Well, we can only hope it all works out! But we need to win out and NE pretty much would need to lose out!

Here is a current listing of the playoff picture:

Rank Record Div Conf

1) Ind 13-0 6-0 11-0
2) Cin 10-3 5-1 7-3
3) Den 10-3 3-1 7-2
4) NE 8-5 4-0 6-4
5) Jac 9-4 2-2 7-3
6) Pitt 8-5 3-2 6-5
7) SD 8-5 3-1 6-3
8) KC 8-5 3-2 7-3
9) Mia 6-7 1-3 4-5

Tie breaker is NE's! Div 4-2 if they lose to NYJ and Mia
Mia would be 3-3 in the Div.

Our only hope is that they lose out! Go TAMPA BAY!!!
I will unfortunately have to cheer an AFCE opp in 2 weeks! The juts.:o

Or if

Steelers
KC
SD


all lose 2 of 3

we are in if we win out

but yeah for the first time in my life I will have to side with those guys that say J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS :(
 
No, KC or SD will have 9 wins b/c they play each other. We need KC to win then lose out. Then it goes to common opponent or something since KC and Mia would go to the 3rd tie breaker.

SD would win on the first tie breaker which would be a 4-2 record in their div if they beat KC and lose to Den and Ind

So basically we need 3 Pats losses or win out and a KC win over SD and then losses to NYG and Cin. Pitt to lose out or drop 2 of the 3 including a loss in the Clevland game or Pitt would win the tie breaker.

Pit would need to drop the Clevland game and another one. They would have the same div record but would then lose to us on a conference record at 6-6 and we could be 7-5.

If Jac lost out to Hou,Tenn and SF then we would win the tie breaker there as well. Jac div record would be 2-4. 1 win assures them a spot at 10-6.

That is it! Pretty simple. A small miracle!
The best hope is Pitt to fall apart, SD could easily lose out. and then a KC collapse and it is in we go.
 
Sorry it is looking even worse now. I just looked at it again and KC would beat us in a tie breaker of div record at 4-2.

Only hope is Pitt and Jac. losing out!

that was wrong

KC and SD both have 8 wins

KC can win one game other than the chargers game

we finish tied w SD and KC we win the tiebreaker

KC is eliminated because automaticly when 2 teams in the same divison go for the wild card, if one was swept by the other they are out

then MIA holds the tiebreaker over SD because of our win today
 
Put better!
NE has to lose out
Jac has to lose out to SF/HOU/TENN
Pitt has to lose to Minn/Clev/Det
The loser of the SD KC game needs to lose ou as well

So it will need to look like this to make it as a WC

1-Ind
2-Cincy
3-Den
4-Ne
5-KC/SD
6-Mia due to 3 straight loses by Pitt,Jac,and sd or KC
No other way I can see it!

It is not necessary for all these other teams to lose out. Pittsburgh, San Diego and Kansas City can ALL win one more game - but not two - and we can still win a wildcard. It all depends on which games they each win.

Jacksonville losing out would be a bonus, putting two wildcard slots in play instead of one. But that isn't actually necessary either.

Yes Jac could win out and if head to head is the 1st tie breaker, then SD would have to beat KC and lose out to Ind next week and Den in week 17. Denver will be resting players though.

No but automatically if 2 teams for the same divison are in a wildcard scenario involving 3 teams, if one team was swept by the other they are out regardless of what they did to the third team

thats why if SD wins vs KC

and we end in a three way tie we get the wild card

KC is out beause of SD and SD is out because of us

NFL Tiebreaking Procedures
(March 20, 2002) -- With the NFL realigning into eight four-team divisions to accommodate the arrival of the Houston Texans, the league adopted new tiebreaking rules.


Common opponents will now be the third tiebreaker within a division after head-to-head games and division record because each of the four teams will have 14 common games in the 16-game schedule. The owners also moved the strength-of-victory tiebreaker ahead of the strength-of-schedule tiebreaker.

The six postseason participants from each conference will now be seeded as follows:
1. The division champion with the best record.
2. The division champion with the second-best record.
3. The division champion with the third-best record.
4. The division champion with the fourth-best record.
5. The Wild Card club with the best record.
6. The Wild Card club with the second-best record.

The following procedures will be used to break standings ties for postseason playoffs and to determine regular-season schedules.
NOTE: Tie games count as one-half win and one-half loss for both clubs.

TO BREAK A TIE WITHIN A DIVISION
If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined.

Two Clubs
1. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs).
2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.
4. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
5. Strength of victory.
6. Strength of schedule.
7. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed.
8. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed.
9. Best net points in common games.
10. Best net points in all games.
11. Best net touchdowns in all games
