But I think if the Redskins can win, they'll have taken a step towards being a playoff team. I estimate that the Redskins have a 35% chance of victory, but if they win, and especially if they do it in convincing fashion, they will be in good position.

From what I've seen, they probably will not win. I hope I'm wrong.

Very hard at this point to say we are playoff caliber, even if we win in Carolina GTripp. You have to say at best we will finish 3rd in our division. WE can beat the Cowboys, but not the Gmen or the Eagles. The Saints will smoke us, and ATL will win in the dome. Sand Diego is a toss up. KC and Oakland should be easy wins.

IF things hold steady it will be: New York taking the East
New Orleans taking the South
Arizona taking the West
Minnesota taking the North

Eagles wildcard
Bears, Packers, or ATL the other wildcard


Sure a lot of stuff can happen between now and January, but unless we are helped by divine intervention, we won't make the playoffs in '09.
