ok ok ok say we make the playoffs then what? get smacked? we all kno this team for whatever reason is not no way ready for a team playin really good like the packers or cowgirls.....we all knew just makin the playoffs is not enough

That boat sailed after the initial 4 loss streak. All chances for a bye and a home game in the divisional round went poof.

I'll play sunshiner today. The Saints pick themselves up and win the next three games. We beat Tampa in the process. Tampa still has a 3 game stretch where they play Washington, us, and Houston. The possibility of losing 2 of those games could happen, bringing us to a tie with them.
Unfortunately we're still a half game behind because of the division standing (at the time us 3-2, them 3-1). So we'd have to find another december loss for Tampa, preferably a division loss.

But say both Houston and Washington come through and we thoroughly beat TB at home. That 3 game losing streak puts them in our rear view.

Now on to the playoffs (sunshiny here remember). We'd be the third seed hosting a home wildcard game. Then we could hope against hope that we pull Dallas in the divisional round. Remember that it was less than a year ago they were soundly whupped by the Saints. It could happen.

Green bay falls to the Giants (5th seed) in Lambeau, and the NFC championship rolls into the Big Easy! Onto the Super Bowl!

I guess I'll wake up from this sunshiny dream now as it's stranger than fiction.
