It’s going to be a massive uphill battle for the Niners to make the playoffs now, they are very banged up and they have a very tough schedule - still have to play the Bills, Lions, Rams, Cards and Dolphins.

The Niners big problem is that they are Zero and Three in the Division any other loss in division makes winning division very difficult. They won't have a good enough record for Wild Card. Actually wrong about that 1-3. Not helpful.
Re-posting it to update my wrong Info.

Looking at the other NFC West teams schedules from here out

6-5 Seattle are @Jets, @ Cards, Packers, Vikings, @Bears, @Rams
5-5 Rams are Eagles, @ Saints, Bills, @49ers, @ Jets, Cards, Seahawks
6-5 Cards are @Vikings, Seahawks, Patriots, @Panthers, @Rams, 49ers

So schedule looks like it should be Arizona, but none of them have a cakewalk schedule from here out. I've seen crazy stuff happen before...so it will be interesting to see who can put something together

@Bills....@Dolphins...@ Cardinals.
Home for the Bears, Rams & Lions.

As I said earlier....I see 2-4...or 3-3....which likely won't be enough.
4-2 could do it....and 5-1 definitely would....but that ain't happening.

Looking at NFC North....Lions have 4 of last 6 at home...should be top seed when all said and done.

10-1 Lions - Bears, Packers, Bills, @Bears, @49ers, Vikings
9-2 Vikings - Cards, Falcons, Bears, @Seahawks, Packers, @ Lions
8-3 Packers - Dolphins, @Lions, @Seahawks, Saints, @Vikings, Bears

Lions and Packers both play the next 2 Thursdays....Lions vs Bears and Packers vs Dolphins on Thanksgiving then each other in Detroit the next Thursday.

Redskins with what looked to be an easy schedule. Not so sure now. Of course redskins are 7-5, not 7-7. Yet

5-5 Rams are Eagles, @ Saints, Bills, @49ers, @ Jets, Cards, Seahawks
6-5 Cards are @Vikings, Seahawks, Patriots, @Panthers, @Rams, 49ers
5-6 49ers are @Bills, Bears, Rams, @Dolphins, Lions, @Cards

So, do the division leaders hold on? Which other 3 get in as wild cards. Saints, Bears and Cowboys all at 4-7 would have to go 5-1 down the stretch to have a shot, I just don't see it, but Dallas and New Orleans don't have brutal schedules...but 2 losses probably ends their chances.

Sorry if I tagged you, wasn't my intention but the board did it automatically when I copy and pasted.

You just never know. We haven't seen Josh Allen have one of those games that just leave you wondering what the hell happened and the Lions might not be playing for anything in week 17. It really depends on if you get your guys back and when.

I think it’s almost certain the Lions, Packers and Vikings are all in the playoffs, so that leaves just 1 Wild Card. I think the Eagles will win the East, and I think my Falcons will hold on and win the South (helps having the tiebreaker over the Bucs), the NFC West is tight, not sure who will win - I like the Rams chances to be honest, if their D holds up, we’ll see how they do tonight against a strong Eagles team but I like what they have. I think the Commanders/Skins are probably in but who knows, they may completely collapse.

So if the Rams win tonight there is a three way tie for the lead at 6-5 & 4th place one game behind. Interesting.
With three way ties they dont use head to head. So who is in 1st with tie breakers?

I think if the Bucs sneak into the playoffs, they could upset some teams.
