Next man up.
Too bad about Honey Badger. On the bright side, the birdies were able to gain on some short yardage situations, albeit against a team known for weakness defending those. That combined with their short punts is the glaring hole in their offense.
I am going with SD on THUR
and
WASH on Sat.
I missed the HOUS game .... best game of the week. gotta watch highlights.
IF PHILLY WINS OUT, THEY GET TIEBREAKER BASED ON DIV

28 to 24. Indy leads. Hous has to win SOV outright, not tie.
In an overwhelming disappointing season, still got to see Brees become 4th player in NFL history to surpass 60K yards passing. Congratulations Drew. HOF bound.

THE 3 WAY TIE:
ALL 3 TEAMS ARE 2-2 HEAD-TO-HEAD WITH THE OTHER 2

NYG 7-9, 3-3 div, 1-1 uncommon, 6-8 common
WASH 7-9, 2-4 div, 2-0 uncommon, 5-9 common
PHILLY TAKES THE 7-9 OVER NYG DUE TO BETTER COMMON GAMES RECORD
PHIL-4
OTHER AFC TIEBREAKERS
jax has tiebreakers over HOUS and INDY and 3-way too.
but if INDY 7th win is vs TN and loss to MIA, then INDY gets the 7-9 3-way tie.
JAX-3

it would be DENVER OVER CINN AND PATS
AND PATS OVER CINN
PATS vs. CINCY, clinched
PATS-4
CINCY VS PITT
PITT-5 ... Strength of Victory
DEN VS KC
KC-2 ... division record. clinched
I can remember, though just barely, when they were in St. Louis. Around this time way back in 1987(I was 5) I was watching a Christmas show and when that was over a Cardinal game came on.
other NFC tiebreakers
GB would have tiebreaker over AZ
head to head
AZ would have tiebreaker over CAR
