RACE TO THE PLAYOFFS

[Xeliou66]

I think the Eagles have the best shot at the #1 seed, if they beat the Commanders next week in DC they should get it as I bet they crush the Cowboys and G-Men to end the season. The NFC West will likely come down to Seahawks/Rams in week 18, I’m predicting the Rams win it, they are playing really well right now and have a great O. Lions/Vikings week 18 will be huge. I definitely trust Baker more than Cousins right now, he’s a better QB who’s playing much better and I think the Bucs win the division, we just aren’t playing like a playoff team at all.

To me the division games tend to be the most difficult games, so the Eagles will need to bring their A game to all those games. As a bonus, you'll need to keep up with the Lions' O to keep up with them, so to me it's between those 2. Honestly, I'm thinking the rest of the NFC is hoping the Vikings get the 1 seed, just because it's the Vikings and Darnold. You didn't hear that from me...somebody hacked my account

One of the greatest defenses I'd ever seen in my life...

The Seahawks would win the NFC West with 2 Rams losses. Obviously the 2nd Rams loss would be against the Seahawks in Week 18. Winning or losing against the Bears in Week 17 makes ZERO difference to the Seahawks divisional chances. The smart move for the Seahawks would be to pull as many starters as possible against the Bears and concentrate on their Week 18 game.

The Seahawks are currently a 3½ favourite against the Bears. The Bears ought to be favourites. I expect the line to change considerably before Thursday. Just a heads-up for gamblers.

Seahawks need to win both of their remaining games to win the division.

And they need AZ to beat the Rams.

Otherwise they’ll lose out if they finish tied with LA, on account of like the 5th tiebreaker.
