Saints - Panthers 3

arsaint · 12-24-2017, 04:04 PM

It's about set - a 80% plus chance of a 3rd Panthers - Saints for 2017 in the postseason.

Only thing really left to decide is who's the home team (division winner).

Thoughts on facing Scam a 3rd time???

I definitely don’t want to play a division team we already beat twice in the same year.

Agree. It's tough to beat anyone 3 times in 1 season. Not say it can't be done, just way higher degree of difficulty. It'd be completely awesome, though.

Its the one team I fear the most of all the NFC contenders.

Philly? No
Rams? No
Vikings? No
Panthers? Oh hell yes.

we won our first play off game ever doing just that - AND we played the Rams twice in a row beating "the greatest show on turf" three times that year. and now that i think about it - twice in a row. how often does that happen? bring it on!

My memory of this season and the facts are inconsistent. I was wrong. We lost to the rams in the last game of the season but still won the tie breaker for the division, and came back to beat them the next week. My apologies. I was wrong.

We don't have a bye.

It may not be over yet for the 3 seed. Jimmy Garoppolo.

If Carolina is winning, beat the bucs. If it looks like Atlanta is winning, then just let the bucs win. Because if the falcons win, we win, and then SF goes and upsets LA, then boy are we in for a tough rematch.
