Four scenarios this weekend

[Chaos]

So Atlanta and Saints go at it.......division rivalry and a game that is essentially win or go home for the year......what is the chance that both teams beat the crap out of each other physically and emotionally in that game.............then the next week both Atlanta and Saints have less in the tank and both lose the last week?

 

Anyone think about that? 

 

We can hope, right?

So, when the Saints win out and we don't go the playoffs my first thought is that damn tie with the Bengals. 

 

Somehow, I will always think that if not for that tie we would have went on to win the Superbowl.

The real thought should be that missed FG against the Falcons....that game was right there for the taking.

The bengals game , the atl game, to many instances to list - basically if we weren't coached by conservative pussies we would have at least one more win and be tied with the taints  - yes I know we have sucked all year and been blown out multiple times but still

[panfanman]

Who knows, Tampa with nothing to lose (but the #1 pick) could be the spoiler. A team in that position uses 4 downs as just another down and calls crazy, high risk high yield plays.

Tampa took NO to overtime in the dome this year. Even with all of their injuries and stuff, who knows what can happen?

[Ruff]

I'm betting that Tampa just wants the #1 pick at this point.

New Orleans controls their destiny

Atlanta controls their destiny

 

Carolina needs help

 

simple and plain as that

[Kuech the Sneak]

Ugh I hate that we have to rely on other teams, troublesome enough winning our own games lol

[FugginPoo]

will suck to win out and still not make playoffs yet screw draft position

[Ruff]

If we lose either of the next two, we're pretty much done.

[heelsrule1988]

Wow... I had no idea that the Saints would be totally out of it if we win and the Falcons beat them. If that happens, we might just get flexed by NBC... imagine the hilarity of that.

[Rise of The Hive]

The tie felt like a win at the time and now it will fug us over!

[heelsrule1988]

...but it could also be what saves us. If our game in Atlanta is winner-take-all, the half-game will push us past the Saints if we win (assuming they beat the Bucs as they should).
