and Vikings to win and the Broncos, Lions, and Jets to lose. We have 9 chances for those 3 teams to gives us wins and 9 chances for those other 3 teams to give us losses to win strength of victory.

Example: Pats, LAC, and Minny go a combined 1-8 to end the season and the Broncos, Lions, and Jets go a combined 8-1 then we win the strength of victory tiebreaker based on two things going our way. The 1 win we needed from the teams we beat and the 1 loss we needed from the 3 teams Philly beat. The division belongs to Dallas.

It would be nice to lock up division before we face Cards. I can’t imagine losing to Skins. But I can imagine losing next week.

This is ridiculous . In 44 years off watching football I’ve never seen such an absurdly complex scenario for playoff clinch .

Yep we are division winners for all intents and purposes

Skins can be pesky

Arizona game is looking rather large if want more than 4th seed.

And at Philly could determine their playoff hopes.

Agreed!

Truth!
We should have motivation

 

[Diehardblues]

Let’s say we lose to Cards and lock up 4th seed at 11-5. Do we rest our stars in Philly?

 

[Diehardblues]

Truth!
We should have motivation

You’d think. But who has more motivation? We might have division locked up while they are still fighting for their division.

What if Cards lose out. What are their tiebreakers with these other 7 loss teams. Lol

I think we'll beat the Cards. Murray has looked like a total disaster the last couple weeks.

Good point!

Just smack the Skins… always been the most enjoyable way to clinch

Yep, maybe the NFL has figured him out.
