Guest bravesfan Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Bravesfan, will the tie game count as a win, loss, or tie for everyone? Please make it not a win, because first place would remain with me. Thanks. It's a loss for everyone, Leena. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted November 11, 2002 WOOOOO!!!!! After getting blown out in the most important game they had all year and then taking the week off... my team is in a three way tie for first in the division!!!!! God I love the wacky NFL!!

Guest Leena Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Buffalo is in 3rd place due to the division tiebreaker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest fazzle Report post Posted November 11, 2002 But they still have 3 more games in which to turn around that division record. Woo! Go Bills! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Leena Report post Posted November 11, 2002 I don't know if I'd be excited about that after their last performance. The Bills' have defeated Minnesota, Chicago, Detroit, Houston and Miami (where Lucas handed them the game). I don't see the Bills having a chance against New England or New York... and Fiedler should be back for the Miami game. All 3 of those will be losses for Buffalo.

Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted November 11, 2002 So lets see.. Atlanta (tied) is 5-3-1 (Hold the Wild Card currently) NY Giants (won) are 5-4 1/2 game back Arizona (lost) is 4-5 1 game back Washington is 4-5 St. Louis is 4-5 Washington plays at the Giants next week and St. Louis the week after. My hope is that Stephen Davis is back next week and they can beat the Giants (they aren't that good..) and then the Redskins and Rams meet up with Warner tanking it for them because Martz goes with Warner instead of Bulger (Who should be starting if they expect to make the playoffs..)..The rest of their schedule (at Dallas, Giants, at Philly, Houston, Dallas) lends itself to a 4-1 record (or better).. The Redskins aren't out of this thing, they just really need Stephen Davis back BAD so that Spurrier will stick with the running game... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Leena Report post Posted November 11, 2002 *Edit: I keep forgetting Tampa is in the South Nevermind. I think the 2 wild card spots will be fought for amongst New Orleans, Atlanta, and St. Louis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrTom Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Wouldn't it be something if the Rams came back and made the playoffs? They were given up for dead by everyone (including me) when they started 0-5. Today, they learned they could win without Warner AND Faulk. If they end up 10-6, I'd say they're a lock, and that would be one hell of a turnaround. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Leena Report post Posted November 11, 2002 I said the Rams had to win their final 11 to make the playoffs... and there's still a good chance of that. At 10-6, Atlanta would have to lose 3 more games... I wouldn't bet on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted November 11, 2002 St Louis will be out of the playoffs the minute they start Warner over Bulger, which looks to be next Monday night vs the Bears.. Im taking the Bears in that game if the Rams start Warner over Bulger.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Leena Report post Posted November 11, 2002 That's rather harsh... I'd hope Martz realizes that he has to give the ball to Marshall til he drops... I hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Falcons remaining schedule Sun, Nov 17 New Orleans (possible loss) Sun, Nov 24 at Carolina (win) Sun, Dec 1 at Minnesota (win) Sun, Dec 8 at Tampa Bay (should lose) Sun, Dec 15 Seattle (win) Sun, Dec 22 Detroit (win) Sun, Dec 29 at Cleveland (Could be interesting, the Browns could be fighting for the playoffs..right now its a win) there are 3 possible losses if Cleveland needs that final game..and if they lose 3 games they would be 9-6-1 because of the tie which would screw them if the Rams/Redskins/Giants have 10 wins..

Guest AlwaysPissedOff Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Those crazy Champaign-Urbana Bears, they just keep coming up with new and innovative ways to fuck up. As always...I blame it on Jim Miller. Whether he played or not, it is always Jim Miller's fault. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention how friggin hilarious that quote was. Oh yeah... GO JAGS!!!!! ONLY ONE GAME UNDER .500!!!! Sigh...

Guest Leena Report post Posted November 11, 2002 I didn't know the Falcons had that easy of a schedule left. I'm more confident in my bet. Of course, you never know what will happen with injuries, and Vick... but there are 5 games they should easily win, and they already won in NO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Leena Report post Posted November 11, 2002 The Redskins and Giants will not have 10 wins... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted November 11, 2002 That's rather harsh... I'd hope Martz realizes that he has to give the ball to Marshall til he drops... I hope. Uh..last time I checked Faulk hurt his ankle today..I don't know any more than that, but if he doesn't play and they give the ball to Kurt Warner vs the Bears without Faulk, I GUARANTEE the Bears will win. As far as the Redskins not getting to 10 wins: They have 3 Games vs teams from Texas (2 Dallas, 1 Houston) and 2 Games vs the Giants. That is 5 Games that the Redskins SHOULD win (provided Stephen Davis is back..). That leaves St. Louis and Philly. Philly doesn't look invincible after todays walloping and see above for my feelings on St. Louis... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Kingpk Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Why is ANYONE wasting brain cells trying to figure out the playoff picture when 3/4 of the league is around .500? I really can't see one team that you can safely say is a true Superbowl contender (Packers included and the Bucs will choke in either the Wild Card or Divisional as usual). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Well, considering how bad the NFC is, The Packers have all but Clinched the NFC North (8-1), The 49ers have all but Clinched the NFC West (7-2). There are only 5 teams right now that have a shot at the 2 Wild Cards and it is pretty much between New Orleans/Tampa Bay(both 7-2, whichever doesn't win the South) Atlanta, St. Louis (for now) Washington and the NY Giants. Teams out of it (not mathematically eliminated but still..) NFC North (Packers have clinched, havent they? 5 Game lead on Detroit with 7 games left) Chicago (2-7) Minnesota (2-7) Detroit (3-6) NFC West Seattle (3-6) Arizona (4-5) NFC East Dallas (3-6) NFC South Carolina (3-6) The AFC is still pretty much wide open, the only teams you can eliminate right now are Houston (2-7) and Cincy (1-8)..all the other Teams are at least 4-5 or better and no further back than 2 games from first place..

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted November 11, 2002 With the banning of Leena, I am going to have to ask that I be put in her place in the standings. She would have wanted it that way. Fo sheez, Kotzenjunge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Uh..no..well..it wouldn't matter cause you cant pick games like she did. Kingpk won this week hes 11-1 (missed philly and the Tie game) so he's got the bonus regardless of what happens on MNF. Im still 3rd place, tied with Kingpk if Denver wins..and ahead of him by 1 pt if Denver loses. Regardless of what happens on MNF Im 9 pts out of first and 5pts out of 2nd..

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Actually, I'd just ask her what to pick over AIM or something. I've been doing pretty well the last several weeks, actually.
