Say Hello to Bye

With everyone virtually tied with the same record. We DONT have to run the table necessarily.

We have to win one more game than New York because they own the divisional tie-breaker against us.

If we go 5-1, that means they must (counting tonight) go 4-3. Among @Jax, @Ten, Dallas, @Carolina, Philly, New Orleans, Washington I see New York going 5-2 or 4-3 depending on Carolina.

But should Carolina beat New York, they will likely beat Washington, Philly, Pittsburgh, Atlanta, and New Orleans. That makes them 12-4 and they take the bye. We have to hope they lose one of these games, but I don't see who takes them down (maybe Pittsburgh, who is better than their record).

Seattle has two losses coming against Denver and San Diego, but the rest look winnable so I see them going 4-2.

5-1 will easily get us a wildcard and maybe the division, but it's less than a 50-50 proposition that it would get us a bye. 4-2 and we have no chance at the division (barring a NY collapse), bye or not.

Hey! I am all for winning outright... I feel like we cant lose.... and that was before Romo...(no not cause Drew ) just because until we lose the game I ALWAYS FEEL WE HAVE A CHANCE

11-5 might get us a bye and a couple of home games, but the big picture is taking care of the Giants and Eagles or we aren't going anywhere.
