I think the Saints due to better conference record

Correct. They would be 8-4 and we 7-5.

Ah, lame. Stupid Saints need to lose too. They deserve a playoff nod even less than we do.

The Saints remaining 4 games are in the NFC. If they win out they will be 9-7 like the Skins, if the Skins win out, so both the Saints and the Skins would be 9-7. They will not and have not played each other so the head to head tiebreaker will not apply. The Saints would be 8-4 in the NFC and the Skins would be 7-5, so the Saints would get that last Wildcard spot. Nothing the Skins can do but win out and hope the Saints lose at least one game, then both teams would be 7-5 in the NFC and the next tiebreaker is common games, which is too complicated to figure at this point. The Skins have a very tough 3 game streach. I don't realistically see us beating the Vikings at home right now, but I think we could be the Giants and maybe the backup Cowboys in week 17.

What if the g-men, Saints & us end up 9-7? The g-men have us, Buffalo & NE left. I could see them losing all 3.

I feel like we are going to do I'm catching that same '05 vibe!!!

What about when the skins lose sunday night, what scenarios need to play out for the skins to get in?

If the Skins lose Sunday I would think we are pretty much done as far as getting into the playoffs.

Well, I don't see how that could happen. You guys have the "Shittiest Team in World" and will be "Kicked out of NFL forever" next year!

Ha ha, j/k. Good luck Sunday!

Worry not. The Saints would be lucky as hell to do any better than 2-2 here on out. They are really, really bad.

Arizona has a soft schedule that includes the Saints...we have them if we win out, but if we don't win out, then I don't know. They could win their final three really easily.

I still think 8-8 gets us in, provided we beat the Vikings.

Beat Minn and Dallas, get two losses from the Saints, an additional loss from the Vikings, and another loss from both the Cards and the Lions

Or, we can kick your ass with our backup QB, watch you guys implode over the final two weeks, and miss the playoffs.

That should be entertaining.

Gotta like our chances, even w/TC at the healm for his 1st start this century. Look at what's in our favor:

G-men: we face them after a 10 day break between games, almost a bye week.

Vikes: They play next monday night v.Bears, so they have a short week before we come to town.

cowpokes: Since they squeezed by Detroit, they really would have to blow it not to have home field locked by Dec. 30 when they come to fedex (it would be sweetest if we got in the playoffs & knocked them out of home field, but they'd have to lose 2 of 3 & GB win out for that to happen).

No i don't get the 05 vibe. Two reasons:

We can't run the ball...at all.

Our D is pretty good but not 05 dominant.

That being said...who knows..gotta play em out. We do have Todd Collins though.

They do! But even the blind squirrel finds a nut on occassion. The Giants were that blind squirrel 9 times this year, fortunately it was during a 13-week span!!!
