NFL 2016 Week 16 |OT| 8-8s & Heartbreak

McApoo horrible HC, should thank Spags for the wins..Jennings is slow and stops his feet a lot, yet he keeps him in there, PP has shown he can pick up the blitz and he's a better runner than slow poke Jennings...

So what has to happen for the Giants to miss the playoffs, other than them losing to both the Eagles and Redskins?


There's two scenarios where the Giants can't make it

Giants lose out ( @PHI , @WAS )
Atlanta wins out ( @CAR, NO )
Green Bay wins out ( MIN, @DET)
Tampa Bay wins out (@ NO, CAR )
Detroit must beat Dallas AND lose to Green Bay.

or

Giants lose out (@PHI, @WAS)
Detroit win out (@DAL, GB)
Tampa Bay wins out (@NO, CAR)
Atlanta loses against NO and beats CAR

This creates a 3 way NYG/DET/ATL tie with 2 spots available. 1st wild card is determined by DET/ATL Strength of Victory (which will be dependent on how their opponents do in the remaining games). If it goes to DET, DET and ATL are the wild cards. If it goes to ATL, ATL and NYG are wild cards.

Their rookie seasons when MM was healthy is similar and Wentz started only 30 games ever before starting in week 1. Let's see what year 2 brings
Yeah. People are ignoring the fact that Wentz is extremely inexperienced. He wasn't even the starter going into this season.
