[Gregg]

This Vikings/Packers game is excellent. The 49ers need a bye so I've been pulling for the Vikings.

You will get your bye, the Packers suck!

Man is this game exciting. Their defense but Rodgers is playing like an MVP and I will never count him out.

Nelson played out of his mind this last series.

Is it too much to ask for a GB stop?

[JudeBaldo]

Adrian Peterson = Man

We must clone him in preparation for the inevitable alien invasion.

That Vikings-Packers game was excellent. AP is an absolute beast and, IMO, should be the MVP of the league.

I give the Vikings very little chance of winning next week at Lambeau, but it's nice to have a horse in the race come playoff time.

[Judge Jude]

Bears 1st team since 1996 Redskins to start 7-1 and miss playoffs, if I heard it right

Redskins can become 1st team since 1996 Jaguars to start 3-6 and make playoffs. Those Jags - coached by Tom Coughlin - lost a game, but Redskins have no such luxury tonight

Who makes the playoffs if Dallas beats Washington and they finish in a three way tie with the Giants?

The head to head matchups would all be split 1-1.
The Cowboys and Redskins would have 4-2 division records and Giants division record is 3-3.

Cowboys win based on better record vs common opponents.

Thanks!

Yup. Torn ACL, MCL, and Meniscus.

[Judge Jude]

'Common opponents' is ironic, because they only have 2 uncommon opponents.

The Giants made the mistake of winning both of those (as opposed to beating common opponents, which is better) - they crushed San Francisco and Green Bay while the Redskins went 1-1 and the Cowboys went 0-2 against lesser uncommon opponents.

But since the Giants were weaker in the division, that killed them even before that step. They were eliminated from the division race last week...

Vikings-Packers is the best of those four games. Glad to see it on Saturday night prime time.

[JudeBaldo]

Niners clinch the second seed and the Cowboys, Packers, and Giants lose on the same day. I call that a good day. :-)

Having three rookie QBs in the playoffs is pretty cool.

ETA: Steelers and Rapistberger not in the playoffs!
