I just wanted to dedicate a thread to watching, and talking about our game to game chances, and who has to win or lose for us to make it.
Seemed to be some confusion, and would be nice if we could all post in one place about how things change threw out the rest of the season. NFL Playoff Picture - CBSSports.com Wildcard Race Needless to say, we need to beat at least 49ers Giants Falcons Bucs to move up the charts, and hope they lose other games. But we are in a ok spot I think, and all of those teams are very beatable for us. Key target is Seattle's spot at 6-4, very doable if we beat the giants, and Seattle has a few loses with our 4-5 record. |
Saints proved that pigs could fly in 2009.
Now its time for another miracle SuperBowl and go where no pig has gone before. Last edited by pherein; 11-14-2012 at 04:30 AM.. |

We are still alive,but if Tampa ,Seattle and Minnesota keep winning is bad news for us . I dont even want to mention anything about Detroit,Dallas or Arizona... its such a grey area at 4-5 anything can happen .

We need to pull for every AFC team when they are playing a NFC team.

Re: -=New Orleans Saints Playoff Picture=-
I agree, LOL, my second NFL team is now the AFC.
Cool stats ,seem to be logical % to me, just click the Explain under What If, gives us a playoffs 100% 11-5 92.5% 10-6 37.7% 9-7 2% 8-8 To Win Title at 11-5 is 1.1% , lol. Best 1st round opponent is the Giants at 33% chance New Orleans Saints Playoff Chances - Sports Club Stats

Re: -=New Orleans Saints Playoff Picture=-
I like the Saints chances of making the playoffs. They are one of the few teams that are actually improving in the NFC. GB, Tampa, and the Seafoams are the other three. I'm not even sure what scenario I should root for though. Tampa has yet to play Atlanta. Maybe a split? Very difficult to say right now.

Re: -=New Orleans Saints Playoff Picture=-
If we beat the Raiders this week we are one game behind the Seahawks and Vikings (and possibly the Bucs if they win this weekend), both who are on bye this week.
The last six games we only have to get one more win than those teams to go to tie breakers, 2 more and we are the 6th seed out right. If saints go 5-2 and the Seahawks/Vikings go 3-3, we are in for sure, Saints go 5-2 and the Seahawks/Vikings go 4-2 and it's tiebreakers time. We only need one spot, and that is the currently occupied by the Seahawks. I think this is right. I'd bet money on the Saints going 5-2 over their last 7 over the Seahawks or Vikings going 4-2 over their last 6. The Vikings schedule is brutal. |

Re: -=New Orleans Saints Playoff Picture=-
Have you seen the Vikings schedule, I doubt they win more than 2 games the rest of the season

Re: -=New Orleans Saints Playoff Picture=-
Very interesting, Falcons have a lot of injuries
FOOTBALL OUTSIDERS: Innovative Statistics, Intelligent Analysis | 2012 DEFENSIVE EFFICIENCY RATINGS We know how badly they played against our defense. This might be a upset in the making with a low scoring game. Moving them down the charts to 2nd seed if the Bears beat the 49ers, who wont have Smith playing. Making SF 49ers 6-3-1, and if we beat them 6-4-1, and the Saints 6-5 |

Im not worried about getting Falcons in the playoffs, they are the best team we could get to move forward to the 2nd round. |
