Getty ImagesTen of the 12 postseason berths have been claimed. Two remain. Three, as a practical matter, are in contention for the final available spots, which come from the NFC North champion and the second wild card in the NFC.
The possible permutations are Packers and Washington (with wins by Green Bay and Washington), Packers and Lions (with a loss by Washington), and Lions and Washington (with wins by Detroit and Washington). The Buccaneers also are technically alive, but they need a variety of things to fall their way, including a tie in the Giants-Washington game.
So which teams will make it? That’s our PFT Live question of the day.
Answer it, comment, and then tune in for a show that includes visits from Falcons Pro Bowl linebacker Vic Beasley and Cowboys defensive end David Irving.
The name of the team is the Redskins. And although you didn’t want to write an article on the last court ruling out of embarrassment about your predictions, they will not lose their trademark.
REDSKINS!!!!!!
I wanted to vote for Packers and Redskins, but that option wasn’t there.
Good job listing who each of these teams plays…
WTF? Do you mean to tell me that the Vikings wouldn’t repeat as NFC Champs? I’ve been reading for the past 6 months that they are Superbowl bound.
Maybe they are as I am sure Houston will need some more ushers to help the fans find their seats.
A higher level of media professionalism would offer the Packers and REDSKINS.
I believe Washington is going to lose to the Giants leaving Green Bay as division winner beating the Lions and the Lions being the last wildcard team.
I’m rooting for the Redskins.
The Huskies may be in the NFL and College Football Playoffs!? Now that would be impressive.
Lions will get one of them. They have won their prior six home games. A chance for the division title for the first time in 23 years? Ford Field will be incredibly loud this Sunday!
Redskins!
will enjoy watching MVP Stafford (LOL) crash and burn once more…has been shot down more times than Snoopy was shot down by the Red Baron…
As a Lions fan, I’ll be on pins and needles till the end of the game Sunday. And yes, I’ll be pulling for the Lions even though Green Bay is playing very well.
When Stafford and Cousins dash the Slackers post season hopes, i will laugh and laugh and laugh….worst fan base in the nation and they deserve the next decade of losing seasons.
As long as the Pack can deal with Jim Bob’s Cooter everything should work out fine for them.
Skins will poop the bed

You again? You have never had any of your toothless predictions come true. Ever.
Maybe you should be following women’s volleyball.
Big unknown is how much the giants are really going to play to win. If giants come to play they will win.
What is the passing yards record in a single game? Stafford might break it against the joke of a defense called Green Bay. If not Stafford, Dak, Eli, Matty Ice or Russell….embarassment to the NFC North.

Embarrassing, would be to start 5-0, and not make the playoffs!!!

This is why no one can stand vikings fans. Bitter trolls.
It’s a privilege to watch these great 3 contending teams heroically battling down to the wire.
This is better football.
For better people.
I just wish Vikings fans would know their place:
3rd or worse in the division.
For a Long, LONG time.
Who is more bitter..Hillary is or the Viking fans?

To the chants of Go Pack Go, about early to mid 4th quarter. ; )

I think both the Packers and Lions get in with the Packers taking the North Division. In case you haven’t been paying attention, only Dak and Cousins beat the Pack by more than 1 point. The Packers soundly beat Eli, Stafford, and Russell.
