If we want to be considered one of the best , you must beat one of the best. And if we can’t beat one of the best will this finally put the SB Hype surrounding this team to rest? It should!
A win tonight doesn’t even guarantee a clear path to winning division as we’ll still need help while we win out which isn’t very likely . And what could be more costly to finally reaching a championship game is a Cowboys win tonight clears a path for SF to take #1 seed.
Cowboys are ultimately probably looking at a WC seed with a win or loss tonight. Looks like the 5th seed is most likely up 3 games currently with 5 to play. More importantly we’d need to win at least 2 playoff games on the road to reach our 1st Championship appearance since 1995.
The good news is a loss tonight considering a win probably won’t win division for us could actually pave an easier road to a championship game appearance if Egirls remain #1 seed. Unless of course we’d rather go to SF for Divisional Round which our win tonight could pave the way for.
I know . We must root for our outside chance at winning division . But in the event of a loss we will be reduced to just another WC team and shouldn’t be considered a SB contender . And maybe we can play more from an underdog roll into the playoffs. Also worth noting is it’s difficult for divisional rivals to win 3 times in a season.
