Definitely want Arizona to lose. Philly, too. As well as the Giants.

Everyone else I don't really think matters?

Denver
kansas city
Cincinnati
Chicago
Minnesota
Dallas

Det has no chance against Carolina since they've benched four starters.

AZ owns the NFC West and the rest of the teams are 2-7

I don't know if we necessarily want the Giants to lose, unless you are still holding out hope we can overtake them for the division lead. Would hate for the Commanders to overtake them and have all 4 division teams in the wildcard mix. Also, pretty sure we want Chicago to pull away and win the North....

The Ravens @ High Noon!!!:giants::draw:

 

[WoodysGirl]

Why? Injuries?

No idea. It was just reported on NFL network.

I don't understand. Why would you want Dallas to win?

Me neither. They suck.

I went with GB myself.

I kinda went back and forth on that game. I went the theory of it's better to push the guy who's down, even further.

Chi and Minny have the same record. A loss for Chi and Minny ties that division three ways. That would ***** things up for that division.

Denver
Minnesota, but I don't think this matters. We beat TB, so it may be better if they win.
Baltimore
KC
Detroit [like that will really happen]
Cincinnati
Chicago, but same thing as above, we beat GB, so may be better if they win
Seattle, not that they, SF or St'l. matters in that division
Dallas

But we MUST take care of our own game first.

[CATCH17]

If we finish with the 2nd best record in the NFC would we get a bye?

If we don't win our division. No we don't get a bye.

Just to add

Saints over KC - They're now 5-5

AZ - 10 v Sea 0. Looks like that game is going about as expected.

 

[Hypnotoad]

Eagles tie Bengals. Whats that mean? No clue.

Does that mean hey will never be able to catch up with us record wise, so if we have the same amount of wins, we will always be 0.5 games above them?

 

[big dog cowboy]

WHO WE ROOTING FOR?

Dallas at Washington - Dallas

Bottom line - we still need to take care of our own business.

 

[jchocolate82]

So with the Eagles getting a tie in their record and if we win tonite does that help to put distance between us and them?

 

[zeroburrito]

of course it does....they didn't get a win. 9-6-1 < 10-6. from here on out, they have to put as much of an effort as it would have taken to get 10-6 if this was a win to get a 9-6-1 record. which would be 4-2. since they got a tie, they now need 5-1. if we win tonight we will be 6-4 and they will be 5-4-1. 6 wins > 5 wins.

Actually the opposite, if they have the same amount of wins the eagles would be a half game ahead.
