Who gets left out? - Peyton - 12-01-2010 06:15 PM
This is a crazy year, so many teams with good records but none with zeroes or ones in the loss column.
There are 7 teams in the NFC that look to be headed toward a playoff worthy record, but only 5 spots available for those teams. I am going to assume Atlanta and NO make it because I think the schedule sets up well for them, and of course, the league will let a team from the NFC West in as well. So...other than that, which of these two get left out in your opinion?
Bears
Packers
Eagles
Giants
Buccaneers
I think clearly the Bucs are favorites to be one of the teams left out.
For the other one....I am going to pick a shocker and say the Eagles miss the playoffs.

Dare I say the Pack gets left out???? Last 3 games of schedule go like this: @NE, vs NYG, vs CHI... the other 2 are vs SF, @Det. I can see them going 2-3. Hell, even 3-2 may not get em in there. I don't know the tiebreaker standings as of now but that's just the way I see it.

Eagles.

I am hoping the Eagles get left out. I want no part of them anymore.

Bucs and Giants get left out.

It will most likely be the Bucs and one of the NFC north teams. I will say the Bears. The reason I say this is because of their brutal schedule left.
Someone pointed out the Packers schedule already, but I think the Bears are worst.
Bears have NE, Jets, and Packers if I'm not mistaken. I didn't check the other 2 teams.

Most likely I'd say Bears and Giants. Their offenses give games away, the Bears have a brutal schedule ahead.
I think there is a good shot the Ain'ts lose 2 of the next 5. Bucs only shot is to beat the Saints in the last game.
As much as I hope the Eagles crumble, I'll have to see how they look against Houston after getting it handed to them by the Bears.

I wouldn't be so sure that it could be the saints. Those last three games of theirs are brutal. Also tue Bears have a tough road and I don't think jay cutler will play this good all those weeks.
RE: Who gets left out? - TonyGraziani - 12-01-2010 07:19 PM
Looking at their schedules I can see all 4 7-4 teams going 3-2. Idk what the tiebreakers are but I would shake it out as
1. Falcons
2. Chicago
3. Philly
4. Rams
5. Saints
6. NYG
2 upsets in the first round, we beat the Giants in the DIV, get revenge on Cutler in the NFCG, and bring home the Lombardi over San Diego
