If by chance week 17 turns out to insignificant, decisions should be made at that time about our health going forward. Ravens first...then the Falcons...then the Bucs...in that order.

We are not on the team. We are free to speculate, prognosticate, and celebrate as much as we like. In fact, I'm completely overlooking Baltimore all day today and for much of the rest of the week as I concentrate on the Falcons.

We are who ESPN built the playoffs machine for.

Splitting hairs...
-we are one up on Giants/Eagles and they play each other, actually giving us 2 game lead
-we are 2 up on GB and TB. GB plays Pats this week and we get Tampa @ home
-Giants and GB play each other week 16, giving us another game up on one
-first applicable tiebreaker is conference record. We are 8-2, NYG 6-2, GB 6-4.

to clarify, 2 of 3 CLINCHES, but likely one more win and we're in

It is definitely a harder road this year, after we win climbing from the probable wildcard, maybe we will get the respect on the way to our third straight superbowl !

I seriously doubt any posting on this board had anything to do with the Saints performances in those games. Nothing posted here regarding the possibly NFL playoff picture is going to have any influence on how things turn out. Speculating is one of the reasons people care enough to come here and give their opinions.

Oh I might whine if that happens (though I haven't about any of our losses yet this year). But I will blame it on players and coaches performances, not on anything someone posts on B&G.
