The NFC playoff picture

Mike · 11-13-2006, 10:02 AM

How many tiebreakers is it going to take to decide playoff spots in the NFC at this rate?

Dallas, Philadelphia, and Atlanta are all 5-4
Green Bay, Minnesota, San Francisco, and St. Louis are all 4-5
Carolina will be either 5-4 or 4-5 after tonight.

The Giants are 6-3, but beaten all to hell.
The Saints are 6-3, but remember just a couple weeks ago they were 6-1. The Saints will be right in the middle of this mess most likely after the Bengals beat them.

How do you see all of this finishing out?

First I still see two teams coming from the NFC east.
I see only Chicago from the north. I see only Seattle from the west. That leaves two from the south.

So...I see: New Orleans as a WC, I see Carolina winning, I see Eagles and Dallas from the East...as NYG are simply losing too many key pieces in a crucial time(repeat 2nd half slide like last year???

)

Here's a prediction. There will only be one 11-5 team and no 12-4 teams coming from the NFC.

Somewhat bold prediction: SF will win the NFC West with a 9-7 record. There's no way StL or Seattle will be able to compete down the stretch with this many lingering injury problems.

Ready for another 40+ to 40+ game?? What unique way to you think the Bengals can come up with to loose this one?

Seahawks may be getting Hasselbeck and Alexander back this week, both cleared to practice, so I think they will now go ahead and lock up the West.

Rams are going to have a tough time for the rest of the season without Pace on the offensive line.

Seattle will have at least the #2 seed in the NFC with a min of 11 - 5, 12 - 4 is not out of the question

I can definitely agree with the #2 seeding, providing the quarterback and running back are 100% ready to go.

Mile High is not a strange place to the Seahawks. If anyone can do it there the Hawks can
