Best cheerleaders? http://nfl.fanhouse.com/2008/10/30/redskins-cheerleaders-catch-roethlisbergers-eye/ We may be safe in that department as well.

cphil006 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 not winning by a lot hurts our playoff chances? I know what else hurts our playoff chances. Losing. And I'll take any win regardless of point differential over a loss, so lets not get greedy. I know, right? Is the BCS picking our playoff teams?

WinSkins Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 These low scoring games are really gonna hurt us when the first official BCS rankings come out :rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Happy Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Margin of victory is the 9th division tiebreaker. Strength of victory is not how many points you beat teams by. It is the winning percentage of the teams you beat. Margin of victory indirectly comes into play in your points scored for and against ranking, but that is the 7th divison tiebreaker, and not worth gameplanning for.

DrinknKoolAid Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 This thread is just dumb. Everyone knows that playoff seeding never goes down to who scored the most points. At the very most it would come down to divisional record. :logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfish50 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Winning the division will eliminate all this talk about tie breakers. We are only a 1/2 game behind the Giants, with the 2nd best record in the NFC. :steelersu:steelersu:steelersu:steelersu:steelersu:steelersu:steelersu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCS Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 New coach. Actually, new coaches. Few new players and fairly new offense. I'll be happy they make the playoffs no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExoDus84 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I'll take 1 point wins the rest of the season. In fact, I'd take 1 pt wins every single sunday/monday for the skins. 19-0 and superbowl champions baby! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RED06 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Everybody knows that a win is a win. But what people dont uderstand is how the league determines seeding, placement, etc for the playoffs. Margin of victory is one of the things used to make this determination in case of tie-brakers. The way it looks now, we are walking a thin line from becoming a 1st seed (with a bye-week and homefield) or a wild-card (with no bye and all road games). Bottom line is that we actually do NEED to win by larger point margins.Here is a link from to explain how the league determines tie-breakers for the playoffs http://www.nfl.com/standings/tiebreakingprocedures WOW! Dude relax man, points scored per game almost never comes into to play when deciding anything for the playoffs> Try, who has the best division record? Teams that you beat to have the edge in the tie breaker if it comes to that. Just say you would like to see us score more points, that's all! To start a thread on this is "AMAZING", and not to mention not really understanding, that it is way to early to even be thinking about that right now. We just need to keep winning and we're in the playoff "NO MATTER HOW MANY POINTS WE SCORE PER GAME" GEEE WIZ! RED06 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RySkins Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 This is unlikely to come into play this year, but I believe a variation of the point differential tiebreaker cost the Skins a playoff spot in 1979. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When was the last time any playoff seeding was determined by margin of victory? It's not even one of the first 10 methods used. You know why? Because it doesn't mean anything.

KCJDLJ Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 This is hilarious. Points don't come into play until the fifth tie breaker. I've been following the NFL for over forty years and I don't recall a single instance where points scored was a factor in determining a playoff spot. Sure it could happen but it never has as far as I know and the odds are 1,000,000,000,000,000,000:1 against it. If it gets down to that we don't deserve to go anyway.
