If the Hawks lock up the division in week 16, should they sit the starters?

It's true that we cannot clinch it in week 16, but that doesn't mean we cannot win the NFCW with a loss to SF in week 17. When all the SOV stuff is settled (which cannot happen before week 17), it may be the case that a win vs SF is unnecessary if we win and they lose this weekend. We'll have to see what else happens in the final week, and it may not be settled before we kick off so mindset-wise it probably doesn't matter.

I think the Niners beat the rams anyways and at that point our game against the cards isnt as important, I think the smart move would be to rest a few guys.

Rams are capable of beating them, BUT we need to make sure guy's that are dinged up a bit get healthier for that 49rs game, because most likely it all comes down to that, and being a division winner or 5th seed is effin HUGE ....

Seattle is going to be really fucking beat up this week on D.

Diggs, Wagner, Griffin, Kendricks, and Clowney did not practice yesterday and Al Woods just go suspended.

Looks like Ansah will be back but fuck man. Getting that first round bye is going to be a big deal.

Breaking Down Seahawks Playoff Scenarios Entering Week 16

So confusing, just win out and make it easy on us, then we are either the #1 or #2 seed. No if and's or buts about it.

Wont be an easy game, our offense will need to score 30 points and not give them easy opportunities.

Im not counting on our D to stop any body.

I'll be doing my part. And latest injury talk I heard made it seem like we will be w/o Clowney, Diggs, Kendricks, and Shaquill Griffin. Sounds like Bobby should be able to go, along with Ansah.

man that's rough. Good to see Bobby being in there at least. If nothing else he is in a dead heat for the NFL season tackle lead.

Rams are putting up a fight at least, but just missed a FG after an INT...

I agree. Just win the game staring you in the face is my motto. All that matters today is beating the Cards. Then on to next week. Let the chips fall where they may. If our guys can win out, great.
Fwiw, I'm extremely happy the Rams are out even though the Niners winning keeps the div up for grabs next week. I was truly worried about the Rams sneaking into the playoffs before their Dallas game. Thankfully, last night ended their season. Cousins and the Vikes could easily have shit the bed the last 2 games and let the Rams in. I'm glad that can't happen. They were the only team in the bunch that I have zero confidence the Hawks could beat.

Saints up 3 with 7:30 to play. Can the titans come back and earn the win?

Gotta be Minn fans tonight to preserve a decent shot at the 2 seed. We could still get it if GB wins tonight, but they would need to lose next week to Detroit. We probably tubed our shot at the 1 seed with last night's dud, but if NO loses to the Panthers, GB loses tonight or week 17, and we beat SF then we got it. I know it doesn't even seem possible to beat SF after the way we played last night, but you see bounceback type performances in the NFL all the time.
