Seeding question

[Mannix]

So if we get stuck with the 4th seed, we play whoever finishes runner up in the West, correct? And under what scenario would we play Philly?

 

[8FOR!3]

We need Tampa and I think one other team to lose to get Philly I believe

 

[pacy]

We would play Philly if Bucs, Rams and Cardinals all lose. Might be just the Bucs and one of the others.

 

[Flamma]

If Dallas gets the 2nd seed I believe we play Philly. But Tampa, Rams, and Arizona all have to lose

 

[endersdragon]

Bucs losing doesn't matter unless both of the West teams lose.

 

[Mannix]

To make it easy to understand, I believe that we play the runner up of the west....unless LA and AZ both lose. Then several things are in play. Am I correct ???

 

[Flamma]

Yes, we play either the Rams or the Cards if we're 4th seed. But Dallas can be 3rd seed if the Rams and Cards lose. In that case we'd play the 49ers.

 

[Mannix]

I want NO PART of the Rams....my glass is always half full, but I am 100% positive that we will beat AZ.

Luv to get the egirls again

That is correct. If the Rams and Cards lose we are the 3rd seed and play the Niners.

The 2nd seed doesn't play anybody

I don't think that's true this year.

The playoffs have expanded to seven teams.

I believe we’d need Tampa, Arizona, and LA to lose in order for us to play Philly again.

I wonder why we don't get the 2 with a Bucs and Rams loss and a Cardinals win. We'll still have the best conference record right?

 

[pacy]

You are right. They would only play the 7th seed Eagles. They are nobody.

 

[Flamma]

That is correct. If the Rams and Cards lose we are the 3rd seed and play the Niners.

Yep. I'd actually rather play the Rams over the Cards or 49ers. I know the Rams are good, but their QB is about as mobile as my grandmother was at 90, and Stafford like to give out donations, gifts!

The 2nd seed plays the 7th seed.

That he does

Yup. Stafford has thrown 6 picks in the last 3 games, 5 in the last 2 games.
