Yea that place will be hard to plan , I come to accept wild card is going to be the outcome , we ain't a elite defense anymore with all these injuries

We are getting the #5 seed and we travel to Dallas for the wild card game. Get over it guys. This team is not a #1 seed.

Here's another fun fact I saw they showed during the game 12 out of 20 #1 seeds in the past 10 years have made the Superbowl, meaning we don't get that #1 seed it's gonna be almost impossible to reach the Superbowl

Without injuries this team is better than Baltimore and its really not even close.

Injuries count and we are decimated. 1 and done in the playoffs. Another wasted year. I can't believe I actually got my hopes up....

The next tie breaker is strength of victory, which is the combined win/loss percentage of the teams they have beaten.

If we lose next week and Seattle beats Zona... which odds are they will. it wont matter what happens in week 17. Seattle holds the final tie breaker.

Why woyld Seattle hold the final tie breaker in that case?

It's looking like they will. It would come down to strength of schedule which is the 5th(?) Tie breaker. In that case add up the wins WAS and GB has vs the wins PHI and MIN have.

Playing like how they played infront of the faithful we don't want that home field advantage.

The teams they beat out of division which we didnt play have a better record than the teams we beat and they didnt play. We need GB and Washington to win they need Philly and Minn to win. They have the edge right now.

Not sure what there really is to "get over" there's still two games left before we know what seed we are. Could be #1 seed could be #6 seed for all we know.

No it's not.

We lost the tiebreaker to the Vikings by losing this game. If we win this and lost next week, we have the tiebreaker vs the Vikings.

The #6 seed is now as likely as the #5 seed

You are forgetting our win vs. the Saints. Its GB, NO and Washington vs. Philly, Minn and ATL. We are more likely to win that tiebreaker as of today.

But we beat New Orleans. Supposedly ESPN's playoff machine has an issue with the common games tiebreaker.

I ran this scenario the other day where we both end up at 12-4. If GB, Minnesota and New Orleans also both end up 12-4, then we still get the #1 seed.

Where it gets close is how the Eagles, Falcons and Redskins play. Basically I ran who was most likely favored in the remaining games and the teams the Niners beat totaled 90 wins vs something like 87 for the Seahawks.

That's not my understanding of how it works. I believe it's final standings of these teams not if you beat them or not. In which case NO and ATL are not a factor because they are common opponents.
