Is Akers gonna get cut?

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Boldin killing these boys.

 

[dmxfury]

Ike being out hurts. This team could play 8 quarters and wouldn't score twice to catch up


Ravens fans big White Stripes fans?

 

[elpablo21]

????
Hawks 7-5
Tampa 6-5
Min 6-6
Rams 5-6-1

If they win out they will have beaten all of those teams on their way while having most of the head-to-heads, but also the better conference record, which I think is the second tie-breaker.

Doesnt matter...Seahawks could win the next three and still lose to the rams..finish with 10 wins to their 9

A whole bunch of pointless if's right now but I dont consider them being in the "driver's seat"

 

[mmg]

9ers lost ?

 

[duba169]

If it was a 15 yard penalty wouldn't the defense just intentionally grab the receiver when in a comeback situation?

I feel like it would limit the amount of comebacks. Like if I'm up 7 with a minute left I would just take the 15 yard penalty instead of giving up a giant play

But I guess that is kind of rare

[duba169]

Yeah but the rams also have a tie which is basically a loss in this situation

Never really see that in college, so I don't think it'd be a huge problem

Also one extra loss. I think the winning percentage would be the same....Whatever though. I don't really care.

And actually I think division tie-breakers are applied if the WC teams vying for that spot in the same division. In that case, the Rams are undefeated with a tie.

Corrected

You can't get penalized for having a tie

 

[twozerosix]

Hawks would be 10-6 Rams would be 9-6-1
Bucs/Hawks are getting that last spot.

Seahawks win percentage would be .625

Rams would be around .60

So the percentage still favors the Hawks

Either way, neither team aint winning out anyways

It doesn't matter man. They would have the same winning pct and the Rams would win on beating them twice in head to head matches

 

[DeadsetAce]

god batch missing WIDE open dudes and throws

 

[dmxfury]

So pathetic

I hope not. You guys still have the Niners

 

[duba169]

Damn payton is smart. That wouldn't even come to my mind lol

 

[twozerosix]

What?? 10-6 gets in over 9-6-1

 

[Nike Still Sux]

What?? 10-6 gets in over 9-6-1

I hope it doesn't come down to week 17

 

[elpablo21]

I feel like this whole convo is VERY disrespectful to the Bucs

 

[duba169]

I don't think it works like that

I'm pretty sure 10 wins beats 9 regardless of head to head or division wins

 

[illoquent aka dsk]

lies

You're lying about me lying.

Nobody dislikes Manning. His Papa Johns commercial is even my current favorite commercial out.

"Thanks Papa" makes me laugh everytime.

I actually think that's the worst commercial of the 5,875 he's done in his career. Their exchange seemed forced as hell and that Papa Johns guy always gives off a douche vibe.
