The Dallas Cowboys' victory over the Indianapolis Colts,
coupled with the Philadelphia Eagles loss to Washington Redskins
on Saturday, means the Seahawks are guaranteed a playoff place
regardless of the results in their final two regular season
games.
The Cowboys’ win clinched the NFC East title and the Seahawks
held the tiebreaker against the Eagles thanks to a 24-14 win in
Philadelphia earlier this month.
The Seahawks (10-4) can move into a tie at the top of the NFC
West with the Cardinals (11-3) if they beat Arizona on Sunday.
