20 - 17 now. Say the Vikings lose (sorry Six), unless I'm mistaken, Washington can still lose tonight and get the last wild card spot...and set up a rematch with Dallas next week?

EDIT: Second time editing. I was wrong, chicago is in if the Vikes lose.

Damn all these playoff scenarios!

Hey bud, are you at the Wash/Dallas game?

Congrats to the Saints! They set an all-time NFL record today, of yards allowed on defense. 7,042 yards were allowed, shattering the previous record of 6,793. 530 yards were given up today alone!

Actually, this is quite a testament to their offense that they somehow won 7 games this year despite all that.

Congrats to the Raiders on their top 5 draft pick for next year...that does NOT go to Cincy for the Palmer trade.

The Vikings and Green Bay will play in the night game this Saturday at 7 pm central time.

Hey bud, are you at the Wash/Dallas game?

No, my wife is. She asked if I wanted to go, but her cousin bought five tickets for her dad's (my wife's uncle) Christmas / birthday present. She asked if I wanted to go, but I figured it would be nice for her to go with her family (aunt and uncle and their three kids..one of whom flew I from San Francisco).

I'm at home with the kids watching on the big screen.

Congrats on the Vikings getting in...I wished AD had gotten the record.

As for Dallas, I'm ambivalent. If they win tonight, so what? They'll be one and done in the playoffs.

A loss and Jerry Jones might think long and hard about getting a real coach (I know it's been reported that Jason Garrett will remain the Cowboys coach, but one can only hope that Jones changes his mind).

Guess Snyder paid the refs more the Jones. If that was a hold for the first penalty then the redskins must have paid off the refs.

That Roughing the passer call was complete BS. Ruined the game.

That Roughing the passer call was complete BS. Ruined the game.

It was an accurate call...you cannot make contact with the QB's head.

 

[Darth Madden]

That was a BS call. He his his upper chest / neck area not head. They are babying the QB's WAY to much... there was a cheap on in the Seattle game today as well.

But back to the games. I won't call a Seattle win next week but thats gonna be one fun game to watch.

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

It's been an impressive run by the Redskins after their 3-6 start.

Yup, the Seattle/Wash game will be fun indeed.

 

[RPM716]

It's such a shame. The Giants finally get it together, only to get eliminated.

 

[mfoga]

It was an accurate call...you cannot make contact with the QB's head.

Yet they havent called it 99% of the time.

Finally

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

There's a lot of 7-9 teams

And a 1 game difference in the record meant a drop of 7 spots in the draft (Buffalo 6-10 and New Orleans 7-9).

 

[BadMoon]

I kinda feel bad Reid but they made some dumb decisions that led to this. All starting last year. The hiring of Washburn was like bringing the coach version of TO back onto the team. Then the piss poor hiring and play of these supposed outstanding corners in not so Asomugha and Dont Really Care. I also think his sons death played a factor and the fact that he doesn't have any big time leaders in the locker room.

Freaking Cowboys!
