There is always hope

[Saintsfan422]

There are two scenarios in which the Buccaneers and the Saints would both make the playoffs tied at 10-6:

The Giants would have to lose out (at Green Bay and at Washington), and the Packers would have to lose to the Bears in the finale, making the Giants and Packers both 9-7.

The Giants win out, and the Eagles lose both of their games (home against the Vikings and Cowboys). The Saints have the tiebreaker for conference record over Philadelphia.
