it’s #6 Cowboys @ #3 Eagles in the Wildcard Round. Eagles won’t be the wildcard.

if the cards fall right.

#5 AZ @ #4 Saints, too.

[Impy]

Wow, another rivalry game win for the skinless ones and another choke by the Sanchezize, I tell you the Eagle’s season ended the day Foles got hurt. Congrats to the Lions on the playoff spot.

Sorry Hale, Eagles need 2 Cowboy losses and a win @NYGs to get in the playoffs now.

[dfwgator]

As of now:

AFC first-round byes: (1) Patriots, (2) Broncos

AFC wild card: (6) Ravens at (3) Colts; (5) Steelers at (4) Bengals

NFC first-round byes: (1) Cardinals, (2) Lions

NFC wild card: (6) Packers at (3) Cowboys; (5) Seahawks at (4) Saints

[big'ol_freeper]

Prediction: Packers will have home field throughout the NFC playoffs.

This is sick. Wth is the matter with you Rivers...

[campaignPete R-CT]

my “inner Bills fan” is thrilled with the 49ers.

[dfwgator]

I think now DeMarco will not play tomorrow. Even if the Cowboys’ lose, as long as they beat Washington they are in....and most likely they will not be able to get a bye even if they win out, because they would be 12-4, along with the North and West Division champs, and against either one of those teams in contention, they would have the worst conference record. Their only hope of getting the bye is if Detroit loses to Chicago and Green Bay loses to Tampa tomorrow or the winner of tomorrow’s Seahawks’-Cards’ game loses their next game.

the fabled 3-way tie at 11-5 with

AZ - GB - DAL ... has now been smashed. Oh, what might have been in tiebreaker fantasy football!

at 12-4 3-way tie, DAL locked in #3.

DAL can still sneak into #5 with tie with GB at 11-5
DAL can still get #1 seed at
SEA 12-4
DAL 12-4 HEAD2HEAD

BUT SEA GETS #1 IN a 3-way.

[Impy]

Eliminated 69ers way out in front. Not looking good for the sex Chargers.

[campaignPete R-CT]

needed to do this with the unexpected expected PHIL loss

1- ...HEAD-TO-HEAD
2- ...DIV REC
3- ...CONF REC
4- ...COMMON GAMES
SOV = Strength of Victory
XXX = no tie is possible.
explained in detail ELSEWHERE in this thread
The bold ones are clinched tiebreakers.
Also, lower case indicates a lead, but not a clinch.
example GB vs DAL:
gb-L3 DAL-4
Means DAL clinched Common games. GB leads in CONF record.
ATL VS N.O.: ATL-2. Atlanta has clinched tiebreaker over Saints due to DIV record

[campaignPete R-CT]

There are no longer any Strength of Victory tiebreakers involved that are unclinched.

so we won’t be watching the DEN vs OAK game next weekend to see whether GB or DAL gets the last wildcard ....

if GB vs AZ goes to SOV, AZ has it.
if AZ loses to SEA and DET beats GB, yes, GB can get SOV, but they will take it on common games. if GB loses to DET, then GB SOV is so weak that AZ has a lock on SOV over GB.

14 point swing! Wild.

Crazy run by Kapernick.

[darkangel82]

90 yards, a new record for a QB. And now another Rivers INT. I don’t think my pick (Chargers) are winning this one.

[campaignPete R-CT]

big victory for the SF Bills!

GO BILLS!

we don’t really have a Vikings-Eagles-Bengals-Cowboys-Steelers family here.

“And that’s how my family became a Vikings-Eagles-Bengals-Cowboys-Steelers-North Korean-ISIS-Jerry Sandusky family!”

[darkangel82]

Rivers to Gates 21 yard TD makes it 35-28.

[Impy]

Tie game!

Go Chargers, go.

[Impy]

Chargers should have had someone in the end zone to try and run a missed kick back.

[darkangel82]

Kapernick could have thrown it here. Instead they try the 60 yard FG which wasn’t even close.

[Impy]

Sex Chargers Win!

Correct pick for you and me.
