Go Vikings and (hold my nose) Eagles this weekend?

I actually suspect both teams will lose

 

[MojaveJT]

It sucks when we have to depend on other teams to win/lose.

I knew those leads we blew to the Packers and Rams would come back to haunt us.

 

[windward]

We aren’t making the playoffs. And those are the facts.

Great win last night tho!

That’s not a fact at this point in time.

Not that it's likely, but we could use Tampa Bay winning a couple down the stretch vs any of Atlanta, Carolina, and New Orleans

Also, unfortunately for us, there's a chance that Philly will be playing for home field and a bye week in week 17. Makes it a bit tougher.

I’ll take my shot vs them with Tyron, Zeke and Lee.

It won’t be 37-9, I’ll tell you that.

I meant, we need them to win for us to have much of a shot...and that's if we run the table from here.

Gotcha.

Yeah, I guess I can cheer for them this Sunday.

I always hate it when we have to depend on other teams poor play to help get us in the playoffs.

Not me!

I live for that sort of thing

Three things are clear for us to make the playoffs.
First, we must win out. Period.
Secondly, the NFC South and West must beat the crap out of each other.
Thirdly, we need the Eagles to hit week 17 with a two-game lead for HFA. Why? Because that means they probably beat both Seattle and the Rams and will rest a number of starters for their game against us. If Philly wins their next three and Minnesota loses a game, our final regular season game got a whole lot easier.

The Eagles will not rest their starters to let us get in the playoffs.

 

[TheDude]

winning out at 10-6 likely gets you in. Carolina and Atlanta and NO (better root for NO) beat each other and Sea has LA, Philly and Dallas. Now is that a about a 3% chance - likely

The Eagles will not rest their starters to let us get in the playoffs.

I am not so sure. Could you imagine getting a key player hurt in a meaningless game? I suspect they'd let their starters play but then start pulling guys as the game went on.

And frankly, they might also rather see us make the playoffs than say Atlanta.

 

[ElGatoGrande]

The defense and OL are showing signs of improvement, which are great things in and of themselves, but Dak is still struggling mightily and it doesn't look like that can be fixed overnight, Zeke or no Zeke. It's hard to believe they will win out even though the schedule might be in their favor. If they win out I think they make it.

Do we know they'd be able to? MIN is still right on their heels. Who wins out if they're both 14-2?

Lol

It's hard to beat the same team twice in one season especially a division rival. Last year we beat the Packers in the regular season and lost to them in the post-season. The Eagles would hate to see us again especially in a do or die game.

 

[Bigdog]

Well it is not over until the fat lady sings. She might be warming up but she ain't singing yet.

Goes to strength of victory.

Minnesota would win that in all likelihood.

Thanks.

Just ready where Rogers might be back by week 15 and he is already throwing. Amazing

The crazy part is the Eagles are so deep they could play a lot of their backups and the game could still be tough. I could see them playing us with their starters if the game meant Dallas getting in. I don't think they would want to see us with Zeke and Sean Lee in the playoffs.

Way to go out on a limb there, Nostradamus.

I created the thread for fun. If it doesn't interest you I'm sure there's a "tank" thread around here more to your liking.
