So, if the pats drop one (say Tampa Bay) and then drop to Miami and could lose the division.
Heck, if we're gonna lose, might as well get a better pick!
But, they'll probably make the playoffs... will host the first round game and anything is possible in NE in the winter.
The defense looked good yesterday, and Dillon back are both good keys for the playoffs... I still don't see them going far, but they should be able to make it to round #2.
Now, the NFL isn't a set bracket, whoever is the worst team each around plays the best team each round. My question is (cause I can't remember)...
Let's say: Indy & Cincy get byes.
Denver & NE host in round #1.
Denver hosts SD
NE hosts Jacksonville.
Now, if SD beats Denver & NE beats Jacksonville.
Who goes to Indy in round #2?
Would it be NE who has the worst record between SD and NE
or
Would it be SD who would be the lower seed #?
My thought is it would be SD that goes to Indy because they're the lower seed # and even though NE has a worse season record they would still be a Division champ where SD is a Wild Card...
anyone know the answer?
