Playoff seating using Current Record

[Toruk_Makto]

Playoffs? Playoffs? We have five regular season games left.

Yeah i always worry about us fans negatively influencing the team and making them.... look past their remaining 5 games.

 

[WillieBeamen]

I have a feeling only 2 NFCE teams will make the playoffs.

I think the Commanders make it and the Giants dont. That loss to the Vikings will be their undoing.

 

[Zordon]

just like the 07 season with the giants, they talked for two years about Dallas, guaranteed wins 3 straight games and lost, brandon jacobs said they would meet us at the airport and fight us at the tarmac the night before the game at NY in november of 07, they started fights, taunted and threw some cheap shots in.....

then when the playoff game was set somehow the national narrative was all about the one comment made from Dallas by Patrick crayton, everything previous for two years was completely ignored....it became all about the under dog giants beating the big mouth cowboys...and nothing could have been further from the truth, they had more free agents than we did and spent more money but somehow Dallas was the big mouth cocky team....

it still drives me nuts how the ny media twisted all that and the dallas media never thought NY could actually win. Still makes me mad.

Same thing will happen this time with washington if we play them again, the National media will take Dez's words and turn it into Dallas is a bunch of loud mouth arrogant prima donnas who need to be put in their place.

I don't want any part of that and I am glad to see dez said last night he shouldn't have said what he said. I don't want any part of what a third game vs washington would be.

this is correct. ugh just reading this makes me sick. not only will they bring up dez's comments, they'll bring up the fact that we had an unfair scheduling advantage and how the sunlight from the end zone messed with the Skins. seriously after the game Terry Bradshaw had the audacity to say "if they make those two field goals, the Commanders would have won the game by 1 point." i was ready for jimmy to lambast him but everybody just looked at him like the dunce he is.

this is why i want atlanta. they're the only team we don't have history with. detroit will bring up '14, giants will be the giants, and the eagles will be riled up by their fans/media as well.

 

[Zordon]

You do realize that the cowboys ourselves are actually the last team to beat a team 3 times in one season? The 2009 season against the Eagles. So i dont really see anything to be scared of.

Good point. You need a new avi my man.

 

[Cowboys22]

You do realize if we rest our starters, the backup will be Romo and Morris and possibly McFadden...we could still beat them....unless we play Sanchez....

It will definitely be Sanchez in the that scenario. They won't expose Romo to injury before the playoffs. You have to rest some OL and defensive players as well.

 

[Jstopper]

*sigh* i suppose youre right

 

[Jstopper]

It will definitely be Sanchez in the that scenario. They won't expose Romo to injury before the playoffs. You have to rest some OL and defensive players as well.

I think it should be romo in that scenario tho. Dude needs some playing time to knock off the rust. If Dak got hurt in the playoffs would you really want romo to have seen no gametime action in over a year?

 

[theebs]

Go to church with that scary attitude. I dont care what team we play, our formula can run with anybody in this league.

I assure you I will never go there.

Not my point. Its a little early to think about playoff scenarios as many of these teams still have to play one another.

 

[Zordon]

*sigh* i suppose youre right

although if we're discussing all these scenarios, wouldn't it be the cherry on top for this season if we rested starters in Week 17 and Romo was able to shred the Eagles and knock them out of the playoffs.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

When you're 10-1 it's fair for fans to begin hoping for a bye and looking ahead. Fans.

Enjoy the feeling and speculation man!

it would be beautiful to see

Div 1 - Cowboys
Div 2 - Seahawks
Div 3 - Lions
Div 4 - Falcons
WC 1 - Giants
WC 2- Commanders


Cowboys would play (winner of Falcons / Giants) unless Commanders (WC2) beat Lions

Really hoping the skins implode a bit and miss the playoffs. I will be rooting for NY and Philly against them for sure. 6 losses and 9 wins will probably knock them out. I think they play Carolina as well

It seems Giants, Commanders and Eagles will all be pretty tough outs.

For information, it's "seeding" rather than "seating".

Maybe he meant seated around the playoff table

Fine. I could see the Commanders not even making the playoffs though. They still have to play the Giants and the Eagles. Go Eagles?

 

[waldoputty]

troublemaker
trouty is going to come here and administer some punishment like last time

 

[windward]

Commanders probably would beat the Lions. .02

Sure didn't when they played.

fyi: "seeding"
