Current Playoff Picture

[stratopanther]

Look at the AFC teams in the hunt for a laugh. NFC is gonna be tough. Several good qbs on the bubble in our conference. 

[Snake]

We basically need to win out. I don't know how we can do it but if we can get healthy it's not impossible. 

[SurvivalSloth]

With this defense, I'm not scared of anyone. But I'd really like to try and have those games in BoA just for insurance.

Those losses to the Eagles and Saints loom super large at this point :( would have rather dropped the Pats and Bills games and won those two NFC tilts....

The head to head with the Eagles sucks but we can negate the Saints win by beating them in New Orleans.

[I'm the Mike]

I'll take vikings and cowgirls over rams, but I ain't scared. We've been good against the run all season and our DBs are improving weekly. 

Dak vs Cam would bring a lot of articles and speculation from the media.

Plus burning Mike Remmers in the playoffs would be mildly amusing.

For anyone who thinks the Eagles are a lock for the 1 seed, I say not so fast, look at their upcoming schedule..

@ Cowboys

Vs Bears

@ Seattle

@ Rams

@ Giants

Vs Raiders

Vs Cowboys

Eagles have only played two teams with a winning record all season and they are 1-1, loss to the Chiefs and a win against us. They are far from being a lock for the 1 seed.

They aren’t even a lock to win that division.  I wouldn’t be shocked to see Dallas pull within a half game them in two weeks

[NAS]

I would rather face the Rams offense than thw Vikings defense.  I would feel good about our match up. Shut down Gurley and blitz the hell out of Goff.

NFC 

- Eagles #1 seed, Saints #2 seed, first round byes

- Wild Card Round : Cowboys (#6 seed) vs Vikings (#3 seed)   / Panthers (#5 seed) vs Rams (#4 seed) 

AFC

- Steelers #1 seed, Patriots #2 seed, first round byes

- Wild Card Round : Bills (#6 seed) vs Cheifs (#3 seed)  /  Jaguars (#5 seed) vs Titans (#4 seed)

I would not want to see the Rams in the wildcard in LA. Thats like the ultimate test for our defense..  and then possibly re matching the Saints and Eagles in the next two rounds. That would be an insanely difficult playoffs trek. 

In 7 weeks 5 of these teams won't be on this list......

If this were the scenario, I'd have confidence in stopping the Rams offense. Goff has improved but he really hasn't seen a front like ours.

Even more of a reason to lean on the running game.
