Ways to get a Bye... Packers@Vikings most important game

By far the most important non-Saints game on the schedule for us. Not only influences our chances of getting the 2 seed, but also the 1 seed. Without the Vikings beating the Packers, even if the Seahawks win the division, we don't get in over the Seahawks cause it would be a 3 way tie and head to head doesn't matter. We'd be the odd team out. Vikings really need to beat the Packers... there is another way for us to get a bye, but it'd require some real luck.

Here are all the Scenarios that give us a bye(assuming we win out):
1.)Packers lose to either Vikings or Lions. 49ers wins out.
49ers would be the 1 seed. Saints would be the 2 seed.

2)Packers lose to either Vikings or Lions. Seahawks win out.
Saints would be the 1 seed. Seahawks would be the 2 seed.

3.)Packers lose to either Vikings or Lions. Seahawks lose to Cardinals. 49ers lose to Rams. Seahawks defeat 49ers.
Saints would be the 1 seed. Seahawks would be the 2 seed.

4.) Packers lose to either Vikings or Lions. Seahawks lose to Cardinals. 49ers lose to Rams. 49ers defeat Seahawaks.
Saints would be the 1 seed. 49ers would be the 2 seed.

5). Packers lose to either Vikings or Lions. Seahawks defeat Cardinals. 49ers lose to Rams. 49ers defeat Seahawks.
Saints would be the 1 seed. Seahawks would be the 2 seed.

6.) Packers lose to either Vikings or Lions. Seahawks lose to Cardinals. 49ers defeat Rams. Seahawks defeat 49ers.
Saints would be the 1 seed. Seahawks would be the 2 seed.

7.) Packers win out. 49ers lose to Rams Seahawks beats Cardinals. 49ers beat Seattle.
Packers would be 1 seed. Saints would be 2 seed.

8.) Packers win out. 49ers beat Rams. Seahawks lose to Cardinals. Seattle beats 49ers.
Packers would be 1 seed. Saints would be the 2 seed.

9.)Packers win out. 49ers lose to Rams. Seahawks lose to Cardinals.
Packers would be the 1 seed. Saints would be the 2 seed.

Scenarios if we lose a game:

10) If Saints lose to the Titans, but defeat the Panthers. GB loses to the Vikings or Lions. Seahawks win out or 49ers defeat Seahawks,
Saints get the 2 seed.

11.) If in scenario 10 Seattle instead loses to Cardinals and defeat the 49ers, Saints get the 1 seed.

Most Improbable Scenario of Getting a Bye:
12.) Saints defeat Titans, Lose to Panthers; Vikings defeat Packers, Vikings Lose to Bears; Packers lose to Lions. Seahawks win out or 49ers defeat Seahawks, Saints get 2 seed.

13.)If in scenario 12 Seahawks instead lose to Cardinals and defeat the 49ers, Saints get the 1 seed.

If Saints lose to the Panthers,Packers lose to the Viking, Vikings defeat bears , Vikings will get the 2 seed.
If Saints lose to the Panthers, Packers defeat Vikings, Packers lose to the Lions. Packers will get the 2 seed.

Correct me if anything is wrong here. Packers losing would automatically move us into one of the top 2 seeds. The alternate route is a 2 step process. And requires the 49ers and Seahawks to each lose 1 game.

Vikings are also undefeated at home this year so some streak has to go.

I agree. It only seems fair. 1st Rd bye is great, but knocking Santa Clara Farty Whiners outta the playoffs in Santa Clara would help heal old, old wounds.

Won't happen in California if refs show up for the game.
