The Vikings are now 6-5 leaving Dallas in complete control of their wildcard seeding. Of course assuming Philly doesn’t fall enough to let us back in the race for a 1-4 seed, we are playing to keep that 5 seed which looks like a guaranteed date with the NFC South again
Eagles are likely, imo, to fall to the Chiefs tomorrow and the 9ers in 2 weeks. I see us both being 9-3 and playing for division lead in Dallas on December 10th (going to that game and can’t wait!). Only tricky part is that’s the end of the though stretch of their schedule and the beginning of ours. But the Bills suck, the Lions struggled mightily with the Chargers and Bears, and the Dolphins have yet to show up against a good team yet just like us. So I still can see us winning out.
The way I’ve been thinking about it is the SEA through DET stretch is full of good teams that have shown they’re beatable but if you don’t play your best they can punish you for it.
Unlike the 9ers where as long as they stay healthy you have to have your best efforts to have a chance against them.
