If Wentz is out, which NFC team is clearly better than us besides the Saints?

[Sam Mills Fan]

Any? *Maybe* you could make a case for the Rams, but that's it.

Should we be thinking about another deep playoff run?

Saints with a healthy Lattimore and Kamara/Ingram are the only NFC team that worries me now.

This

but even as good as the Saints are- it’s really, really hard to beat a team three times in a year.

[shaka]

We beat the #1 seed in the NFC, played really closely with the #2 seed in the NFC and beat the #1/#2 seed in the AFC.  The Saints are our biggest obstacle.  

 

If we peak at the right time, we could win it all.  

[stirs]

Saints seem to have our number for some reason.

Vikings Oline is in shambles, not good

Wentz gone for Eagles, not good

Rams, are a good team

 

Right now, I'd say

Saints

Rams

Panthers

Falcons

Vikings

Eagles

Rams

They beat the saints.

Have a stout D

Solid Run attack, and athletic WRs

I actually think we're a closer matchup with the Saints than many of you may believe. It took us fumbling a punt, fumbling a punt attempt, Devin barely being out of bounds on an onside kick, a terrible missed neutral zone infraction, and a dumb penalty by peppers for the saints to sneak out a win against us. 

Also it's just flat out hard to beat a team three times in the same season. I really do think we will win if we play them again. If we can block Cam Jordan and find a band aid solution for Kamara I like our odds

Same here. We just don't match up well with them.. Especially if it's in the dome

[SpeedOFLight]

I’m going to go on a limb. I don’t think the saints aren’t clearly better than us. The nfc is wide open and any one can win it. From the 6th to the 1 seed. Should be exciting in the playoffs. I like our chances

We're a good match up with them if we can defend the run like we're capable of. Payton seemed like he forgot Kamara was on the team for a bit in the second quarter in that game

[therealmjl]

Also I tend to think Nick Foles will surprise with how well he ends up playing under Pederson. That’s not going to help their defense, but Foles isn’t going to just lay an egg.

[ncsfinest21]

Panthers are the only team that can beat the Panthers. I think we can beat any team but we must go out there and play mistake free football and create turnovers. When we create turnovers, we usually win. When we dont make turnovers we 90% of the time win.

[Sam Mills Fan]

I think we *could* beat the Saints and it's definitely hard to beat a team 3 times in one year, hasn't happened often in NFL history. However, it's also very hard to make the case that you're better than a team that swept you and beat you both times by double digits.

That's only the Saints though. The case can be made that we're better than all the rest.

[Camp Fodder]

Still the Vikings yes we won but to play them again in their dome

 would be a daunting task
