Which 11-win team is not going to the playoffs?
If we win and Arizona wins, then Arizona would be an 11 win team not going to the playoffs.

Saints win + CHI win + PHI win + ARZ win (5 seed @ CHI)
I think this is the most likely. I'd love to play Dallas again, but I just don't see them beating the Eagles.
And I'd hate to go to Chicago for the wild card game.

So ... at the moment ... no one.
And, I'm not worried about Arizona getting screwed.
I'm more worried about the Saints pulling a choke job that is impressive even by Saints standards.

Saints win + Car loss = 2 seed
We'd be the 3 seed then, right?

Still the two seed.
SF would then be the top seed, Seattle a wild card.

NO, top 4 seeds go to division winners, thats why we had a shot for either the 2 seed or the 5th or six. No teams from the same division will be in top 4 seeds. Thats also why teams like dallas and philly and chicago and green bay still have a chance. Also why Arizona can get left out at 11-5. Easiest path is win the division, then you are a lock for at least 1 home game

Long day at work, day after Christmas, I have lots of excuses for that one.
My bad, carry on.

Not a problem at all. Playoffs are a tight race right now. All sorts of things can change after this weekend.
Saints need to take care of business, and the Falcons need to win for Tony.
Call me crazy, but I think this has a good chance of happening.

I was doing a half-arse spot job looking at the playoff standings and counted Seattle as the 2 seed since they'll have a better record, not paying attention to the fact that they'll be a wildcard.

Would be wild if Seattle and New Orleans, the two teams projected to be 1 and 2 both ended up as Wild Cards. Would suck for us, but this is what makes the NFL great.

And the AFC is just as much of a cluster.
Excellent year. Week 17 and almost nothing has been decided yet.
