The Hell that must freeze over for the Panthers to make the playoffs

[antame]

Go Panthers!

[SgtJoo]

The following things must happen:

1) We win out. There is no scenario that gets us in without winning out. (ATL, Hou, TB, NO)

2) Atlanta loses 3 of 4 of their remaining games. (Car, Jac, NO, TB)

3) Detroit must lose out (or lose 3 & tie 1) (Min, Oak, SD, GB)

Could have missed something- http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/playoffscenario?algorithm=WinningPct

But hell thats enough, fun thought though. Hopefully next year we'll be in a 'win and you're in' situation.

Yes I'm bored.

1) Possible

2) Not possible (Possible, No way in hell, Probable, Same as Jax)

3) Don't see it, but more likely than ATL (Possible, Possible, Not probable, Possible)

By the way, Vegas had us at 4 wins on the year. We're gonna get that 5th win, I just know it.

F you VEGAS!!!

There is many possibilities.

Either Chicago loses out or either Detroit loses the remainder of their games. Which team do you think has a chance of doing that?

Panthers has to win out.

Falcons has to lose the 2 of the last 4.

1. Packers - 16-0

2. 49ers -14-2

3. Saints - 12-4

4. Cowboys - 9-7 or Higher (We need to the Cowgirls to sweep the NY Giants to win the division. If they can't sweep them, we need them to have a better record than them in the end.)

WILDCARD TEAMS

5. Lions/Bears - 8-8 or higher (It can only be one or the other. I pick the Lions because I can really see Chicago losing the remainder of their games. Also the Lions can still make the playoffs with winning 1 out of their last 4 games

6. Panthers - 8-8 (Simply put...we must win out.)

We would face the Saints in the Wild-Card round :)

We do have a shot. The two major questions is this.

Out of Chicago or the Lions, which one do you believe can lose the remainder of their games? The next question is do you believe the Panthers can win the remainder of their games?

I'm not counting on it, but it is kind of fun to know that it's still possible :)

Not blowing the Detroit game would've really helped out slim chance. On 2nd thought, not blowing half the games would've. Frustrating year, but gotta love the potential.

You guys know that three teams from the same division are allowed to go to the playoffs, right? Atlanta being the 5th seed and us being the 6th is more likely than anything else I've seen you guys post.

First and most importantly we have to win this weekend. Michael Turner gives us absolute fits.

Games we SHOULD have won: Arizona, Minnesota

Games we PROBABLY could have won: Chicago

Games that we were in, but PROBABLY wouldn't have won without some luck: Packers and Saints

Don't the Bears, Giants, and Lions have to lose a lot for another scenario?

6th seed? I'll take it.

Yo we got this!!!

The Bears have fallen apart. Detroit is in a tailspin. Giants have 6 wins and a tough schedule. I can see the benefit in pulling for Atlanta to lose-we would hold the tiebreaker over them if we did our business and didn't kill ourselves-but I don't believe it's the only way.

blah blah blah lets get win number 5 first.
