We could still lose the 2nd seed.

As I look at the standings right now. We still could lose the 2nd seed on Sunday. You ask me how is that possible.

Well say we lose to the Falcons, but the Saints lose to the Bucs as well. So we win the division and you think we have a bye week and 2nd seed right? Not so fast. Now to the 49ers and Seahawks. If the 49ers beat the Cards and then the Seahawks lose to the Rams. 49ers win their division and they get the 1 seed because we lost to the Falcons. With 49ers having a better record then us and so would the Seahawks. 49ers would have the 1st seed and Seahawks would have the 2nd seed. There by putting us in the 3rd seed with one home game  in the WC with no bye. Botttom line if we lose to the Falcons on Sunday, but still win the division title. We better hope the 49ers lose to the Cards for us to keep that 2nd seed and the bye.

You have to win your division in order to be anything other than a wildcard. It is impossible for Seattle and SF to be the top 2 seeds.

Edit: you guys are fast

Division winners are from 1-4. The records from those top 4 teams of those divisions are ranked from 1-4.

 

In short, we can only lose the number 2 seed to NO by losing and them winning

 

Hmmm.. Really!! Maybe I didn't take that into account. I thought the teams with the 2 highest records could get the bye weeks and home field. Didn't think about that. LOL

 I should of thought this through a little better. If a mod feels he/she needs to close this thread. I would understand it. :)

 

Shut up.  You did nothing wrong.  None of us know everything all of the time.

 

You are among friends and we do not accept your apology because it is not needed.

 

Pie just for shits and giggles, a Panther playoff berth and because it is the Christmas season.

      Kraven has awful shitty comic book movie vibes all over it. It's just more of whatever studio owns the rights to the Spiderman set, but no longer actually has Spiderman anymore. Wicked is probably no more enjoyable. 3 hour long musicals are tough to endure.

      One of those guys who throws a pass that makes you yell "OMG" then immediately follows it with one that makes you go "WTF" 😳 Essentially the Brett Favre prototype...

      Panthers vs Bucs matchup

      By mav1234 · Posted

      The Giants games are an interesting comparison for sure. We could compare the Chiefs vs the Bucs as well, since at least both teams are largely the same as they are now, rather than the Giants whose coach lost his mind after losing to us. 30-24 KC in overtime. Hunt had 106 yards and Mahomes had 291. Baker threw for 200 yards, but 2 TDs. Their leading rusher had 25 yards or something. Our offense outperformed what the Bucs did vs KC, but being a division game we won't have the benefit of being overlooked. If our D plays how it did in the 4th quarter I think we can get some stops.  Can Bryce carry a second game? I'd rather not find out and have Chuba carry the load, but we'll see.
