Lovie Smith

Though the Philadelphia Eagles shouldn’t need any extra motivation this weekend when it comes to playing the Packers, they may have picked up a little more motivation when it comes to playing the Bears in the divisional round.

If the Eagles can first beat the Packers.

Bears coach Lovie Smith said Wednesday that his team is preparing to face the Saints next weekend, which means that the Bears believe that the Saints will beat the Seahawks — and that the Packers wll beat the Eagles.

The Bears upended the Eagles in Chicago during the regular season. Actually, half of the Eagles’ six losses in 2010 game against teams from the NFC North, and they’ll have to go 2-0 against the top two teams in the division if they want to fulfill a destiny date between Mike Vick and his former team, the Falcons.

There seems to be a bunch of opportunities at redemption for the Saints this year. If we do get to play Chi, just imagine how good it would feel to avenge the losses we had there. They hit Joe Vitt with snowballs, and the signs about Katrina. I want that win real bad. I hope we get a shot at it.

It means that the Bears fear the Saints the most.

That NFC Championship loss to Chicago was just Payton out smarting himself. I think he learned his lesson.

What are they doing to "prep" for us? Is Cutler practicing getting thrown to the turf?

NO DOUBT. If I was him that's what I would be thinking but not saying. Unless he is really game planning for Philly and taking this shot at them is a way to give them a reason to play harder.

"Lovie Smith says Bears prepping for us."

You ain't got enough time Lovie!
You better hope Philly wins. You don't want any of this.

I see it as a dig against Phillly as well they are saying that GB is going to win. That is the only way New Orleans will travel to meet the Bears. Doesn't matter if we win against the Seahawks it is all up to the GB/Philly game.

E A G L E S .... I so want them to win just so the Saints can bounce the Failcants from the playoffs in round 2
