Gotta feeling those teams will meet in the SB.

Maybe Dak changes that this post season 🤷🏼.

Re: No Playoffs Again

The Chiefs winning it all would reassert my opinion that many of the other top QBs are just a bunch of Matt Ryan's which would be funny.

Although its nice to make fun of Josh Allen, I guess I do feel bad for Buffalo fans and it would be nice if they won.

The Browns winning with Flacco would be hilarious. Also Browns fans deserve it.

I view Lamar Jackson as a Matt Ryan like regular season wonder who won't stay healthy long term, and I still dont think other teams were wrong for not pursuing him even if he gets regular season MVP, and the Ravens already got their rings, so I would not want to see the Ravens win it all.

I view Dallas and Prescott similar to Lamar Jackson. Dallas gets enough attention and Prescott is an injury risk who chokes in the playoffs. I don't want them to win because I prefer my view of them to be right.

I don't think the Packers are capable of competing in the playoffs but Jordan Love winning the ring when Rodgers couldn't for 12 years would be absolutely hilarious because Rodgers is a jackass.

I like Hurts. He is an underdog and played well enough to win it all last year. I would not mind if the Eagles won it.

Likewise I see Purdy as an underdog and it would be cool for Mr. Irrelevant to win it all, although I kind of hate the city of San Francisco's sports team owners and feel they were *******s to not share a stadium with the Raiders when both other 2 team markets agreed to share.

Detroit's performance is a Cinderella story but I don't think they win a ring with Goff. I would rather they lose to prove me right. My view on Carr is we can never win with a guy like that unless we have some sort of 85 Bears or Ray Lewis Ravens Defense, even if the coaching is good, and I feel like Goff is Carr with better coaching. Goff winning a ring could mislead our organization into the concept that they can win a ring with Carr and just need to go 'all in.'

I don't know what to make of Miami. I don't trust Tua's health long term. I guess if he gets a ring before the inevitable, good for him.

I don't think Pittburgh is good enough but I don't mind if something crazy happens.

If the Texans win it sets up Stroud to be a legend. I guess thats good for the NFL's marketing but creates an obstacle for us for decades.

I don't think Tampa is good enough to win a playoff game. If they won it all it would create weird arguments that we could have, but its not going to happen.

The Rams could be a dark horse. If they win while rebuilding it shows what an idiot Loomis was going all-in when perhaps we could have done better while rebuilding. I see the Rams as a mid-tier team that would need everything to go right to win it all. I actually think the Rams have more of a chance than Detroit.

I was at the Rams Game on that Thursday we were supposed to win. They looked very strong, and they made us look weaker than we are.

The Cupcake Schedule Produced:

Three Division Winners: Detroit 12 -5, Tampa Bay 9 -8, & Houston 10-7
Two Wild Card Winners: L.A. Rams 10-7 & Green Bay Packers 9-8


Only the L.A Rams have been eliminated!

5 teams from this cupcake schedule "could" win the Super Bowl.

Over achieving teams with real head coaches.

Just imagine what the likes of Dallas, Chiefs, Eagles, Packers, Browns & Rams (again) are going to do to the Saints in 2024 .

And that's not even counting the divisional games. Atlanta will be better & the Bucs have been division champs 3 years and running .

Re: No Playoffs Again

Thank you Saints for another great season. You were in the hunt up till the very end. It was better than most of your seasons, but obviously not as good as others and you really should’ve made the playoffs. And if the team that showed up over the past couple of games had been there earlier in the season you would have. That second-half was incredible. If that team we’re going to the playoffs, we’d stand a chance.
