Right now we are only 1 game out of the last wildcard spot with these teams ahead of us

Dallas 7-5 (6-3)
Minnesota 7-5 (6-4)
Atlanta 7-5 (4-4)

then it is us at 6-6 (6-2)
we have the best conference record of all those teams, so we are in pretty decent shape for a wildcard spot after all! especially since the cowboys will probably drop one game against either the chiefs or panthers

skinsttw · 12-04-2005, 09:36 PM

Can anyone post predicted finishes for the three teams ahead of us?

Big C · 12-04-2005, 09:50 PM

i predict...assuming we win out which is still...yeah...

Dallas- Kansas City (L) @Washington (L) @Carolina (L) St. Louis (W)
Minnesota- St Louis (W) Pittsburgh (L) @Baltimore (W) Chicago (L)
Atlanta- New Orleans (W) @Chicago (L) @Tampa (Toss up) Carolina (L)

that would leave

Dallas 8-8 (7-5)
Minnesota 9-7 (7-5)
Atlanta 9-7 or 8-8 (6-6 or 5-7)

even if we lost to dallas, they would then be 9-7 and 8-4 in conference
we would be 9-7 and 9-3 in conference...

BigSKINBauer · 12-04-2005, 09:56 PM

We have to win atleast 3 of the next 4 and the only single game we must win in my opinion is dallas to gain a wildcard and possibly philthyas they have can also win out.

WE GOT TO LOOK AT THE GINTS TOO!!! THE DIVISION RACE ISN"T GONE!!

Gints still have
@Philly
KC
@US
@Raiders
I think they are capable of losing any of those. the raiders have done a lot to our division and have beat the us and dallas while losing a heart breaker in philthy. KC just beat the broncos and philthy can be strong at home and Gints can be pretty bad away. 3 of next four are away.

We are in Ok position to win the division or getting a Wildcard at 9-7.

Big C · 12-04-2005, 10:00 PM

the playoff picture will be much clearer after next week. i am fairly certain that we will beat the cardinals, but we will see. once we see the results of the teams we are battling with, then we will know if we have a better shot at a wildcard or the division.

also, are we pulling for the buccaneers to win now? right now they are 1 game ahead of everyone for the first wildcard spot, and we dont want to be tied with just them since they have the head to head advantage.

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 12-04-2005, 10:01 PM

Gmen go 12-4 or 11-5
Dallas goes 10-6
Redskins go 9-7 (and barely miss the playoffs)

I would be happy with that. I said since the preseason that all I wanted out of this season was 9-7. They just need to take steps...first establish yourself as a winning team and then try and build on that next year.

Dallas loses 3 out of 4 games. Giants lose 3 out of 4. We win all four. That's what I see. Until something changes, my prediction stands.

Eli has just one win on the road this year (49ers) and will not win the game for the Giants in Philly. Next Dallas certainly won't win against KC, Redskins and the Panthers. We win this division buddy. Giants will lose to either Philly, Redskins, Raiders. Kansas City, Redskins, Raiders.

Just take care of business next week....thats all I care about....

After that though??? Its time to get F*CKING NUTTY!!

sniks · 12-04-2005, 10:45 PM

We can discuss this till the cows come home but the bottom line is we have to take care of buissness.Run the table and let the cow chips fall where they may.I personally see this as an uphill battle with alot of luck involved,hopefully the luck goes our way for a change.

hey while i disagree i must say if we win 9 games I would not be completely upset. We haven't been that great of a team for so many years and 9 wins would be a real improvement. 7 wins means we are the same as last year and 8 isn't anything to be crazy for but 9! we would be one game out of the playoffs and so much to look forward to next year

saskin · 12-04-2005, 11:32 PM

Why not shoot for 10? :headbange....now if they lose to the Cardinals of all people I will go and committ suicide but I'd be happy with at least 8 or 9.

This game's given a little bit of confidence back to me.

skinsfanthru&thru · 12-05-2005, 12:34 AM

while a lot of people r looking past the cardinals, their wrs worry me a bit with Rogers at times getting turned around by wrs on routes. Each week Boldin and Fitz seem to get 100+ yards and 5-10 catches a piece. The good thing is that their d is kinda weak and they pretty much have no running game to speak of. I'm more optimistic about our chances of making the playoffs with our remaining schedule but even more so because of our divisional rivals schedules. But as corny as it always sounds we have to take it one game at a time especially with the inconsistent play of the team to date this year.
