Giants playoff scenario

BALTIMORE -- The New York Giants somehow are still alive for a playoff spot -- barely.

Thanks to their 7-4 conference record, the Giants (8-7) still hold some tiebreakers but they'll need a lot of help to get in.

With Seattle's victory over the 49ers on Sunday night, the Giants can make the playoffs but here's what has to happen:

The Giants have to beat Philadelphia (4-11) at home and need a Dallas loss or tie, a Minnesota loss and a Chicago loss.

The Cowboys (8-7) play at Washington (9-6) with the NFC East at stake. The Vikings (9-6) host the Packers (11-4). And Chicago (9-6) is at Detroit (4-11).
