Why Do We Always Close With The Saints?

Bullshit, this is the 8th straight year.

[CatMan72]

Yeah, it's boring to play the same team in the final week year after year... but this is the year that we're going to knock them out of playoff contention in the final game.

[heyyall]

Actually it's the 7th straight year.

Panthers have ended the season against New Orleans seven times in 18 seasons. #WTH #Panthers

We will lose our last game to the Saints this year while we are resting our starters for the playoffs.

[Kevin Greene]

I can think of no other team I would like to beat more week 17.

Good question, i'd like a different opponent to close out with every now and then. Don't know why the NFL schedules it that way.

We will lose our last game to the Saints this year while we are resting our starters for the playoffs.

It will basically be a talent evaluation of our depth for us.

[La Pantera]

Do Tampa and ATL face each other every year, week 17???

[Keep Pounding]

We ended the 2010 season vs the Flacons, 2007 vs Bucs, 2005 vs Flacons, 2003 vs Giants, the rest of the final games were against the Saints.

But Im still pissed we got to play them for the last game of the year again, kinda was hoping it was the Bucs, also what I don't like, is playing the whole AFC west second half of season, and 2 of them before week 17, kinda wish it was spread out a little....

I usually get Panthers tickets for Christmas. It's usually the Saints...

[EMSMedic79]

I'm just glad we play them early this season...With the suspensions that are going to be handed out, we will have the opportunity to return the favor from last season and run up the score.

[realstandman]

At least we are not opening with the cardinals.

Pretty good schedule IMO. Going to be some really exciting games and its going to be refreshing knowing we will have a chance to compete for a playoff spot next year.
