Road To First Seed

[CATCH17]

Heard this on the radio about an hour ago. These are not my suggestions.

1. Dallas wins out.
2. Az loses tonight and one more game (Dallas game.)
3. TB loses two games.
4. GB loses one game.

Tampa plays Saints/panthers/jets/panthers

They’re done losing.

Me likey

 

[john van brocklin]

I'm more concerned about how the team plays over where they play.

True

 

[Reid1boys]

Yes, but the OP’s above scenario doesn’t result in a TB/Dallas tie alone.

which is what happened in 2014.... we beat the seahawks but ended up below them if I remember correctly because a 3 way tie existed between us GB and Seahawks.

 

[Tabascocat]

Yea, still too early to be prognosticating of what will happen. It will all boil down to TB and if they even lose another.

 

[BourbonBalz]

Bucs have a great shot at winning out but even if we can move up to the 3 seed I’d be happy

I only want the 3 seed if Arizona is the 2. I want the seed that would play them in the second round. Of course we’d all prefer the 1 seed but that’s highly unlikely. Way too many things have to happen for us to get the 1. The 2 seed would obviously also be great since we’d be at home until the title game (assuming the 1 seed makes the title game).

True there is a month left in this season. Some are acting as if everything is set. a lot can happen in a month

Correct.

 

[Mobinvans]

Anything is possible

More than likely but you never know. The ball bounces funny sometimes.

 

[fivetwos]

At this point we are playing for the three seed.

Our game vs Arizona will determine whether we play one of tonight's teams or a scrimmage vs who sneaks in as the 6/7.

 

[MichiganCowboyFan]

Three way tie breakers yes, but if it’s just us and Tampa they have the tie breaker over us.

I doubt both GB and AZ lose two more games

 

[Manwiththeplan]

Tampa only needs one loss if I’m not mistaken.

If we win out, we win just about any tie breaker with multiple teams

 

[BourbonBalz]

I doubt both GB and AZ lose two more games

They only need to lose one more. Green Bay, Tampa Bay, and Arizona are all only 1 game up on us now.

 

[BourbonBalz]

If we win out, we win just about any tie breaker with multiple teams

Yes, that’s a certainty. We only have one conference loss. All of the others have at least two.

 

[MichiganCowboyFan]

right.

If Baltimore wins at home vs GB (winnable for the Ravens), TB would just need to lose one more game (they have all division games plus At the Jets) and the Cowboys control our destiny for the bye.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Bucs and Brady lost at the Jets.

I like your optimism, but I’d bet my house, vehicles, and retirement that they beat the Jets. If they stumble it’ll be against the Saints or Panthers simply because they’re division games which can be weird games.

 

[NeonNinja]

I don’t see TB losing. Their schedule is easy. Anything can happen but very unlikely.

 

[MichiganCowboyFan]

I don’t see TB losing. Their schedule is easy. Anything can happen but very unlikely.

Division games and all 3 teams are in the wildcard hunt at 6-7. I see TB dropping one.

 

[ultron]

Tampa’s schedule: Saints, Panthers, Jets, Panthers

Green Bay: ravens (no Lamar), browns, Vikings, lions
