This was essentially a three game swing, right?

Cards would have had a two game lead, plus tiebreaker. Now, we have the tiebreaker.

If you only look at it from a head to head perspective, yes absolutely.

Though right now it's a massive 4 way tie which each division currently having a one loss team... and NFC has two with Cards having the head to head to breaker over the Cardinals.

As far as tie breakers go, since the Saints beat us, then if another team beats the Saints that could be used as a tie breaker and Buccaneers at Saints this week.

Buccaneers lost to the Rams, so Packers would have to beat the Rams on Nov 28th to over turn that tie breaker, should the Saints lose to the Bucs.

I'm not able to go look into how to break the massive tie right now, as the schedule will do that... especially with Rams having to play the Cowboys, Cardinals and Packers... plus the Cowboys might be without their starting QB against the Vikings.

But Buccaneers and Cardinals do seem to have pretty easy schedule the rest of the way.

I thought so too but no one talked about it.

I just figured the dipshit forward progress rule ruined it. And I think that's a judgement ruling and I dislike their judging.

I couldn't help but think if GB still had a timeout they would have challenged it. Then again, if they had a time out they wouldn't have gotten the 5 yard delay of game penalty so they would have needed 5 time outs that half.
