Week 15 SEA Beats Falcons. Falcons 11 -3 Saints beat Ravens Saints 11-3 Falcons play Saints Week 16 one team is 12-3 one team is 11-4 If Saints win Week 16 they have to lose to Tampa and Carolina loses to Atlanta for both to finish 12-4 Falcons own that tiebreaker and win the division or Saints beat Ravens, lose to Falcons and beat Bucs finish 12-4 Falcons lose to Seattle beat Saints and lose to Carolina finish 12-4 Falcons own head to head. or Week 15 SEA Beats Falcons. Falcons 11 -3 Saints lose to Ravens Ravens Saints 10-4 Falcons play Saints Week 16 Saints win Both teams 11-4 Both teams win week 17 and finish 12-4 Atlanta owns the common games tiebreaker because they beat the Ravens or Both Lose week 17 and finish 11-5 Atlanta owns the tiebreakers. The Saints have to finish with a better record than the Falcons to win the division in all scenarios. Its pretty simple. Three games left. Saints have to win them all and Falcons have to lose 2 of 3 for the Saints to win the division. |
