Will an 8-8 team make the NFC playoffs?

[xtheronx]

I don't think so. These teams are locks IMO

New Orleans

Atlanta

Minnesota

New York Giants

(NFC West Winner)

That leaves 2 slots left (1 available slot for the panthers to take) for these teams to compete for

Arizona

SanFran

Dallas

Philly

Green Bay

Chicago

Carolina

unfortunately, Dallas and Philly own tiebreakers over us, and our 3 losses are to NFC opponents which will bite us in the arse down the road.

actually that leaves 1 slot (4 division winners and 2 wild cards).. which philly or chicago will prob take..

Philly lost to Oakland...they still have some work to do.

I think the Giants are far from a playoff lock. Will they make it? More likely than not. But far from a lock.

We would need an NFC South team to slip for us to gain a WC.

[Catdaddy]

Atlanta will be that team.We played them close,and they should have lost that game about three different times yesterday

At this point I will take a Winning season and a new QB from the 2nd round in 2009

We do get the 49'rs 2nd round pick this year, so I hope they suck and we do well, then we get 2 great picks in the top 40-60

[AKPantherFan]

honestly--

what we need is

FOR DREW BREES AND MATT RYAN TO GET HURT

Hate to say it, but its the truth.

oR we need to TRADE FOR TOM BRADY.

When your QB is leading the league in INTS, the playoffs are pretty much out of the question.

This is the 1st years that Jake has taken us OUT of the playoffs before the season was 1/2 way over.

WAY TO GO JAKE

.....asshole....
