Reply #4: Arizona and Washington are still officially IN IT

[Champ]

Here is how and what they will need to happen.

Week 15
Washington defeats SF, 'Skins are 5-9
Carolina loses to Atlanta goes to 6-8
Minnesota defeats Detroit, Detroit goes to 5-9
Arizona defeats St Louis, Arizona goes up 5-9, STL goes to 6-8
Pittsburgh defeats NY Giants, NY goes to 5-9
Philadelphia defeats Dallas, Dallas goes to 5-9
Houston defeats Chicago, Chicago goes to 5-9
New Orleans defeats Tampa Bay to go up 6-8, Tampa drops to 5-9

Week 16
Atlanta defeats New Orleans, NO is 6-9
Winner of Chicago vs Detroit goes up to 6-9, loser is 5-10(Say Detroit wins)
Cincy defeats New York Giants, they go to 5-10
Arizona defeats Seattle to go up 6-9
Washington defeats Dallas to go up 6-9, Dallas is 5-10
Tampa Bay defeats Carolina, TB goes up 6-9, the defending champs go to 6-9
Philadelhpia defeats STL, Rams go to 6-9

Week 17
Tennessee defeats Detroit, Detroit finishes 6-10
New Orleans defeats Carolina to go up 7-9, Carolina finishes 6-10.
Green Bay defeats Chicago, Chicago finishes 5-11
Washington defeats Minnesota to finish 7-9
NY Jets defeat STL, Rams finish 6-10
Arizona defeats Tampa Bay, they are 7-9, Tampa is 6-10
Doesn't matter who wins between (5-10)Dallas and (5-10)NY Giants

on edit-Let me show you how it breaks down
Final WC Spot
Washington 7-9 NFC 7-5
Arizona 7-9 NFC 6-6 (Head-to-head tiebreaker over New Orleans)
New Orleans 7-9 NFC 5-7

In this scenario New Orleans, Washington, Arizona are tied for the final spot at 7-9, Washington would get it because of a better Conference record. If Washington loses 1 game to either SF or Minnesota Arizona would get in for head-to-head advantage over New Orleans. So The 4-9 Teams in the NFC ARE STILL IN IT. :crazy:
