Lets assume the giants win, are they definately in for the wildcard? But if they lose, is there still a chance of making it?

New York Giants (7-8) – Currenly hold the tiebreaker for the final wild-card spot based on a better strength of victory (46-59) than the Packers (33-72). Giants and Packers have better conference record (6-5) than Panthers (5-6), Rams (5-6) and Falcons (5-6).
Can clinch playoff berth with win and clinching strength of victory tiebreaker over Packers; or win and Packers loss or tie; or tie and Packers loss or tie and Rams loss or tie and Falcons loss or tie and Panthers loss or tie; or Packers loss and Rams loss and Falcons loss and Panthers loss.
Giants clinch strength of victory tiebreaker over Packers with: Lions loss; or Vikings loss; or any two of the following results: Cardinals loss, Dolphins loss, 49ers loss, Panthers win, Texans win, Buccaneers win. If Giants and Packers finish tied in strength of victory, then tie will be decided by best strength of schedule.or subsequent tiebreakers.
Here are the first-round matchups in the NFC if the playoffs started today:
N.Y. Giants at Philadelphia; Dallas at Seattle
First-round byes: Chicago and New Orleans

Yeah...don't be bothered despite the fact that the Giants are playing like lazy bums this 12 months yet they nonetheless make the playoffs. All they could do is beat the Panthers and the Redskins. The Skins haven't any offensive line, and the Panthers are a a million dimensional group( they bypass to Steve Smith on virtually each and every bypass play) . The Vikings have greater effective gamers yet they could be resting and via then Dallas has already lost 2(Eagles or Redskins and the Saints) the Giants own the tie -breakers so regardless of if the season finishes and Dallas and the G-men have a similar checklist then the G-men are nonetheless playoff certain. Have a splash faith( and howdy Eli hater hop off , so what if he have been given fortunate triumphing includes success,skill, and coronary heart.

If the Giants win and Green Bay loses against the Bears, then they make the last playoff spot at 8-8.
If they lose, then YES, they still can make the playoffs, but they need a combo of 4 different games to go their way to get in at
7-9.

If the Giants win, they are in the playoffs, however, if they lose, they would also need every other currently 7-8 team to lose Week 17 - Green Bay, Carolina, Atlanta, and St. Louis - to still make it. While Green Bay (vs. Chicago), Carolina (vs. New Orleans), and Atlanta (vs. Philadelphia) are all playing against playoff teams, St. Louis will play (and defeat) the lowly Minnesota Vikings. So in other words, you need the Giants to win in order to make the playoffs.

Well if they win they are almost certaintly in because Green Bay needs about 8 games to go their way so dat they win the strength of victory tie-breaker. If they lose and the other 7-8 teams lose then the Giants are still in lol.

THE GIANTS DESERVE TO BE IN THE PLAYOFFS, HOWEVER WE ALL KNOW THAT THIS IS NOT A HIGH PROBABILITY CONSIDERING ELI MANNING HAS BEEN CHOKING BIG TIME..
I LIKE PEYTON AND ELI, THEIR DAD WAS ALSO A GOOD QUARTERBACK. THEY ARE JUST NOT DOING SO GOOD THIS YEAR.
THE GIANTS ARE ALREADY IN THE WILDCARD WITH DALLAS AND IF THEY LOSE THE WILDCARD THEN THEY ARE OUT!

If the Giants win then they are in (due to the tiebreak rules they would go in over Green Bay)
If the Giants were to lose and Green Bay were to lost then the Giants would win the wild card
If the Giants tie and Green Bay lose/tie, St. Louis lose/tie, Atlanta lose/tie and Carolina lose/tie the Giants would win the wild card
If Green Bay, St. Louis, Atlanta, and Carolina lose then the Giants are in

They SUCK. They have no right to make the playoffs and if they do it will be a total disgrace to the NFL.
