You cheer for Atlanta. Two wins and its locked.

If I want a revenge game, its 49ers.
If i want the easiest opponent its Chicago.

Reason #1: We match up well with atlanta and know them

Reason #2: Its in a dome in January

Reason #3: No way our guys lose 2 straight in atlanta, revenge factor will be a huge advantage for us

IMO, we'll get the 49ers....in the NFCCG

Theres nothing easy about playing at chicago in january

So.... weather only effects one team?

Chicago has dropped 3 of their last 4. Give me Chicago. Peppers is hurt, give me Chicago. Forte is not running well, give me Chicago.

You play the elements, i will play the team.

Well which team is used to playing in the elements and which team isnt? A quick search of our record under 40 degrees should clear this up.

My point is, the best scenario by far is us to play oppenent/location that we are familiar with and know. Its about stacking thigs in your favor come playoff time.

You cant stack this, it will be what it will be.

Ill be 6 feet under in Arlington before I even think about wanting a Falcons win in any game.

I'll add... Cold , frozen, snow = Running game! Means coaches cant abandon the running game. Its what we all want.

Our running game and Chivago with no Peppers and no Urlacker.

Best match for us.

If we get in the playoffs, I really don't care which NFC team we'd face (at this point).
