NFC South Battle Dome

Jameis looked really good tonight.  Extremely good.  His receivers did as well.  He found ways to keep plays alive, and while he doesn’t have Cams legs, he is more accurate passing on the run.  That 4th Q TD was beautiful.  Our secondary has to stay in coverage and be disciplined  next week.  Without that Peyton fumble at the 5 the Falcons would be out of it.  Surprisingly, this doesn’t hurt us if we can win next week.  IF we win, A Falcons win would be huge. If we don’t, pray to God the Saints win.

Took me a second to understand that diagram...

Anyhow, the only two relevant scenarios are:

1. If beat tampa and atlanta beats the saints this week, our game against atlanta will be for the division winner

2. If we win out and and atlanta loses againts the saints, we would win the division if tampa beats the saints week 17, which is probably not going to happen.

While this scenario is unlikely, it is the scenario we should all be hoping for:

Panthers def. Bucs

Falcons def. Saints

Titans def. Rams

Packers def. Vikings

Panthers would then control their destiny for the #2 seed.

I'm not interested in charts. Charts are for the old regime. We don't do charts anymore

so if Falcons and Panthers win next week, Saints cant win division

if we win this week and lose to atl we're 11-5. If atl wins out they're 11-5 and win the division since they will have the better divisional record. )Ugh, I'd rather NO win the division than atl) So yes, if atl and Carolina win this week the division will go to whoever wins our week 17 match up.

sorry...I had to do the math.

The way Atlanta is playing they have shown to be a struggling team all game long but they barely get by with wins. We should be able to subdue Falcons game day.

Give the NFL some credit. The last two weeks will be a wild ride for the NFC South, which is clearly the premiere division in football and will likely send three teams to the playoffs. 

Also fug the Falcons and the Saints.
