Some of you may have already figured this out, but the division is basically going to be decided Week 16 when the Skins and Eagles play. The Cowboys are all but mathematically eliminated, and even if the Giants win tonight, a lot would need to go right because of tiebreakers for them to have a shot.
Interestingly enough, if you assume the Giants will lose to the Panthers (I know, I know, never assume), then nothing the Skins or Eagles do this week matters, except in overall record. Due to the way certain tiebreaks have shaken out, Washington can't catch Philly in some areas, and the game against the Cardinals, for tiebreak purposes, is one of Philly's most meaningless games of the year.
I can elaborate if anyone is interested, let me know. If I only get told to report to the wall, I'll let it drop.
