For those too lazy to look... Pitt plays at Dallas and Cincy is at Philly Thursday night.
Would need other help too though.
Hope for:
Jax over Miami
Seattle over Buffalo
Carolina over San Diego
Tennessee over Jets

I don't know how the tiebreakers stand, but if we ran the table I could see some of these other teams ending at worse than 8-8.
Miami: (5-8)
W vs. Jax
W vs. Buffalo
L vs. NE (7-9)
Buffalo:(5-8)
L vs. Seattle
L vs. Miami
W vs NYJ (6-10)
Jets: (6-7)
L vs. Titans
W vs. Chargers
L vs. Buffalo (7-9)
Chargers: (5-8)
L vs. Panthers
L vs. Jets
W vs. Raiders (6-10)
So it will really boil down to what the Steelers and Bengals do. And obviously, the Browns would need to win out. but in a perfect world, we can make the playoffs.
Steelers: (7-6)
L vs. Cowboys
W vs. Bengals
L vs. Browns (8-8)
Bengals: (7-6)
W vs. Eagles
L vs. Steelers
L vs. Ravens (8-8)
Browns: (5-8)
W vs. Redskins
W vs. Broncos
W vs. Steelers (8-8)
Well, it would take a miracle, and I don't even know if the above situation were to happen if we would make the playoffs. But if all of this did happen, it would make for a pretty fun last few weeks of football.

I hope RG3 plays so that Weeden can put on a clinic for him.

Ditchdigger I know you were a fan the last time we made the playoffs. IIRC we needed something like 6 games counting our game to go the right way week 17 to make it. It happened.

I remember that last week. It was unreal we actually made the playoffs that year. That being said, if we made it this year it would be an even bigger miracle.

It's a shame we didn't win a couple of those from earlier in the season, we'd be sitting pretty right now. |

Then Dennis Effing Dropcutt happened..... We had the steeleers beat in the playoffs. He was wide open ball hit him in the numbers anyone in this forum would of caught it. But the pro WR dropped it. Had he caught it we go to victory formation. He didn't and the steelers win.

We should have a tie breaker with San Diego so I'm not worried about them.

I like our chances, but come on now. RG3 leads the NFL in QB rating and YPA

The only clinic Weeden could put on is how to hold on to the ball too long or ignore the open receivers. |

I'm not seeing nearly as many open receivers as people seem to like to [inappropriate/removed] about.
