I don't give a flying rat's arse what the Falcons do as long as we go 13-3. Remember what happened the last time we had that regular season record?
CHAMPIONSHIP!!!

Falcons would thus win the division on the second tiebreaker (division record).
Here it is in a nutshell: If the Saints win the final regular season game against Carolina, they win the division...period. It doesn't matter if they lose to Minnesota and Atlanta both. Of course, they want the #2 seed, so they need to win out (I believe they will). Now if only the 49ers do their part, and lose at least one more game...! |

I think we take care of buisness at hand, time and time again and all will be fine.. We have the wildcard and thats all. Next up Minnisnowda. I want the Clowns to lose that would be great but I'm not counting on that, I also think San Fran has a up hill mountain to climb but it does no good if we don't take care of our buisness.
