Saints need 4/4 for HFA
 
Saints overs Titans (we have a horrible historical record against them)

Saints over Panthers

Seahawks over Niners - probably

Vikings over Packers - maybe. Packers sure won’t lose to Detroit unless resting Rogers

I'd settle for the 2 seed right now

Seattle wins west, we own tie-breaker (we're minimum 2 seed)

OR

Vikes beat Pack (we'd be a game better, if we win out)

Bringing in a disgruntled fresh horse in Javorious Jenkins, a hurt Derrick Henry...not looking good for the Titans. They are however still in the playoff race and will show up with a purpose.

We’re going to be the #3 seed. The stupid loss to Atlanta cost us dearly. If I had to guess, I predict we’ll host the Vikings in the wild card round and then have to go to Lambeau.

Vikings got hit hard by injuries at RB ... we may need to let them have Murray back for a game LOL

Honestly you look at the body of work from GB and theres really not a lot to get excited about. If they win tomorrow I will be impressed. I think they're going to lose. I'll take a seattle win ok ver 49ers, but if not and we are the 2and seed and san fran the 1, I'll take that.

It doesn't work that way, the only two ways we get the 2 seek is if Seattle loses to Arizona and then beats the 49ers, or if the Vikes beat the Packs(or the Packs lose any game). Ironically, the game today didn't even matter if we would have lost to the Titans and GB would have lost to the Vikings, we still would have gotten the 2 seed. If Seattle just won the west we would not win the tie breaker over them, because it wouldn't be a tie breaker between us and Seattle.. it'd be a 3-way tie between us Seattle and GB and we'd be the odd team out. We get the 1 seed if GB loses and Seattle beats the 49ers.

Dak Prescott is awful. Not just his throws, but he cant read ****.

Seahawks are going to lose. So now we are a Vikings and saints win from at least the 2 seed

Here’s a real simple way to look at it:

Re: Saints need 4/4 for HFA
 
The Seahawks loss adds another scenario into getting a bye now.

Packers lose either game and we win gives us a bye as the 2 seed

Seattle beats 49ers and we win give us a bye as the 2 seed.

Both scenarios occurring simultaneously gives us the 1 seed(though both scenarios would have always given us the 1 seed, nothing has really changed in regards to the 1 seed). If Seattle would have beaten Arizona, the only way we could have gotten a bye is if the Packers lost(and we'd got the 1 seed if Seattle beat the 49ers). If Seattle would have beaten the 49ers and Arizona, and the Packers would have won out, the most we could have gotten was the 3 seed. The reason being is Seattle, Green Bay, and NO would have been in a 3 way tie. The only other way, which would have been highly unlikely is if the 49ers and Seattle tied next week. The Arizona victory over Seattle opened a lot of doors for us in terms of getting a bye.

Well the Seahawks aren’t beating the 49ers next week. We have to trust Kirk “0-8 in prime time” Cousins without Dalvin Cook to beat the Packers.

I'll bet that the Hawks do beat the Niners.

Worst case scenario for Niners now

Seahawks coming off embarrassing loss. Winning at home is the difference between wildcard and division title.

I can’t see Seattle losing that one

Seattle lost more than just the game today ...

RB Chris Carson, CJ Prosise and OT Dwayne Brown season's are over.

I'm all in on "Next Man Up", but those injuries will be difficult to overcome. Home field will be hard to obtain but at this point, I'll "settle" for a 1st round bye every day of the week.

Our guys need time to heal up.

Seahawks lost today.

Regardless of what happens between the Vikes/Packers on tomorrow night, Saints will be the #2 seed if we defeat the Panthers on next weekend... And we're not losing to the Panthers. Now if Russ can somehow ink out a W next week vs the Niners & GB lose tomorrow...Lagniappe. The Super Bowl goes through New Orleans & dome sweet dome :bng:. Concert time !

This 2019 Saints team can win anywhere though. They are mentally strong and well coached.

We need either the Vikings to beat packers to earn the number 2 or seattle to beat the 49ers. Absent either of those scenarios we are the number 3.

If both happen we are number 1.

I think the vikes win tonight.

I absolutely hate it when other teams have to lose for us to have a better spot in the playoffs. It reminds me of the Saints of old. I'd rather determine my own fate.

Well the thing that sucks is that 13-3 would usually get one of the top 2 seeds. These are one of those few years that the NFC is stacked as **** at the top, It is more of an anomaly season than anything.

Seahawks will be up for the game against the 49ers. If Atlanta can beat the 49ers the Seahawks can. They've already beaten them once.
