Beat Giants Bottomline

My brother joins the bye possibility debate:

It's exactly where the Raiders loss kills us.  That and the Vikings beating the Niners (G Lew!) and Ravens (missed fg by Ravens).  If 2 of those 3 go our way we are tied for the #2 seed RIGHT NOW!!

That is why I say (and Eagleseye does too) – make the playoffs and anything can happen.  There is not a big difference between Vikes and us (huge difference between Saints and us though).

Yes it's a longshot, but for us to do anything in playoffs we need to run the table.   It's what happened last year – we got hot and won a few games.  If we go 2-2 we ain't doing anything in playoffs (if we made it).  We go 3-1 and that puts us 6-1 in last 7 and very dangerous.

If Giants win this week they will likely go 5-1 in division and have tie-breaker over everyone in division.  AND have the easier schedule (won't have to play us or Cowboys).  This game is HUGE for Giants.  They win and they are clear favorites for division (considering Dallas' schedule).  Unbelievable!!!

In short what we need right now, this week – Beat Giants.  That's it.  Now bonus is Cowboys lose to Chargers and Vikings lose to Bengals.  Then we are 1 out with 3 to play.  All is moot if we don't beat Giants.  Must win or else we can't lose another game (again, we can make playoffs losing 2 games, but won't be hot and will do nothing in Playoffs at that point).

Lastly, need Ravens to win tonight
