WheresRickySanders83 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 At this point, I'm focused more on the division than the WC. I'm really confident that we'll win the rest of our NFCE games and defeat Baltimore next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momma There Goes That Man Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Yea but Seattle needs to lose at some point too You mean to an NFC team like Green Bay early in the season? Oh yeah, looks like that screwjob is going to end up being pretty important after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DogofWar1 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 So here is how I'm seeing it, Redskins get to 9-7, and the Seahawks lose one of their games, we are in, is that correct? If we're 9-7, they need to drop 2 and we need to own the tiebreaker (which I think would be record against common teams, if I'm not mistaken). If they drop one, we need to win out and again, own the tiebreaker. If they win out, we're out. If the tiebreaker is common teams, we might be in trouble, they're 3-1 (played Dallas, St. Louis, Carolina, and Minnesota so far, have another St. Louis game to go), we are 2-2 (played Dallas, St. Louis, Carolina, Minnesota, with Dallas to go). So yeah, they need to lose, and specifically to St. Louis, while we need to win against Dallas. I think that's how that tiebreaker works. If that happens, we tie it up, 3-2 in common opponent games. If tiebreaker gets to NFC opponents records we're both 5-4 against NFC, with 3 games to go each in the NFC. They have Arizona, San Fran, and St. Louis, while we have NY, Philly, and Dallas. So yeah, Seattle needs to lose to San Fran and the Rams. The Rams need to beat Tampa and Seattle, but drop Minn and Buf. I'm not worried about Minn, they have 6 losses and still have to face the murderer's row that is Chicago, GB, and Houston. I know it's all moot if we lose, but I'm a sucker for calculating scenarios. I'm the guy who would sit around in menus for hours min-maxing parties in videogames, so this is "fun" for me, even though it ultimately means nothing if we lose.

Kindred Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Enough with the captain obvious "We just need to win all of our games" comments. This thread is about OTHER teams that need to win or lose that will help our chances of making the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zazzaro703 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 All this doesn't matter. I gurantee if the Skins get to 9-7 with the one loss being Baltimore or Cleveland, we WILL make the playoffs as the 6th wild card or east champs. The rest will handle itself.

NoVaSkins21 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Although Seattle winning hurts, it doesn't mean the Seahawks are a shoe-in. They still have SF left, albeit at home, who's only 1.5 games up in the division now. The 49ers are going to play hard if they want to win the division. Buffalo, their only road game left, won't be a cupcake either. All that being said, the Skins need to care of business tomorrow night and play for the NFC East because the Vagiants don't have a easy schedule at all.

PerryMason Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Good week for us. Losses for the Saints, Vikings, and Bucs. If we win on Monday we are in GREAT shape moving forward in the race for both the NFCE and the Wild Card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooleyfan1993 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Skins could very well be first in the NFC East by the end of next week. but thats saying that we will beat the giants tomorrow night.

SKINSFAN87 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 minnesota and tampa bay lost and the seahawks won, so I believe that the skins game is a must win on monday night so that we can maintain a game out from the wildcard and also within a game of the division crown. I'm really starting to like our chances to make the playoffs, a far cry from three weeks ago. HTTR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueskin Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I don't know. I don't think we are going to catch the Seachickens. I'd like to have faith, but we dug ourselves too deep a hole with losses to the Lambs and such. We HAVE to beat the G-men tomorrow, to restate the obvious. I'm hoping they don't go on one of their trademarked runs. As far as Dallas, we might have to wait until week 17 to give them the coup de grace. 10-6, we're in. 9-7, maybe. But its easier if we just focus on winning the division. 4-2 or 5-1 in the division should do it for us. (It goes without saying, we have to de-bone the Eagles and crush the Cowboys again as well, no mean feat). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostofSparta Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Why what does that do for us? If the Ravens win tonight, they clinch a playoff spot and basically own the division. It doesn't mean much for us except that it could make them a little less intense next week with that bit of relief. Plus, could lead to them overlooking us in favor of that matchup with the Broncos for the #2 spot. Not much, but it's better than them losing and coming in pissed and a little more deperate.

It annoys me to no end to see people commenting on this. WE DONT PLAY the game like ST said. We can look as far or as short as we want to. The only thing that makes sense sometimes is not getting your hopes up to high, otherwise there is no reason as a fan you cant look as far ahead as you want.
