What is the situation if PHI loses tonight?

[windward]

So basically we lose because we played the Panthers?

Kinda? But it could flip if the teams we beat start winning.

Of course they get Lock and not Geno. SMH

Get ready to be the 5th seed again. Currently that would mean a trip to Tampa. Win there and it's off to Santa Clara. Sound familiar?

You guys are skipping a tiebreaker.

Common games is before conference record and strength of victory. Dallas basically killed any chance at that by losing to Buffalo.

This is it. Eagles lost to Jets and would hopefully lose to Seahawks. 2 losses. We lose to Bills. 1 loss. The loss to 49ers is a push.

Yet in 2 weeks the Eagles could beat Cards which makes this tiebreaker a push so I’m wrong.

If Philly loses tonight and assuming they beat Arizona, the common opponents tiebreaker will be a wash. So, H2H is over, division games should end up even, common opponents is over and conference record would go to Philly….Dallas losing to Arizona hurt that tiebreaker. Philly also holds the strength of victory tiebreaker. People are forgetting that Philly still has to play Arizona.

Whether or not Philly wins tonight, they still have to lose another game and Dallas wins out. If Philly loses to Arizona, Dallas wins common opponents tiebreaker. If they lose to NY, Dallas wins division games tiebreaker. Of course, Dallas has to get through Miami first…….

It was always gonna come down to Philly losing one to the Giants. The importance of this game is that we can still lose one more and, as long as it isn’t to Washington, win the division if they lose to NY.

Well Dallas can lose to Miami if Philly loses one of those Giants games.

ok but WHY can't we finish 13-4 and they finish 13-4 and we win? is it really because we happened to play the Panthers and they got the Bucs? Isn't that biased towards a 1st place schedule?
