Giants lost that was good ! but yeah only dallas won their ugly game, so
They about have it in the bag, just beat the giants next sunday, and it could be done.

only bad news is TB won, and is now tied for div with atl, and that means they could
either win div or be WC, and they are playing good now. 4 in a row.

We don't want to face ATL or WAS in the playoffs inside a dome. Give us TB, NYG, MIN, SEA, DET.

TB moves ahead of Washington in the WC as the 6th seed for now, and I am fine with that.
Now if NY will go on a losing streak, and a few other teams move up, then both of them will be out.
Only thing is, those 2 teams chasing them, are Vikings and Packers.

I expect Dallas to win the division barring a complete meltdown. Having said that, the Gaints game is a classic trap game.

The Giants must win next week to have any chance at winning the division, however slight. They hold the tie breaker on us and the game is at their place. They were embarrassed by the Steelers. I expect them to give us all they have.

In the NFL desperate teams often pull out all the stops trying to win because they have nothing to lose in a way. Going for it on 4th down, fake punts, whatever it takes to win.

Tampa Bay is in the fight of their life to win their division. The game means a lot to them also. We will get their best game at Jerry world.

Next up is the Lions. Surprisingly they too are in the hunt for a division title and are playing for seeding.

Lastly are the Eagles. Great defense and gave us all we wanted the first time around. This game would be their super bowl.

If we just managed to win one of these four, and limped into the playoffs, how would you feel about it, even if we managed to be the #1 seed?

I think every game on our schedule is a winnable game meaning I think we are the better team and will win. The only way we lose the rest of the regular season games is if we beat ourselves. I agree with Verdict, we're going to get each team's best shot because we've shown in the Vikings game that even we play bad we still win. Every team knows one mistake against us and we'll take it to them. Right now the biggest games I'm concerned about is Tampa Bay and Detroit. I think we're going to smash the Giants next week. We'll be looking for revenge and we'll be rested for the first time in the last three games.

Having said that, the Giants only real touchdown was a turnover inside the 20. Steelers aren't known for their pass defense. Giants offense is ODB.

They are also the only team Dallas has lost to this season.

The coaching staff will be on the players about that.

It's football. Any game can go either way for a multitude of reasons.

I'm very confident the Cowboys will be focused on their next opponent.

If we drop 3 out of 4 after starting the year 11-1.............that will be the biggest choke job in franchise history

I highly doubt we lose 3/4

Tampa would be my most preferred match-up of any team in the playoff hunt.

How would you feel if we continue to spank teams like we have all year and go 4-0 to finish the regular season and ready to run over everybody

That is why I say we need to win out, go in strong, and #1 seed, we get the weakest survivor
from WC games, win that at home, then host the champ game!

and yes all the teams remaining will need to win or want to knock us off, so no easy games.

I would feel great. Why wouldn't I? I'm a season ticket holder and have been for 10 plus years

I don't know when I've felt such heartfelt affection for our division opponents as I do on this day.

Thanks from the bottom of my heart, Eastern Division guys, for helping us be a playoff team. ;)

I'm sure you losers didn't blow your games intentionally but your kindness was especially timely.

Not worried about Bucs.
