ggarriso Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Holding tickets right now - trying to decide if I should sell high and save for a potential playoff appearance - ?? I suppose if we win next week and dallas drops this game and next week and the giants lost to the ravens then we would have it locked up going into week 16?

TheGoodBits Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Dallas loses today or next week, giants lose next week, and the Skins beat the Eagles next week. Then we'll go into week 17 a game up and owning all tiebreakers due to division record (I think). Edit- scratch that, Dallas could tie our division and conference record with a week 17 win unless they lose to NO next week. Not sure what the next tiebreaker is after that.

GoSkins561 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Dallas needs to lose today and next week, Redskins need to beat the Eagles and the Giants need to lose to the Ravens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostofSparta Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 If the following occurs: -Redskins: win next week -Giants: lose next week -Cowboys: lose this week and next week Then we would clinch the East before the Cowboys game. But I don't quite see that happening. Nevertheless, it is possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek1973 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Giants have to lose another one next two weeks and Dallas must lose to the steelers and NO. I do believe that if they lose to NO and beat the Steelers we still have the tiebreaker against them, better conference record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoCalMike Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 From what I just read, if 'Skins and Dallas finished tied, 'Skins get the tiebreaker due to being 2-1 against common opponents, so Dallas needs to go into the final week at least tied with the Redskins record.

PerryMason Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Dallas loses this week and nextGiants lose next week We win next week We will win the East right then and there This is the correct response. Dallas must lose today AND next week. If they lose one out of two and we win against the Eagles they can STILL beat us and take the division.

War Paint Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 I think there's a good chance that the Cowboys @ Redskins game gets flexed into prime time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 One other way to look at the question would be even if the Redskins were to clinch the division next week, could the Cowboys, at 7-8, still have a chance at the playoffs? Certainly not against the 49ers or Seahawks, who would both make it in (I'm giving the Seahawks 9 wins based on how they are doing so far today. 31 points by half again?? They are making the Skins output look puny by comparison). It'll be interesting to see how things transpire as far as how the time of the Skins/Boys game might be altered.

boston skins fan Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 I think the cowboys only need to lose 1 game. If they lose today we win next week and giants lose I think that's all she wrote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckus Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 I think the cowboys only need to lose 1 game. If they lose today we win next week and giants lose I think that's all she wrote No. If that were to happen and the Cowboys beat us in Week 17, they win the division on tie breakers. I think . . .

Mr. Nostril Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 The reality of our playoff situation right now is that we have little motivation to cheer for anything except Redskins wins. If we win the last 2 games we win our division, but we can't get past the Falcons or the Packers, so we can't possibly get a first round bye. So, along as we win our last two games, we're guaranteed either the 3 or 4 seed with no chance at a first round bye, regardless of what additional help we have.

ExoDus84 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 As long as the skins win next week, if they lose to dallas and finish 9-7, we make the playoffs if: 1) Giants lose 1 out of their last 2 AND 2) Seattle loses 1 of the last 2 3) Bears lose 1 of the last 2 4) Minnesota lose 1 of the last 2 If we win out, there is no scenario where we don't make the playoffs.

CaliSkinsFan92 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 I'm going to the Dallas game and while it would be fun and exciting to have to win to get in, it sure would help my sleeping if we somehow clinched a spot before then haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how huge the steelers losing today was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 We didn't get any help from the Steelers today, but the Giants collapsed, so it's cool. We win next week and the NFC playoff picture will be finalized at FedEx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek1973 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Well looks like we need to win the last two. The Pukes got two improbable wins back to back you have to give them cudos. On the other hand, they are lucky SOBs and I can't stand them... Now for the people that are in the know, if they lose next week and they beat us I think we still are in first if the Giants lose. We have a better conference record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
