I'd rather have lost yesterday and be able to look at this with options then to have lost in the playoffs again and sit here and read about other teams moving forward. I pray yesterday was a wake up call and it made our team that much harder and determined.

This season, when the Saints slip a little, they have always come fighting back. Wouldn't it be nice to go on a 5 game win streak here.

The only reason I did the analysis was because I saw a site that stated that Philly could win the #2 seed if they were in a 3 way tie with the Saints and Seattle. It didn't make sense. The article in this thread validates that (it didn't make sense).
