This is their remaining schedule:

They have a bye next week, then...

vs Tampa Bay
at Arizona
at Carolina
vs Seattle
at Tampa Bay
vs New Orleans
at Buffalo
at Green Bay
vs Washington
at San Fransisco
vs Carolina

Assuming 10-6 gets in and 9-7 does not in an average year, they can only lose 2 more games. At Green Bay and at San Fransisco will be tough. If those are the loses, they would have to win every other game including home to New Orleans and home to Seattle.

Tough but not impossible.

Tough but not impossible.

I see them more like 8-8 or 7-9. I have them losing to Seattle, San Fran, New Orleans, and Green Bay. Road games in Carolina, Arizona, and Buffalo may trip them up as well in at least 1 of those 3 games

Season is done unless the defense significantly improves over night.

And I don't think they make the playoffs due to 1 WC spot already being locked up IMO (Seattle/San Fran). I believe the other WC Spot will go to your Bears or the Lions.

^^^Roughly agree. I see the first WC going to an 11-5/12-4 team, the other 10-6. Falcs would have to go 9-2.

It was bad with the strength of schedule that the 3rd place Bears got to play the 3rd place Saints and the 1st place Packers got to play the suddenly bad 1st place Falcons.

Not sure about your entire schedule there, but the Seattle game is in Seattle on MNF. I think maybe you have the road and home games backwards.

Nevermind. My Bad. I thought you were posting New Orleans schedule. Carry on, nothing to see here.

Yeah the 2nd wildcard is probably between Chicago, Detroit, and outside shots at Atlanta and Arizona.

Chicago MUST beat Detroit at home.

Either Seattle of San Fran will get the top wild card spot. So Atlanta will be fighting with the likes of Detroit, Chicago, and Green Bay for that last spot. I really don't see it happening but it'll be close

I can't see anyone else even close. The Rams are horrible. The Bucs and Panthers are horrible. The Vikings are horrible. No way more than 1 team in the East goes above 500 if that even.

Sean McGrath is from my hometown. I am actually friends with him on facebook. Everyone here is proud of him.

In all seriousness, he has been pretty decent for us. I am just a huge Tony G homer (for obvious reasons). McGrath refuses to drop the balls that head towards him.

He was tall but thin growing up. In high school he played WR and you never would have thought in a million years he would be TE in the NFL.

Yeah Gonzo seems like he could play 5 more years, it is insane.

not very good, 1-4 does not bode well for the Falcons.

I would like someone to explain to me why they did not kick a field goal to end the half... the good news for the Jets is that they would have still won even if the falcons kicked it then. that last TD the falcons scored they would have kicked a field goal on one of the 4th down plays to tie the game...
