If we win out, then I'm pretty sure we'll be in. I didn't look this up, but I know we own the head to head tiebreaker over TB, and we have the conference record against ATL.

Dallas definitely has the head to head tie-break over Tampa and I they have have the conference tie-break over Atlanta...

 

[Verdict]

Yahoo playoff generator says that we end up with the 5th seed, TB has the 6th seed and Atlanta gets left out.

(We only have conference tie breaker over Atlanta currently. If they win out, they will have the same conference record we do.)

If Dallas wins out, we're in. Regardless.

If we all have the same record, we get in since we beat Tampa Bay head-to-head. Head-to-head tiebreaker trumps all others.
