Your thread is only slightly stronger than mine, each team MUST win on Sunday to get in. Washington has not secured a play-off spot yet. It is likely, but not certain.

But to see the chances of Dallas-Washington meeting one more time this season in the play-offs, a lot has to happen. So for arguements sake lets say that Carolina lays an egg in Atlanta and looses Sunday. Not too likely but the most believable of all scenarios. If Carolina looses that bumps Washington from the #6 seed to the #5 seed. The NFC playoff pic would look like this

#1 Seattle
#2 Chicago
#3 NYG
#4 Tampa Bay
#5 Washington
#6 Dallas

Week 1 of the playoffs would be Washington @ Tampa Bay and Dallas @ NYG.
IF both teams win then Dallas goes to Seattle (again) and Washington goes to Chicago (I do not envy any team that has to go to a playoff game in Chicago in January). If both teams win then we see another Dal-Wash game. And that would be the NFC Championship game.

Washington is playing the best game in the league right now and is streaking at the perfect time. Dallas, well I just never know which team is going to show up. The likelihood we meet again this season is very slim.
