Top 4 in the Conference

Arizona-10-2* (6-2 Conference Record, Still plays Dallas)
Packers 10-3 (8-2 Conference Record, with the Tie-Breaker over the Cardinals)
Buc 10-3 (6-3 Conference Record, but owns the tie-breaker over the Cowboys)
Cowboys 9-4 (7-1 Conference Record, but loses tie-breaker to Buc)
 
Still play Arizona, Rogers irritated his toe...who knows what may happen. I wouldnt throw in the towel just yet.
 
A month of games is an eternity. No one is exempt from the sometimes cruel hand of fate.
 
Arizona has a pretty soft schedule remaining so I think they're in the pole position.

GB has BAL, CLE, MIN and DET, but doubt Jackson plays next week for the Ravens.

Bucs get Carolina twice and the Jets so they look to be on strong footing.

Not impossible, but going to be a steep hill to not face the Rams in the WC. Getting owned by the AFC West matters.
 
Watch and see.....

We will be in the crazy spot where if we beat Arizona it will hand Green Bay the one seed, and if we lose it'll push us into the four.

The loss to the Raiders was a killer. Couldn't afford it.
 
our only chance at HFA is a 4 way tie, not sure how it breaks down in that situation but I doubt those teams each lose 2 more games while we win out. We need LA to win tonight and then we beat AZ when we play them. GB to lose and TB lose one more game each. Not likely but it is possible.
 
Honestly outside the week off part of it I’m not sure I wouldn’t rather be on the road

with the exception of bad weather in Green Bay part of it the cowboys seem to play better in the road
 
I believe the Bucs are in the drivers seat for the #1 Seed based on their remaining schedule: Saints, Panthers twice and I believe the Jets. Arizona has the Rams, Cowboys, Colts, Seahawks, that is probably the toughest. Packers have Ravens (without Jackson), Browns, Vikings, Lions.

Tell you the truth, I like where we are at the moment, Rams might not even keep the #5 seed, but we could avoid one of the Packers/Bucs until the conference game if we can make it there.
 
I think HFA is gone for Dallas. They need to just focus on winning the division which still requires them to win 2 more games. The way Dak is playing right now, the thought of playing any of those top teams is scary.
 
Being healthy is more critical than HFA. Playing under the star didn't help much against the Raiders and Broncos.

Arizona still has the Rams, colts, and cowboys. That's three tough games.

The colts are playing about as well as anyone in the NFL right now. Jonathan Taylor is dominating
