2 races before the playoffs.
God I hope MTJ gets something from JGR to win one of these last two to get himself into the playoffs.

2 races before the playoffs. God I hope MTJ gets something from JGR to win one of these last two to get himself into the playoffs. I think this week at the Glen,is gonna be his best chance. Daytona is just a flip of the coin who's gonna win that but as long as there isn't a new winner he still has a decent chance to get in on points if Blaney f***s up. Its unbelievable that two guys in the top 5 in points could miss the playoffs. I would've bet anything that those two would've made the playoffs and now its a 50/50 chance both will miss them.

They're both having a decent points season but with the emphasis on winning, one or both could miss just based off wins. Crazy that neither has a win yet.

Especially Truex,Blaney has never been the type to win a bunch of races and Ford hasn't been looking the best this year until lately. They kinda turned it around withinthe last month but Martin has always been good for at least 3 or 4 a year since his break out year. I think it just shows how competitive Cup is right now,you already have 15 winners and besides the #12 or #19,I can name at least 5 more that wouldn't shock me in the least if they won one of these next two. Elliott would be my front runner for the championship but after him,I couldn't think of who I think is the biggest threat. Chastain looks incredible but I just can't see him getting the job done but he's proven me wrong time after time already.

Jesus only one to go for the cutoff.
MTJ has gotta break his winless spell on superspeedways to get in. He's not close enough to overtake Blaney on points now.
Here's hoping. Don't think he's missed the playoffs since this current format started and I believe he's only missed the Championship 4 only once.

If Blaney goes out early enough,he still might have a chance to get in that way but I'm thinking it's gonna take a win anyways. So many good drivers at tracks like this outside the chase picture(Wallace,Brad K,Almirola,Erik Jones,Stenhouse Jr,Buscher,McDowell,Austin Dillon). I think 7 of the 8 has a win at Daytona/Dega.

I'm not sure if this post was the catalyst, but Blaney had a terrible day and I don't think Ty Gibbs has done well enough to fulfill the other requirements for Kurt Busch. Even with the medical waiver, I don't think Kurt is going to get in. If this race stops right now for the current weather red flag, MTJ is racing for a championship

But Kurt isn't gonna use his waiver anyways,I guess he still in bad shape. He made a statement earlier in the week that he wasn't using his wavier. If they don't go back green Austin and Truex gets the last two spots. I know I seen the Craftsman news during the Xfinity race the other night,I don't know when they made it official tho. So d*** close for Harvick getting his third win out the last four races if the race ends

I was wrong about the last 20 laps was gonna be fun but it was definitely interesting. That was a rough way to miss the playoffs for Martin.

How did he miss by 3 points. And probably still finished around 3rd or 4th in regular season points,this might be the strangest season I've ever seen

I liked Austin before today. Dillon variety.
He dumped Cindric to make sure MTJ didn't get in.
