Where are We Now in the Playoff Picture ?
 
Wildcard ? Tied With The Panthers with the Tie Breaker over Arizona and the Bills ? But then They Beat Patriots and the Jets ... Is the NFC weight of Arizona worth more than the JETs and Pats edge ?

Am Lost ....

Right now I'll be happy with the 5th or 6th seed

Got to pull for the Falcons (just threw up in my mouth a little). But it's possible to beat Carolina, especially them on the road.

Re: Your current "one and done" playoff scenarios
 
Considering we were 62 seconds from the #2 seed, I can't be happy about anything we'll get now...

Not worth thinking about - not even possible - and if it was, they would tank on purpose for a better draft pick and the opportunity to screw us.

Strange. I was reading everywhere that we were done.

We have 4 more quarters of meaningful football this year and they will be on the road.

Wrong. Last game is at home

Re: Your current "one and done" playoff scenarios
 
Tampa game is meaningless. Seattle will beat Arizona and we will back in. Or San Fran will beat them in week 17.

Our meaningful game left is our road playoff game.

Looking ahead a couple weeks huh? Wonder where that's gotten us before.

I'm looking ahead based on the efforts of others (Seattle and San Fran)

I have no doubt that 1 or both of them take care of business.

They, unlike the Saints, have a killer instinct...

So is the realism (reality bites right now)

I think we are a wildcard team. We need a lot of junk to happen to change that.

Total agreement. What we have here is a bunch of Weeping Wilmas. It is a sad sight. Nothing less that the first or second seed in the NFL playoffs is good enough for these sad sacks.

Hey, girls, guess what? The Cardinals showed us all today, that not only is taking Seattle out possible -- importantly -- it is possible in their house. That is enough to make me smile.

Jesus, get a grip. We still have a chance to win it all. That is all ANY TEAM IN THE NFL HAS RIGHT NOW. We will just have to work one more week for it.
