Big week coming up. No bye weeks so everyone's playing. Lots of teams to root for/against. Obviously we need a win against the Titans, but beyond that, the following games will help(to differing degrees of magnitude):

NYG over Dallas-This might sound wild but Dallas is NOT out of it in the playoff race. Their schedule is cake soft the rest of the way and there are not that crazy scenarios where we're in a winner gets the 7 seed loser goes home game against them in the finale. Giants are in full tank mode, but still, it'd be nice if they woke up for a week.

Miami over GB-We're not likely to catch GB for a higher Wild Card seed, but still its AFC over NFC so why not. On the flip side, a Miami loss improves our 3rd round pick, so we benefit either way.

LA Chargers over Atlanta-Atlanta is a big potential obstacle for us. In an ideal scenario they hit 8 total losses(1 has to be to us)to drastically increase our chances at the 7 seed with a 10-7 record. Tough spot with the Chargers going on the road on a short week against a team coming off a bye, but Harbaugh teams tend to be tough. Coin flip game.

Minnesota over Arizona-Minny is 9-2. They're gonna get a Wild Card spot guaranteed, so lets have them help us and knock down the Cards some more. The Cards are our ideal NFC West non division winner since we have direct tie breaker against them.

NY Jets over Seattle-Another AFC over NFC. Not super likely with the Jets on full on tank mode but it is a cross country trip and Jets are coming off a bye.

New Orleans over LA Rams-Again another NFC West team we wanna drop down a bit. Saints winning isn't a huge deal, they'd still only be 5-7 and we play them anyway, so we could give them an 8th loss and have the tiebreaker which would effectively ether them. Coin flip game with the Saints being hot with the new coach.

Carolina over Tampa-Carolina is our best friend these last few weeks. Tampa is getting healthy and heating up, but Carolina has been playing a lot better recently. Could be a trap spot. We absolutely need Tampa to lose one game, possibly two depending on how Atlanta finishes, if we wanna get in at 10-7. They also have the tiebreaker over us if they win out and finish at 11. This is the biggest priority(outside of our game obviously).

Baltimore over Philly-I guess there is still a slim chance we can win the division, and its AFC over NFC anyway so why not.

Buffalo over San Fran-AFC over NFC and knock the 9ers down some more. 9ers are kinda out of it anyway with their injuries and brutal schedule down the stretch.

tl:dr-Root against Atlanta, Tampa, and the NFC West.
