Re: Saints - Panthers 3

Win next week let "The Scam" come to the Dome and send him out a loser for another of his classless postgame pout's ... Another postseason beatdown for "The Scam".

Re: Saints - Panthers 3

I think they are the least threatening playoff team. I would be more concerned with playing ATL again. That said I would rather play the hawks if I had a choice.

Agree. As long as the Saints keep Scam in the pocket his completion rate drops and his picks increase. We now have DBs that can maintain coverage till the pressure collapses the pocket. It worked both games this year.

Key will be whether Carolina’s D can figure out how to stop us.

I got to see the Saints here in Atlanta because the Carolina/Chicago game was crossflexed this season for example.

Bottom line is exactly for the reasons that you were outlining, the games with affect each other in terms of the playoffs are played at the same time. Since the Saints, Kitties, Chokers, Lambs, and Seachickens games all influence each other, all games involving them have been grouped at 4:25 ET.

SFiAH

Well he should have been more clear. I knew that the games would be at 4:25 unless one was a SNF. That was that way in 2013 when we last went to the playoffs. He made me think it was SNF. Yet I read nothing about it moving to SNF so I was not sure where he got any information from.

Atlanta has the better QB and WR, that's for sure, but we'll beat whomever is unlucky enough to draw us.

:bng:

Re: Saints - Panthers 3

I'd rather play Carolina first in the playoffs

Atlanta's offense is more dangerous than the Panthers is, Atlanta's D plays better against our offense than the Panthers do.

Re: Saints - Panthers 3

Talks is Rams are going to start the back ups next week so if the 49ers can get the win we might nab 3rd seed. So that might mean Atlanta or Seattle. But then means the Vikings in the divisionals.

The 4th seed would likely be Panthers then Eagles.

Really not sure whats the best path there.

Anyway just win the division Sunday and let the chips fall as they may

Re: Saints - Panthers 3

Beating an opponent three times is pretty tough...

I'd like to get the Falcons at home in the Dome just to get our playoff record against them to 1-1...

Plus it'd be good to start the playoffs right with a win over our rivals...
