Outside of playing games against the Panthers, Saints haven't looked to hot either. 

Can’t be stated enough.  They HATE us more than we hate them, and have certainly played by far their best football against us, but they’re still not a great football team.

Going off your Saints Falcons tie (or if the Falcons win), if GB beats Minn and Tennessee beats LA next week, Carolina is the 2 seed going into week 17. Sounds like a whole lot of miracles need to happen, but I can dream I guess

The annoying thing about they way it is...is that we look to be playing an NFCS opponent in the playoffs regardless....just kind of annoying as those games aren't like usual where we would be playing the Falcons who we beat twice or the Saints who beat us twice....

just need a rams loss and a vikings loss. Rams are going on the road for an east coast 1 o clock game against a desperate Titans team looking to make the playoff, then they play Jimmy G and the niners at "Home"(there will be more 49er fans there). Meanwhile the vikings are playing division opponents. We could easily head into ATL with the two seed in reach, and on the oppiste side of the coin, an ATL loss would mean we pack it up and try again next week in the playoffs more than likely.

I am resigned to the fact that saints win the division. They've been the best team all year. Unless they choke it away, then we'll take it

But not the failcons. I want saints to beat the falcons, then we slam shut the playoff door on those frauds in the season finale.

We then settle a score with the saints in the playoffs

We will

We got to if we somehow choke to the bucs. There is a very thin line between the #2 seed and missing the playoffs.

Not if you know football.

When you watch interviews from retired players they always hate playing a divisional opponent 3 times in a season. I've seen Strahan among others say this and it makes sense. We are saying the Saints can't beat us 3 times yet if we play ATL that means we beaten them twice....so that would then apply to us as well. 

Don't like it

Screw it...there’s no one I would rather send home packing than the Falcons and Saints.

Best case scenario is we win easy and the falcons win in a brutal slugfest.  I don't want injuries, but the more banged up the falcons are, the better.

I dont think the Atlanta I just saw can beat NO at their place.  Just dont.

Probably not, but the Saints didn't exactly tear it up this week.  They struggled at home for 3 qtrs against a Jets team that has been terrible on the road this year.  You never know what might happen.

@thomas96

thats if we win against the Bucs and lose to the Falcons. Falcons win against the Saints and the Saints beat the Bucs.

I've pretty much accepted the fact that we're going to play Saints for a 3rd time

 

Looking at Eagles, Vikings, and Rams schedules, 1-2 is locked. Rams have to play at Titans who's fighting for playoffs and 49ers who is all of a sudden winning, but it's home. Saints lost to Vikings and Rams. So either Saints and Rams switch and we at 5 go to Rams at 4 or we go to Saints at 4. 

I just don't see Atlanta sweeping Saints. I had a dream we won out and Saints didn't, so we'll see.
