So Arizona is the 6th seed now?

Yesterday I thought Greenbay was the 6th seed going into week 17, now I guess with the tiebreakers I'm reading the Cardinals are the 6th seed going into week 17.

I would love to play those guys again with Romo this time around.

Nope. Zona will be the 5th seed. My prediction: Detroit comes to AT&T to get their *** handed to them

I think the result would be very different playing them again. No Carson Palmer and a (relatively) healthy Romo would change everything.

I'm not afraid of them either.

Detroit will be a great start to the playoffs, I think. It's taken last minute wins for them to beat the Vikings and the Jimmy-Clausen led Bears. They'll almost certainly get beat down by the Packers.

Arizona is currently the 6th seed that is correct, now whether they remain there i dont know.

the bears had at least 7 dropped passes; good chance they would have won otherwise.

Arizona may be the 6th seed currently but they cannot stay there unless GB and DET tie.

I dont understand, suppose Arizona loses next week will they move up?

If I see one more scenario with a GB/DET tie involved in it I think I may scream!! (no offense to you personally)

Green Bay and Detroit play each other, so at least one of them has to lose.

The short answer is yes.

The key is that Arizona beat Detroit. If DET and ARI lose next week, ARI wins the tie-breaker with them and moves up to the 5 seed. If GB and ARI lose next week, GB will have lost (again) to a team that ARI beat, which adjusts the tiebreakers and moves ARI ahead of GB.

After checking into, Arz will stay the 6th if they lose and GB loses. Arz owns the tiebreaker over Detroit but not GB

Nope.

I believe the point he is asking is that if Arizona is currently the 6th seed and they lose next week how would they move up, since both they and the loser of the GB/Det. game would be basically where they are now.

The answer to that I am not sure of other than to say it would no longer be a five way tie for first place in the standings (11-4 for Dallas, Detroit, Green Bay, Arizona, and Seattle).

Edit:

This. Thank you.
