Regular season results would dictate the reverse. The Saints beat the Rams and lost to the Cowboys.

Of course, that would require cheering for the Cowboys, so... :poison:

Maybes Eagles will just continue their magic and end it tomorrow...

Everyone knows the Super Bowl will be Brady vs. Brees. Lots of money to be made by the NFL for that one.

I don’t think Pats are good enough to beat Chargers this year, and if they somehow do, not the Chiefs at Arrowhead.

I actually think we see a Saints-Chargers Super Bowl. 

Look for LA to host at least one championship game this year. If the chiefs win today I fully expect to see the rams beat the cowboys and the Eagles beat the saints tomorrow.  Allowing for the NFC championship to be played in LA  

If the colts win, the chargers will beat the pats and host the colts in LA. 

Then the saints will be walked to the title game to host the rams or cowboys. 

Too much money to be made by the NFL by propping up the LA market.

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
