Wait, I thought these polls were about the win/loss with the most playoff ramifications, not the most embarrassing loss.
Obviously Texans have the most embarrassing loss. But in terms of imperiling their chances to make the playoffs, it's actually not that bad. They play the Titans twice. They control their own destiny.
Biggest loser would be the Seahawks imo, as they are now most likely stuck with the first wildcard given that SF won their game.
You could also make a case for NO, who dropped from potentially being the #1 seed to losing their first-round bye, although I think GB drops a game and the Saints reclaim a bye.
I don't think it's that bad of a loss for Seattle
We play Carolina & Arizona the next 2 weeks
Home game week 17 vs SF
We beat SF already, if we win all 3 games we take the division
49ers have Falcons, Rams & Seahawks left
It will likely come down to whoever wins the game week 17 because Seattle will have the tie breaker
The loss really only hurt their shot badly at the #1 seed (Saints have tie-breaker on us)
