I was playing around with the ESPN Playoff Machine and a couple of other scenario builders and came across something odd in the NFC.
Mother of all longshots, but if Chicago was to win tomorrow, and Green Bay was to tie Pittsburgh - and then Green Bay was to beat Chicago in their Week 17 matchup - Green Bay would win the NFCN with a 8-6-2 record over the Bears at 9-7. |

Well actually ties are figured into a record as .5 a win and .5 a loss, so say they end up 9-6-1, its essentially calculated as 9.5-6.5, so 8-6-2 would basically be 9-7, which would tie them with the Bears, and the Packers would win the head-to-head tiebreaker in that scenario.
