Just beat Washington, get the 2nd seed. I don't care who we play 1st, as we get a home game. Then win the next game at home.

I think Philly as 5th seed loses to who ever the NFCS division winner is, rather TB or NO. But if for some reason it is Atlanta, not sure about that one. I think TB is the best though to beat them.

After that, we probably get Detroit, unless Rams or Seattle, GB, whoever we don't play can possibly beat Detroit and the other SF. Or hope so anyway.

if Rams lose to SF and Packers beat the bears, who is the 7th seed?
GB has the tiebreaker so Rams would get the 7 and a trip to Dallas.

Looks as if we need the Rams to lose to SF if we are to see GB. They would obviously need to win as well.

I don’t want to see the Rams, or Seattle…in that order. Gut feeling tells me it’s Seattle.

First line says it all!!!!!!!!! Tired of hearing who we COULD play, we need to take it one game at a time, handle our business and go to the next game!

I feel like every comment needs a disclaimer….gotta take care of our own business first.

Edit….and we gotta get out of there healthy also.

we could beat any of those teams. We also could lose to any of them so I don't think it matters as long as we play home.

Simply play the team in front of you and it will all settle just fine.
Dallas fans have no reason to get out over their skis given the lack of playoff success.
Enjoy each playoff week.

Dallas is in position to be favored for the first 2 rounds and that is all you can ask.
If they make the NFC CG it has been a very good season.

SF and Bal await no matter what. Either one would beat the brakes off Dallas. The journey might change. But the final chapter remains the same.

What a fun finish to the season, and what’s wild is technically if all the matchups lineup we could end up seeing Carolina in round 1 believe it or not
