We cannot win the Division at 7-10.

It's easy math guys.

We cannot win the division at 7-10.  Think it through
Are you for real?

6-8 Jags lose their next 2. They then become 6-10.
7-7 tacks lose their next 2. They become 7-9.

Jags win week 18. Both teams 7-10 and Jags move on to the playoffs.

You sure?

If tacks lose out they are 7-10 and 3-3 divisionally

If Jags lose next two but beat tacks  they are 7-10 and 3-3 in the division
 
   but we'd have the tiebreaker by sweeping the tacks

I edited my posts!

You're both right.  I had it right with my original response to the OP.  

I just don't like thinking about these alternative options.

We should win out and then go on a run.  But you're right, I started over thinking it and getting stupid creative and then stupid stupid.  Almost to the point that I may as well be Stephen A Smith.

And for that....  

I apologize.

It's possible.  But I don't like having to deal with losses against the texans and tonight.

....but we also have to back on the 'shoes losing one of their three.

stop laughing.

I don't mind sneaking in ugly, but I have concerns about our defense facing a legit playoff contender.

at that point you're playing with house money anyhoo.

No. What you did was make a post trying to act like everyone else is stupid and you are so smart.
Honestly, at the end of the day... As I gain a clear head again...

The odds are that the winner of the division has 8 games. Yes, there is a opportuniity that 7-10 is the winner. But do we really want go back into the AFC South title in that manner?

I don't. But yea, it's possible...

Couldn't care less how the Jags win the division. Just win it.

Division tie break comes after head to head, so even if we had the same 7-10 record and the titans had a better division record, we would still win the division if our only other win was against the titans based on the first tie break which is head to head match up.

If we win the next 2 and the titans the titans' only other win was against us, we would be tied at 8-9. In that instance we would have an equal head to head record so it would go to the next tie break which is division record and the titans would have the better division record and would win the division based on that.
Just win one game at a time. It's not good to rely on another team to lose. It's in the jags hands. Its in the titans hands too.

Lets go jags!

If we win tonight, the colts will be officially eliminated from division title contention.

Nice, that would be a little bit of dessert after the main course! 

Haha
You know, even if we win the division at 7-10, we still get to hang the banner in the stadium. "2022 AFC South Champions"
Yea I don't particularly care how it happens, I just want that season finale to be a defacto playoff game. We can be 6-10 going into that game or 8-8. I dont care. Just want that game to matter and of course to win it. First year in a long time I haven't been able to make it down for a game. But if that game is for a trip to the playoffs, I'll figure out how to make it happen.
Just win it. Could be sneaky dangerous in the playoffs if we get in with the vast majority of our losses this season coming in the 4th quarter if not the final moments. This team can play with anyone.
For anyone thinking a 7 win team can’t make the playoffs just ask the Seahawks…

I think they beat the Saints in the playoffs. I don’t feel like looking it up but I know they made the playoffs.

Oh for sure baby!!! 

I don’t care what our record is…just win the division.
If the tacks lose all 3 and we lose the next 2 but beat the tacks and the clots win all 3 then they (the clots) would make the playoffs over us.

I'm more afriad of tittians without tannahill cause malik willies can run. they wil lhave double thearts of running. tannahill isn't a running qb first. willis can be,and he can throw from pocket. Plus there isn't any film of him playing in nfll yet.

first thing is first,jags need to beat jets to get to 7 wins.

There's film of him playing in the NFL and most of it is  film of a terribly raw rookie who needs at least two years to play at the NFL level.
