If so, then it DOES matter because if we had tied the game, and won in OT, then we WOULDN'T have needed the help most likely, just need to win and we're in.
No, we needed the team to lose AND we had to win to enter a tie breaker with the team in which we may have won.....actually, I believe it was week 16 and we needed that team to lose both games while we needed to win both. As soon as they won their game, we had no mathematical chance.
I just remember being totally depressed because the other game had ended first, and we had no shot, so as I thought the play was unbelievable, I still had this, "Who cares?" mentality....and then we missed the XP and I said, "figures."
