For the last playoff spot: Tampa or Minnesota

[Dr. Narcisse]

Tampa could have helped their chances if they beat the fukking Saints

Last 3 games

8-5 Vikings

home Bears

home Giants

away Packers


6-7 Buccaneers

away Rams

home Chicago

Away Panthers



Who gets in

I think Tampa finishes 8-8. Unless the Panthers lose one early and then decide to rest for the final game of the season. Otherwise thats an L.

Vikings should beat the Bears and Giants

But they been so off lately I worry they might slip up


The real key is....who has the best shot at beating the Packers in Green Bay Because thats whats going to be needed for the Panthers/Seahawks to avoid each other in the 2nd round of the playoffs.

Vikings will get it

What's funny is, this might be like 2012. Packers host the Vikings at Lambeau and then they will play each other again the next week at Lambeau. In 2012 the Week 17 game was in Minnesota.

Tampa's finished. Looking at the remaining schedules of the NFC teams, the playoff picture basically set once the NFC East is settled.
1. CAR
2. ARZ
3. GB/MIN
4. NFC East
5. SEA
6. GB/MIN

Need Green Bay to get the 6th seed then

Need that Seattle at Carolina for the Super Bowl

Vikings but so proud that Tampa is even in this discussion.

Doesn't matter to me either way. I still don't think Seattle's good

But yeah GB plays Oak, Arz, Min to finish the year. That's the toughest stretch of any of the NFC playoff teams. That Week 17 GB-Min game can easily be for the NFC North and the 3 seed.

Buc have the key pieces to be a power player but Lovie is thier weak link

Obviously want Cam/Panthers to get to the Super Bowl. Just dont want them having the most difficult road (Seattle AND Arizona)

Thats a lot and usually the best teams don't have to go through 2nd and 3rd best teams.
