    Last night was a perfect reason why I'd rather play the Cowboys than the Giants. When the Giants are clicking, they are unstoppable. Same goes for the Cards.

    Cowboys win/Giants lose then the NFC teams are set
     
  4. Not quite Double J. Green Bay also has to win against Seattle tomorrow along with the above for New York to be eliminated after Week 16.

    greenbay is going to come out and play like steeltown and the cowboys did last week. this is their pre-february game. if this game is close or the packers lose then i'm thinking right away this game is alll on the coaches....

    I can't imagine the Packers losing to the Seahawks in Lambeau either even though it would be sweet if they did, lol.

    If the Cowboys loose tonight, we can play a relaxed game vs the Cardinals next week, only to met the a 2nd time a week later

    We could end up playing the Eagles in back-to-back weeks as well :icon_eek:

    yep, most of the scenarios play out to have the cowboys-eagles play in back-to-back weeks AND the packers-cardinals to play in back-to-back weeks ...........................

    We know the 6 teams, but 5 of them could grab a first-round bye. It's pretty messy in the NFC right now.

    so pretty much the cowboys still dont have a great shot at the 2 seed but if the eagles win there the 2 seed
     
  19. Now its our turn to play the spoiler role this week against Minnesota. That game starts at 1:00 EST.

    The Eagles-Cowboys game is at 4:15 EST along with the Packers-Cardinals matchup. Could be some scoreboard watching in both those contests unless Dallas and Arizona opt to not show those respective scores.
