    I'll take anyone, except the pats, if the pats dont make the playoffs I will be a happy man, they are the only team that can beat us, not saying its a given, but of all the teams in the NFL, i feel the pats can beat us, not even the giants i feel can beat us,but im fucking terrified of those goddamn patriots

    A wild card team can be 14-2 and can only be a 5 seed.

    playoff seeding is as listed.

    NFL Tiebreaking Procedures

    The six postseason participants from each conference are seeded as follows:

    1. The division champion with the best record.
    2. The division champion with the second-best record.
    3. The division champion with the third-best record.
    4. The division champion with the fourth-best record.
    5. The Wild Card club with the best record.
    6. The Wild Card club with the second-best record.

    The following procedures will be used to break standings ties for postseason playoffs and to determine regular-season schedules.

    NOTE: Tie games count as one-half win and one-half loss for both clubs.

    NO WILD CARD TEAM CAN BE A 2 SEED

    technically, you can be 15-1 and be a 5 seed by losing the strength-of-victory tie-breaker to another 15-1 team in your own division. but i digress.

    football outsiders has us at 91.8% chance of making the playoffs, 47.5% chance of a bye and 13.3% chance of the #1 seed:

    I was really hoping the titans would unravel against the Lions, but oh well. that probably lowers our #1 seed potential by a hair.
