Rabalais: Worst or first? Saints remain stuck in NFC South limbo

exiled · 11-25-2014, 04:50 PM

of course I was being flippant, but I do remember myself and others crying about having to go to Seattle. I have a hard time wanting myself to have it both ways.

My usual rule of thumb is if you are hovering around 500 at thanksgiving - yer in the hunt.

But this year - we are three games under and somehow still in it.

Feels more like hell to me.

Only way I can see to omit the division winners is if you abolish divisions and conferences and seed the top 16 teams no matter where they come from.

I can go along with higher record getting the home game. We should have had it in 2010 and whoever goes to the South champ should have had it in their place in 2014.

Don't worry - because of the South (ESPECIALLY if it is the Saints), Emperor Goodell will blow up the current system in the offseason...

I suspect he'll call for all playoff games to be in London, Toronto, Mexico City and Pyongyang...
