I’ve said since the beginning of this series that I intended to publish the Wildcard Watch as a weekly series for as long as Washington has a reasonable chance of earning a playoff spot.
Well, when you take a 56-14 drubbing on Sunday Night Football, that should generally end any and all playoff talk.
I’ve also said weekly that a total of 9 losses on the season by Washington at any point would probably bring the series to an abrupt end. Surprisingly, there’s a very realistic possibility that the 7th seed in the NFC could go to an 8-9 team.
