Who do we root for this week?

[bLACKpANTHER]

TNF - Redskins @ Vikings - Vikes, makes sure the Redskins don't have a late season surge

--------------------------------

1:00 - Eagles @ Packers - Eagles, knocks the Packers down and makes NFCE waters muddier

1:00 - Jags @ Titans - push

1:00 - Bills @ Steelers - Bills, makes our SOS look better

1:00 - Raiders @ Giants - Giants**, they are eliminated but gives them hope to be spoiler for rest of NFC

1:00 - Rams @ Colts - Colts, AFC over NFC

1:00 - Seahawks @ Falcons - Falcons, help knock Seattle back down to earth

1:00 - Bengals @ Ravens - push

1:00 - Lions @ Bears - Bears, we own tiebreaker over Bears, but not Lions

4:05 - Panthers @ 49ers - Panthers, obviously

4:25 - Texans @ Cardinals - Texans, to keep Cardinals a game behind in wild card race

4:25 - Broncos @ Chargers - push

SNF - Cowboys @ Saints - Cowboys, obviously.. could potentially put us in 1st place in NFCS

--------------------------------

MNF - Dolphins @ Bucs - Bucs**, smash hopes of playoff football when we play them in a few weeks

 

 

**I know I should probably root for Raiders over Giants and Phins over Bucs (AFC over NFC) but since they are so out of it I don't see the harm into them playing hard and winning a game- especially the Bucs over Phins

I'd say the Lions. With Rodgers out of commission, we want the Lions to run away with division, let the Pack fall off. Previously, The packers and Lions were playoff locks. If only 1 team from the North gets a playoff spot, it frees up another wildcard. The bears will be middling anyway, so they aren't a playoff threat one way or another.

 

Same with the Seahawks. Want them to win and put the division title out of reach, so the Niners aren't playing to catch up to Seattle, but just enough to grab a wildcard. If we lose to them Sunday, we need to have a better record than the 49ers since they will have a tie-breaker. So the last thing we need is them playing like they have a chance to win the West.

I just can't bring myself to pull for Matt Ryan over Russel Wilson

 

and Cutler over Stafford too

IDK about the Bears not being a threat. Forte is playing good football and Cutler claims he is playing this week.

 

We just need that whole division to go 9-7.

The giants are not eliminated...

 

In the crappy NFC east there only 3 games back with 8 to play...

 

2.5 actually!

[SCP]

I root for the Panthers

[Chimera]

How do we own tiebreaker over the bears?

[ctrcat]

I just want to win at San Francisco.

I am also pulling hard for the Cowboys. I am also pulling somewhat hard for the Eagles, Bears and Falcons. Far down on my games of interest board, I'm also pulling for the Titans and Rams. I want the Jaguars to experience the shame of 0-16, get the first pick over the Bucs, and keep the Titans faint hopes alive in the AFC South. I also think a Rams win, though unlikely, helps our SOS and would finally be an UN-luck(y) day for that Luck(y) team. Agree with the rest.

You root for Carolina and only Carolina. ...

[Hawk]

never thought I'd see the day on the huddle where there would be anyone cheering for atlanta over anyone but the taints.

[Snake]

UGH having to pull for the Falcunts and Cowgirls makes me feel dirty.

[dos poptarts]

oh noooooooos....

i will not pull for the Falcons.

 

Besides we already lose the tiebreaker with Seattle....we need Seattle to win the West.
