Now that we're getting closer to the end of the regular season, I figured I'd start a thread where we talk about our playoff hunt. First of all as we all know, we are in control of our destiny. Thanks to that half win against Cincinnati, if we win out we are in. Doesnt matter what anyone else does. BUT, if we lose this week it gets really interesting. Especially for the Bucs, if they win and we lose, they would actually take our spot with a half game lead, albeit with a tough upcoming schedule. Meanwhile the Vikings almost scare me more than the Bucs, as they sit at 6-6 with what looks like a fairly easy schedule. Huge that Dallas beat them, but I could still see them finishing with 9 or 10 wins. And if the 5-6 Saints, Packers, or Eagles win + we lose, they would still be alive, just half a game behind us. Point is, we are by no means assured a playoff spot. This Sunday against Arizona is a huge game for us!!

Here are the schedules for our two biggest challengers right now:

6-5 Bucanneers: at Chargers, vs Saints, at Cowboys, at Saints, vs Panthers

6-6 Vikings: at Jaguars, vs Colts, at Packers, vs Bears

And current NFC playoff standings:

1. Cowboys
2. Seahawks
3. Lions
4. Falcons
5. Giants
6. Redskins

Buccaneers
Vikings
Saints
Packers
Eagles
Cardinals
Panthers
Rams
Bears
49ers(eliminated)
