    Another TD given up by the elite Giants D. Unless the Packers pull a Giants, this game is over.

    you can take out the if.

    I knew they weren't completely out but I thought it would be more difficult than that.

    Giants could wind up tied with Tampa Bay at 10-6 in your scenario, and they'd have the same conference record. It would go to common games, and I haven't done the breakdown there.

    So it is more complicated than you said. To definitively clinch without it going to common games, they'd need win + GB loss or tie + TB loss or tie

    Another nice pass for Eli. :rofl2:

    According to the Yahoo scenarios Tampa Bay would then get in over New Orleans, but the Giants would still be in. In fact, that's another way the Giants can make it - even if Green Bay wins, if the Giants win and Tampa Bay beats New Orleans, there are four 10-6 teams in the NFC, and Green Bay and the Giants get in.

    It's at New Orleans and it matters a whole lot for the Saints, so I'd be very surprised if the Bucs can beat them.

    that's pre-supposing the MNF result

    New Orleans doesn't end up in there if they beat Atlanta

    21 points up, less than 5 minutes left and GB still going deep.

    Coughlin is going to have a stroke.

    Matt Dodge should have gotten in Coughlin's face after that horrible challenge on the Jacobs fumble.

    You're right - if New Orleans wins tomorrow Green Bay has to lose next week for the Giants to get in.

    This was my best Sunday of the year. 10-2 against the spread (missed with Tennessee and the Jets) and 9-3 straight up (missed with San Diego, Jacksonville, and the Jets).

    Eagles get to enjoy the snowstorm, since they've now clinched the NFC East.

    Eli doesn't take the sack, and gets another INT instead.
