4 way tie at 1-2 in the NFC South (1 Viewer)

[St.Fury]

I already said it in a different thread but if we are hanging out hopes on OTHER TEAMS being bad or playing badly of losing games or anything, then we are going nowhere. You don't get anywhere as a team by depending on other teams for something. Especially not if you start doing that **** in week three...

The winner of tomorrow's game will own 1st place in the division via tie-breakers. That isn't "relying on other teams". We are two games in, three after tomorrow. We still control our own destiny.

If we win tomorrow and own 1st after two close losses and losing all of our Cbs, I will feel pretty good about this team this year, being as young as we are.

 

[St. Geezy]

They have now lost 2 conference games to our current 1.

Actually it's our division record that will put us in first if we win.

The next tie break is common opponents.

I think it would be, Saints in first place because:

vs Atlanta, Saints would have head to head and same record.

vs Carolina, Saints would have only one conference loss and Panthers would have two

vs Tampa, Saints and Tampa would both be 1-2, EACH have division wins against Atlanta, BUT Saints would have only one conference loss (NY), and Tampa would have two conference losses (Arizona and Los Angeles). So the tie breaker between them is Conference losses.

So with a win tomorrow, the Saints will be 1st in the division by virtue of tiebreakers.

Dammit, we'd better not mess this up!!

That is incorrect. Carolina lost to Denver (AFC) and Viking(NFC). We would be tied

But they have no division wins.

As long as we are tied in record, the rest would work itself out.

What's really sad is that this is the best week of saints football all year and the saints haven't even played yet!

TB won week 1 in Atlanta we would be tied for DR with TB. Our conference record is better though.

Correct, our division win would give us tiebreak over them kitty cats.
