But aren't the tiebreakers different for 3 teams? If Saints lose to Chiefs and then win out, and Rams win out, we lose to only Tenn, all 3 of us are at 12-4. And all 3 of us are 10-2 in NFC games.go pak go wrote: ↑14 Dec 2020 07:28Huh. It does look like we will have the tiebreaker over the Rams OR Seahawks at 12-4 if that loss is to TN.packman114 wrote: ↑14 Dec 2020 07:13So we win a 3-way tie with Saints & Rams? Anyone know how? All 3 of us would have 2 conference losses.
We get the tiebreaker over the Seahawks at 12-4 with Conference Record.
We get the tiebreaker over the Rams with Common Games.
It looks like our common games is TB and SF.
Because SF swept the Rams and we beat SF, we win the tiebreaker over our one loss to TB and the Rams defeat over TB.
Yes. Three way tiebreakers can throw a wrench in things. In this situation it does not because we hold tiebreakers over both the Saints and Rams AND the Saints hold the tiebreaker over the Rams.packman114 wrote: ↑14 Dec 2020 07:57But aren't the tiebreakers different for 3 teams?

Playing around a bit with this....
You are correct. If the Chiefs hold on, the Packers clinch the #1 seed with 1 win and a Seahawks loss or tie the rest of the season.YoHoChecko wrote: ↑20 Dec 2020 18:16My understanding of the situation right now is that if....

a win AND
a Rams win or tie against the Seahawks
Sounds good. A little conflicted going into Week 17 with nothing on the line, but we need to secure this #1 seed anyway possible.YoHoChecko wrote: ↑20 Dec 2020 18:16My understanding of the situation right now is that if....

Of course if the Jets can beat them in LA...go pak go wrote: ↑14 Dec 2020 10:01I think Rams at this point is the NFC team I want to play the least.
Watching that Vikes and Bucs game, once again I was convinced the Vikes were better than the Bucs. Similar to our game, it was MN beating themselves with missed kicks, the big bomb to Miller and honestly bullsh*t penalties that are always called in favor of Brady.

I would love to give that game to Love. Maybe let Aaron play first quarter or first TD and pull him, just to let him stay in the game day ritual, then Love time.NCF wrote: ↑20 Dec 2020 18:37Sounds good.

You only do that if you think he has a remote possibility of being ready. We don't see that. The coaches would.BF004 wrote: ↑20 Dec 2020 19:56I would love to give that game to Love.
