I think I have it right. If you don't count teams twice for common games when one team has 2 games and the other has 1 game against the common team, then Jax/Hou swap places due to AFC record

I know people are looking over their shoulders for the Vikings to sneak in, just because Favre's the kind of guy that'll play to the bitter end. But I very much doubt that the Vikes will jump the Saints, Eagles, and Bucs to get into the playoff picture. Vikings have to be done, right?
Anyone else getting a bug where threads from The 7 show up under The W? For some reason the Rams are showing up as the four seed in the NFC in this thread; someone need to let Guru know to get this fixed.
Damn Cardinal. I'm not looking forward to playing a 7-5 Colorado team in the Holiday Bowl. We played them in the 96 cotton bowl, 98 aloha bowl and the 01 fiesta bowl.
