Not giving up on HFA = rooting for taints?

[tondi]

I will not be pulling for the Saints Monday night.

[CPF4LIFE]

Thought about this a while back, came to the conclusion just cant root for the Saints. Rather see them lose these last 5 games and spiral out completely.

Aiming No. 2 spot, rooting for the Shawks.

[Dex]

Do we root for the taints?

[Kevin Greene]

Fug it, fug the Aints.

 

I'm rooting against the Aints Monday Night, HFA be damned.

Let's make the Playoffs first, preferably beating the Aints twice and being NFC South Champs.

Then take care of our business week 2 of the Playoffs and then hope the Hawks are beaten that same weak.

No way I'm rooting for New Orleans Week 13.

The Mole can lick my balls.

This is ridiculous.  We need to win the division.  Not concerned with #1 seed at this point.  Home playoff game would be huge.  Lets go Seahawks! 

[Argus Plexus]

Want division title. Dont need #1 seed.

[Chaos]

I see the logic behind the OP, but the way I see it, I just want chinks in the saints' armor.  We have them next week, on a short week for them flying back from Seattle.  If they get decimated and demoralized on MNF, that would get us closer to getting control of this division.

 

You know we all want to see Drew Brees throw about three picks Monday night, and see if his neck can stretch another two feet.  We thrive on a Saints collapse, we don't benefit from them beating Seattle on the road.

 

Besides, if Seattle has a home loss coming their way, something they haven't experienced in quite awhile, the fugging Panthers will deliver it in January.

[Mother Grabber]

GTFO

[CPF4LIFE]

Yeah if there is any team that can go to Seattle and beat them its us, i truly believe that. I actually look forward to that challenge, Seattle is gonna be good for a long time so its not like that scenario is going anywhere anyway. Same thing with the Saints, go to NO and beat them on their own turf and make a statement.

[cptx]

Yeah there's no way in hell I can force myself into wanting the Saints to win.

 

As others have said, Carolina needs the bye after having such an early regular season week off. IMO the best case scenario at this point is for them to handle business and get the #2 seed, and have Seattle lose in the divisional round. That's best case.

 

 

I guess that worse case is folding and missing the playoffs, obviously, but any other scenario involves road games with no week off. This team has shown the ability to go out and win those tough away games though, so as long as they can score at least a wildcard then I will say that they have a legit shot.

 

[Marc Anthony]

What if the Seahawks and Saints end in a tie?

[Kuech the Sneak]

No, end of story

[Goondal]

It is more important we catch NO than Sea.  We could pass Seattle and still finish 5th if we do not win the division.
