A little more perspective

We played the Rams after their Bye week. They had 2 weeks to scheme for Brees et al. and still managed to lose. I don't care that they only had one win before playing, they are an NFL team with a Pro Bowl QB, a near PB RB and a solid defense.

given the number of injuries prior to and during the game, this was a hell of a win.

One more win clinches nearly a wild card berth and 2 wins clinch the
division (as long as the two wins are divisional games.)

If the focus is being healthy for the playoffs, then we should let all those wounded enough time to heal before the last three games of the season. Division champs gives us at least one home game. At the very worst, we'd have to play in a dome or semi dome in the next round, so HFA may not be as significant.
