rooting for Orton to go back to Denver and beat the snot out of the Broncos. Oh and hopefully Baltimore will lose to Cincy as well.
Bengals, please beat the Ravens so we can welcome you to Houston (and the Steelers can get the #2 seed). If the 49ers can't beat the Rams, they don't deserve #2 in the NFC. G-Men, please kick the 'Boys back to Dallas for the offseason. I will laugh my head off if the Colts blow the #1 pick by beating the Jags.
If the Texans, Raiders, and Broncos all lose, we'd get a fascinating 1st round playoff matchup between a pair of teams (Texans vs Broncos), both on 3 game losing streaks.
It's impossible for us to play DEN in the first round. Only teams we can play are TEN, CIN, NYJ or OAK.
Just expecting to be disappointed as usual as a Cowboys fan. Ho hum. Do we have a bag-over-head smiley face in this forum? I might need it after Sunday night.
I'm happy with any of our three potential first-round matchups (Texans, Raiders, Broncos), but gotta beat Baltimore first.

If Detroit wins and Atlanta Loses, they will be back in the Big Easy, next weekend. If Atlanta wins and Detroit loses, the Falcons will play the winner of Dallas and New York in Jerry World or the Meadowland. If Baltimore and Pittsburgh, both win out, the Steelers are headed a mile head to deal with Tebow-mania. If Baltimore loses and Pittsburgh wins, the Ravens go, instead. If Cincy wins, they play the Texans. If they lose, they lose out on a tiebreaker to both the Jets and Titans, if only one or both win. Overall conference record, since the teams haven't played on another. If all three lose, the Bengals make it, anyway Green Bay and New England are the nearly untouchable #1, but in New England's case, if they lose to Buffalo, and the Steelers defeat the Browns (or the Ravens defeat the Bengals). Baltimore or Pittsburgh captures the #1 seed, which only means that New England has to go to Baltimore or Pittsburgh in the title game, if either of those teams can win out.
I don't think the outcome of the Titans game affects the Bengals. For the Bengals to lose and still make it, they need a Jets loss and either the Raiders or Broncos to lose as well.
the playoffs starts on Sunday Night between the Cowboys vs Giants. because the team that lose is eliminated, and the team that wins advances.
