Saints playoff paths
 
Saints of course beats Atlanta

Tampa loses

OR

(Green Bay loses @ Minnesota
AND
Minnesota loses @ Detroit
AND
Seattle loses @ Arizona)

OR

(Minnesota loses vs Green Bay
AND
Green Bay loses vs Chicago
AND
Seattle loses @ Arizona)

For those wondering, a 3 way tie means Atlanta wins the division.

Hard to tell what motivation Detroit has next week. They appear locked into the 3 seed. So best path is a Green Bay win tonight.

Why do I have a feeling some NFC game is finally going to end in a tie and cause a lot of chaos?

Bears would love nothing more than to ruin the Packers season, just like the Lions did last season.

I hate this time of year when we need other teams to lose when we should have taken care of business early in the year and decide our own fate. I physically hate this scenario!

This is what happens when you allow a substitute teacher to not have his team prepared and lose to backup QBs early in the season.

But yeah, let's bring on the Cowboys in post season and get absolutely molly mopped on national TV.

Maybe we’ll be a “Cinderella Story. Come from behind win.”

Both Chicago (won four of last five) and Arizona (win at Philly this past week) have realistic shots at winning this coming weekend.

At one time I’d remember looking thru similar calculations just happy there was an outside one in a million chance. Oh how times have changed

Same! Lol. We definitely got spoiled with Brees and Payton.

The large sweaty playoff bubble is an annual NFL tradition and claims a big handful of teams each year. Just gotta embrace the chaos.

It's more like Cinderfella with Jerry Lewis.

If I remember correctly, after a few pratfalls it ends with Fella and Princess Darling getting together and living happily ever after.
