If they lose to the Bears I could see that team starting to implode. You know there is already in fighting between the players.
They lose to the Bears, then it's going to be harder for Dallas to get into the playoffs, ironically.

Three of the 49er, Seattle, GB, and Chicago have strangleholds on the last three playoff spots.

Thanks to our f'ed up 1st half of 2025 defense, Philly can lose, heck they can lose twice.

So you're saying there's a chance?
I'll admit it is slim. But goddamn if the division gets close I could listen to Philly fans bitching 24/7. If that gets tight at all their fans will be in full meltdown down and tears.

Dallas just needs to beat the Lions. We do that and we may be favored in the rest of our games.

And people need to forget about tiebreakers this year because of the tie.

Losing to Carolina? Doesn't matter as far as a tiebreaker.

Losing to Detroit? Doesn't matter as far as a tiebreaker.

We can't be tied with anybody except Green Bay so if Detroit beats us and loses two more while we only lose one more, we end up ahead of them at 10-6-1 vs. 10-7.
A Green Bay collapse or pair of losses to Chicago would make this interesting, but I see them sweeping the Bears. They play the Bears twice, Broncos, Ravens, and Vikings. I think they go 3-2 if not 4-1 to win the North.

The three wildcards need to be San Francisco, Seattle, and Dallas, with Philly, GB, LA, and Tampa as division champs. For that to happen, we have to win tie-breakers with Carolina (6-6), Chicago (8-3), and Detroit.
Unless they all have a tie game between now and the rest of the season, there is no way we can tie them. If we finish with the same amount of wins, we would be ahead of them by virtue of our tie with the packers. We'd have the tie and one less loss.

For that matter just forget about Carolina. They aren't catching anyone.

Understood

It's only GB we have to worry about tieing, but the others have to fall off. Chicago is the problem. Assuming SF and Seattle are better, the Bears need to go 2-4 for us to have a shot at the playoffs with a 10-6-1 record.

With a loss to the Eagles and a couple against the Packers that would be 3 already...

Anyway, way too much talk about this. We just need to beat Detroit. We keep winning and control what we can control.

I want to see Philly get their ass raped. wildcard be damned. I want the division. Go big or go home.
Exactly.

Plus, I don't want GB to win that division, and Chicago is the only hope to beat them.

I would think the Bears would want the ball in Caleb's hands on 4th and 1, but what do I know. Ben Johnson is the supposed genius.

Also I know it's slim odds but if the Eagles lose to the Bears I think the Eagles could start to spiral a little seeing Dallas only a game and a half behind them. Or whatever it is. Would be kind of funny to see them crash and lose the NFC East.
With Washington twice and the Raiders, they are going to finish 3-3 at worst, meaning we'd have to win out to take the division. Vs the Bears, Chargers, and Bills, they are good enough to go 2-1, 5-1 overall and seal the division at 13-4.

Bears have the Packers x2, 49ers, and Lions left on the schedule.

Eagles have the Bills and Chargers left.

Guess we should be pulling for Chicago
