Carolina can get 2 seed

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; We're definitely not the same team that started 0-2. Since then so many things about the Saints are totally different including defensive backfield, players shuffled on defensive and offensive line, and offensive playcall in general. The playcall was full of ...

Re: Carolina can get 2 seed

We're definitely not the same team that started 0-2. Since then so many things about the Saints are totally different including defensive backfield, players shuffled on defensive and offensive line, and offensive playcall in general. The playcall was full of too much motion etc.

I think we've done just about as good as it gets as far as results compared to injury on both sides of the ball. I just want to win Sunday and everything else will have to fall in place. Glad to be in the postseason.

Um, Dude, I think you missed the rest of the question:
How can the Panthers get the #2 seed without the Saints losing?
The answer to that is they can't because a Saints win guarantees the Saints the division.

The Saints want to win the South. We want a home game next week. It's to our benefit to win. Therefore any scenario with the Panthers getting the #2 seed, which requires a Saints loss to do so, should not really be a topic for discussion.

Panthers will lose. How do I know this info? Because they suck. They have no WR's. Funchess is a joke. Dude has been in the NFL for years. Listen to him talk. Sounds like an idiot. Mctaffey also sucks. Can't run inside. Nothing more than a skat back. They are about to get blown out.

Unfortunately, that has not been the case. Only one team has really beaten them badly this year: the Saints. They have beaten both the Patriots and the Vikings. And the Chokers are likely for the second week in a row do what they do best: choke.

After analyzing the scenarios, I feel it's best to get the #3 seed and stay away from them for the time being.

I didn’t say anything about the Saints not losing. The Saints would have to lose in order for it to play out that way. Did you even read my two posts that said we would have to lose to Tampa?

Olsen is hurt. Funchess is hurt. Mctaffey can't run inside. Just a skatback. They are going to implode.

spkb25 posted the question, "How can the Panthers get the second seed if we aren't losing to bucs?" to which captainshawn answered, "They can't", which is absolutely correct.

That didn't refer to anything you said previously.

Here is the entire thread. SPKB25 asked the question that captainshawn answered and you countered. Your initial posts didn't factor into this particular discussion.

I'm with SPKB25: the Saints are not going to lose today so the point is moot.

Super Bowl Championships: New Orleans Saints:1, Carolina:0, Atlanta Chokers: STILL ZERO

Only Atlanta choked in an unchokable situation... Life is definitely good.
