What are the divisional round possibilities?

Ok, ladies and gents, who needs to beat who this week to get a chance to meet us in the divisional round? Do we get the winner of the 4/5 matchup? What are the scenarios? Thanks

The Cowboys will face either the 4, 5 or 6 seed in the divisional round. The lowest advancing seed goes to Dallas.

We could meet any of the following:

Lions
Packers
Commanders
Giants
Seahawks
Falcons

Basically it is wide open.

It is wide open

Except it's not at the same time

That's correct.

The most likely scenario is the following:

Packers at 4th seed
Giants at 5th seed (locked in already)
Commanders at 6th seed

I would venture to say the Commanders lose against Seattle in the Wild Card, and the Packers beat the Giants.

That means we see Green Bay in the divisional round.

Ok, so we play the lowest seed in the divisional round?

 

[Carson]

My gut tells me we get the Skins next week

I would prefer the Lions to be honest. Skins would have to win at Seattle or Atlanta to face Dallas the following week.

The only teams which worry me are the NFC East teams. So that means I have to root for the Gnats to knock off the Commanders.

They know us too well, and we're 3-2 against NFC East teams ... and 10-0 against the rest of the league.

Probably the Giants or Packers.
