Interesting question: If the Saints lock up the #2 seed...

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; ...early should they keep the pedal to the metal or should they ease up before going into the playoffs. In other threads I think we've come to a consensus that a Saints win coupled with a Dallas and Giants loss ...

Interesting question: If the Saints lock up the #2 seed...

...early should they keep the pedal to the metal or should they ease up before going into the playoffs.

In other threads I think we've come to a consensus that a Saints win coupled with a Dallas and Giants loss should secure the Saints not only the division, but the #2 NFC seed. One more Bears win secures them HFA. That could come this weekend too.

So presuming that Monday morning the NFC South champion Saints are locked in with bye in hand...

Then what?

Recent playoff history has shown that SB winning teams stayed white hot at the end of the season. Pittsburg won quite a few games (all elimination IIRC) at the end of last season. Same for the Pats before that.

We've also seen the flip side where teams like the Colts rested up the last two weeks of the regular season with not too promising results.

So what should the Saints do?

I'm going to see if I can write a poll question for this.

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

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