1, 2, 3 or maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe 4 but 5? I have a hard time believing 4 NFC teams will have a better record than us - if all things are equal on the health side of things - at the end of the year.

Only one team has to have a better record than us to get the 5 seed

Well, if Seattle loses the division, then they can finish no better than #5. So, theoretically, they could be the second best in the NFL and still end up a #5 seed. I think the article is a prediction of playoff seeding as opposed to an outright ranking of teams.

Being the 5 seed doesn't mean that 4 teams from the conference had a better record. The first 4 seeds go to the division winners. Just means we had the second best record in the NFCW, which would likely be better than at least two of the other division winners.

I really have a problem with Redskins being ahead of the Seahawks in the rankings. The Redskins got beat in a high profile game (playoff) at their house by the Seahawks. Heck to boot, the Seahawks spotted them a 14 point lead too. Nah, the Redskins don't deserve to be ranked higher than the Seahawks.

Yeah that's right, where's my head. Knee-jerk reaction to see the Seahawks in 5th place on anybody's list. :)

Can you imagine if we knocked theRedskins out of the playoffs for their 4thCONSECUTIVE playoff game??

Their fans would have every reason to despise our franchise.

Aros, admit you really don't know football. You started the site purely for message board groupies (mods).

I can't see it. The goals will be clear to Wilson: beat the 49ers and secure home-field. That sounds really simplistic, but, Wilson just punishes goals like that. 3rd downs, red zones, keep drives alive, etc. Every goal he's been given, he killed, simply put.

I know football like I know porn.

I know it when I see it.

Bleacher report is a joke. Bias is everywhere these days. The coming season will show the truth.

A quick survey of the posts in this thread convinced me not to click the Bleach Report link.

As if I would anyway.

To steal a line from Pete this past season...
