18-1?

Well this will be the Falcons Superbowl. We win by 13.

The Eagles at home... Win by 18.
Dallas on Prime Time... Win by 20.
Steelers in the Dome... Hardest game... Win by 6.

Panthers fill out the season and may be the reason we go 15-1 we could have to beat them twice to win the division or win home field advantage.

Most of the Drew/Sean era it was a given that we needed homefield through out to get a SB. A lot of people felt this way, I know I did. I don't think that applies to this team, this season. This team travels well.

I've been hearing for the last few weeks how if the Saints Rams game was played in LA we'd lose. I'm not entirely sold on that, and I actually think we are just as good on the road as we are at home. This team is built to go into other teams stadiums and pick them apart.

Let's just try and stay out of Chicago and the other frozen tundra cities and we'll be okay.

Amen to this. I attended the 2006 NFC Championship game in Chicago. It was brutal.

Hot take ...

The Lambs will stumble and lose to the Chiefs and Bears. That run D is still bad. You aren't beating anyone in the playoffs if you can't stop a run game.

I'm not sold on the Bears beating them, but I concede they may. I do think KC is about to hang a 40 burger on 'em Monday night.

My reasoning on the Bears in this one ... 12/9 is the date. I've been to a game at Soldier field in December many moons ago. Brutal conditions, I mean the weather is so unkind there. Teams will be limited on throwing anything with the wind. Chicago is very stout (#3 run, #1 in takeaways) on the defensive front. I'll take a good defense over a good offense in those type of conditions.

And yes, I do agree with you on KC.
