Clueless, angry Tampa Bay Buc fans.

[Boltergeist]

The 67 Colts went 11-1-2 and didn't get in.

If McNabb were playing back then, he'd know there were ties. NINE games that year ended that way.

That would be one major meltdown. Alot of bad things would have to happen I would think. The only thing that really makes me nervous is how we play on the road. We just need to take care of business on Sunday and then it's all gravy.

That really goes to show how strong the NFC is this year.

if we meltdown on the next two games we DONT deserve to make the playoffs

[Peppers90 NC]

He's asking why.

I gave him a smartass answer above, though I'm sure it didn't answer his question either.

I'm guessing conference record?

Yes, conference record. We do not have any losses to the AFC and they all have one or two.

If the Panthers lose to the Giants and play the Saints knowing they have to win to make the playoffs, I don't really think we would sit down or not try hard. We could have a 2005 Panthers/Falcons outcome.

[panthers55]

I can understand how they feel. They went from 1st in the division to scrapping for a playoff spot in the course of 2 weeks. If we would lose the next 2, I can only imagine how this board would react, going from a potential number 1 seed to nothing at all.

Like us they controlled their destiny and now need to win out just to make it in. We need to win this week to control ours. If not we will be pretty desperate when we visit the Saints.

Yes it is possible - if the Panthers lose their last two , and the Bucs, Falcons, Cowboys win their last two then the Panthers are out.

One of the three has to lose 1 for the Panthers to at least be guaranteed a wild card.

I see the bucs winning both,the dirty birds?not sure,the cowgirls will lose 1,the Panthers should win at least 1.

[2plankingpanther]

No doubt. I place them in the same category as Red Sox fans.

You meant to say "Yankee fans" correct?!That's ok,we all slip and say the opposite of what we mean!
