If the Niners beat the Rams next week and SEA loses to Tampa Bay, it looks like this heading into Week 17:

Rams: 6-9
Hawks: 6-9
49ers 6-9:
Cards: Whatever

Then Week 17, we beat AZ, and either STL or SEA wins vs. one another, obviously. We'd be tied at 7-9....Do we own ALL the tiebreakers even though we split with SEA?

How's it work? We'd sweep STL and AZ, and split with SEA.

(Again, sorry I know this is overkill....Just need clarification)

IF we beat the Rams in week 16 and Seattle loses, we control our destiny in week 17...doesn't matter who wins the SEA-STL game as long as we beat Arizona.
