Wild card slots:

1) New York Giants - 8-4 (vs. Eagles)
2) Arizona Cardinals - 6-6 (vs. Seahawks)

Top contenders:

Detroit Lions - 6-6 (vs. Cowboys)
Minnesota Vikings - 6-6 (vs. 49ers)
Washington Redskins - 6-7 (vs. Giants *next week*)

Questions:

Who would we need to win between New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles? Since the Giants have Eagles, Redskins, Bills, and Patriots for their last 4 games...Should we go for the Giants to fall to 8-8? Should we go with the Giants to just pretty much automatically kick the Eagles out of the wildcard picture like the Bears this past Thursday?

If the Cardinals, Vikings, and Lions lose this weekend. Would this just mean that the Redskins will be tied for the wildcard spot with the Vikings with wins over the Lions and Cardinals?

It is kind of confusing with all these teams close together. If the 5-7 teams win this weekend...they will pull up to 6-7...and if the top wild card contenders fall to 6-7..we have a bigger situation...Maybe it is too hard to tell who is going to be in the 2nd wild card spot currently if this does happen!
