I think though you have to do the surrounding games with correct Win and Loss since so many teams determine strength of schedule. Like I said, confusing as hell. LOL
It won’t go past conference tiebreaker now. Either Dallas wins on divisional or conference tiebreaker, strength of victory no longer matters.
Yes, I forgot we would be one game up on the conference record.
Pretty much. Act of God has to happen for anything else at this point.
I would add that the 49ers now have issues with injuries to their oline and with their qb. I would also add that the Cowboys are still alive for the 2 and the 1. The NFC is wide open. Any of the playoff teams can lose to any of the other teams in the playoffs.NFC Bracket
Current Hot Teams in NFC
Current Cold Teams in NFC
- Tampa Bay Bucs, won 4 in a row
- San Francisco 49ers, 6-1 last 7 games with only loss to Ravens
- LA Rams, 5-1 last 6 games with only loss to Ravens
Reminder... Division Round TBD. In Divisional Round (second round), the lowest ranked team who won Wild Card matchups faces the bye week team. Remaining two teams face each other.
- Philadelphia Eagles, 1-3 last 4 games with only win against Giants
- Dallas Cowboys, lost 2 in a row

See post 7 for correction ( mod edit at request of poster)
not true. Philly must drop the final 2 . As long as we win out. Then we will be div champs. If we have the same record, Philly are champs.
Did you not watch the Eagles and the 49ers?
I hope thats right but I have heard otherwise. If we have the same record then Philly wins it. I think they gotta lose out and we must win out.
Nope you are wrong. The Eagles only have to lose 1 game.
It’s right, SOV no longer comes into play. Philly only has to lose a game and Dallas winning out.
It is clearly stated that the Cowboys would have the tie breaker if the Eagles lose 1 game to the Cards or the Giants.
not sure
providing we win out
I still can’t wrap my brain around the Eagles having much better odds to win the division and to get a bye, yet worse odds to make the Super Bowl.Thanks Nav22. Sorry folks, I posted from a search engine link this time. Should have used actual ESPN link like I normally do. Here is updated ESPN Analytics. I asked a mod if they could replace ESPN Analytics on first post with this one. Everything else there though is accurate. Just the 2 ESPN Analytics pictures that are outdated.
It shouldn't be confusing. The Cowboys have the tie breaker if they win out and the Eagles lose 1 game.
Why don't you just read the tie breakers at nfl.com.?
The Cowboys win and would be the 2 or the 1 depending on what the 49ers do. I would laugh so hard if the Cowboys got the 1 after what the posters are posting on this site.
