here's the basic playoff picture for the NFC
Division Leaders
Dallas Cowboys 7-4 (tiebreaker over NYG, game 2 next week)
Chicago Bears 8-3 (tiebreaker over Carolina for 2nd in NFC)
Carolina Panthers 8-3
Seattle Seahawks 9-2
wild Card
New York Giants 7-4 (we have tiebreaker over them in case of a tied record)
Tampa Bay Buccanneers 7-4 (they have the tiebreaker over Minnesota and Atlanta)
in the hunt
Atl. 7-4 (lost to Tampa, beat MIn)
MIn 6-4 ( tiebreker over NYG)
realisticially i see us possibly winning 4 of the last 5 games which would give us an 10-5 record
Chicago will most likely win at lest 2 of their last games so division champ is probably out of the picture but they could possibly lose @ pittsburgh, probly not against ATL but any given sunday... other games are green bay @ chicago, vs GB and @ MIn
if Chicago loses to ATL and PIT and we win all 4 games then we'll both be 10-4 on Jan 1 and the winner gets the division.
but... as Pittsburgh is a good team, they willl be tough to beat so if we go 4-1 throught the last games (losses to CHicago or Pittsburgh) we will be at 10-5, and ligitimate contenders for a wild card spot
we however can not lose more than 1 game, if we do we will need a miracle to make the playoffs, and even if we do lose 1 game we will still need some help from other teams
