I'm trying to pay attention to your logic. The Vikings did beat the Bears and finish 11-5 to capture the 5th seed.
Last season the Seahawks finished 11-5 and Rams finished 9-7 (look it up if you don't believe me).
If GZ doesn't miss the field goal with 11 seconds left the Rams sweep the Seahawks so both teams finish 10-6. Wouldn't the Rams get the 6th seed since head to head competition is the first tiebreaker?
Is there another team that would be the second wildcard team besides the Vikings?
Thanks ...... Forrest
