TB, ATL are winnable, as is the Jets game. MN at home. I could see this going through a range of 2-4 to 5-1. We'll see.Pretty tough schedule. Only guarantee win seems to be the GB game assuming A-Rod isn't back.

Don't count the Packers out
You can't count anybody out but it will be tough for them to make it.
I went with Eagles, Vikes, Saints, Rams, Hawks and threw a dart and came up with Lions. I realize the Panthers should be considered more likely though but one bad hit to Cam and they are done, imo. He plays way too risky, imo. Also, Keuchly scares me. He is a great player but the way he flies around and his history, he is one bad luck scenario from having his career ended. I would hate for that to happen because I respect and admire the kid but the way things have gone this season, it just scares me.
The Carolina at Atlanta game will likely decide one of the wilcards as both teams hold the tiebreaker over Detroit . Lions could still get the other if the Rams beat Seattle out for the west.
Well my take on the west is that it will of course come down to one game between the Rams and Seahawks and when the seahawks need to win one game at home they know how to step it up if they have to. I think the rams may even find themselves on the outside looking in if (and only if) they lose todayEagles, Vikes, Saints are almost certain to make it in.
The West is a really tough one to call but I'll give a slight edge to the Rams. They have a one game edge over Seattle right now and they are just in better shape healthwise.
I'll say the Lions will make it mainly on the virtue of after the Vikings game tomorrow the rest of their schedule is against .500 or less teams.
Which leaves the Panthers, Falcons, and Seattle for the final spot and it's really close but I'll give it to Carolina but I could make a strong case for any of the 3.
Yeah, I know it looks favorable right now but 12-4? I don't see that at all. 10-6 at best. I see them losing to the Saints, Vikes and Falcons in Atlanta. They should beat the Bucs, Jets, Packers but these next 3 could have Cam beat up pretty good and 9-7 isn't really that far fetched either. 1 or 2 of those teams could surprise them.Have you seen Carolina's remaining schedule? Three straight home games, good chance for two, the jets this week, and a possibly done Atlanta week 17. And it's no telling against NO. I see 12-4.
Honestly 9-7 may get it done with all the tiebreakers BUT I'd feel better at 10-6. Just gotta sweep Tampa and win 2 of the other 4 ( with 3 of them at home )Atlanta needs to be concerned about their last five games imo. If saints sweep them, as they have swapped such the last few years, then they are in trouble. 9-7 is not getting in.
Yeah, gotta win those home games for sure. I think the week 17 game in Atlanta will be huge and decide the WC team.Honestly 9-7 may get it done with all the tiebreakers BUT I'd feel better at 10-6. Just gotta sweep Tampa and win 2 of the other 4 ( with 3 of them at home )
