    Saints would only play the Panthers if they knock off the Eagles and Seahawks and would then travel to Charlotte/Green Bay/San Fran since they are the 6th seed.

    Think as it turned out and how badly the Saints have been on the road, they are in the worst possible situation. This was determined by the Cards/49ers result, Green Bay played no role in their seeding.

    I am of the opinion that aside from that Eagles/Saints game, every NFC playoff game is terribly difficult to pick. As a Panthers fan, I hate that, as a football fan, I love it. Don't get the same excited feel for the AFC playoffs this year as I think there are only two bonefide top shelf teams in the AFC playoffs right now and neither of them play next week.

    While the Colts don't ever LOOK like a legitimate team, they do have wins over Seattle, San Fran, Denver, and Kansas City this year. That's a damn impressive resume. 3 of those were before the loss of Reggie Wayne, but at the same time, their defense has really turned it up a notch recently, giving up a total of 20 points in the last 3 games (2 terrible teams, one playoff team).

    Obviously @DEN would be difficult, but given Manning's playoff history/bad luck and the issues on the Denver defense, you never know.

    I thought Rodgers stuffed Michelle Beadle? Or was that just a rumor?

    NFL re-seeds for each round.

    If the Packers and Saints win, Seahawks play the Packers and Panthers play the Saints.

    Saints are a sixth seed, Panthers are the two. As long as the #1 seed is still playing, there's no way a #2 seed plays the #6.

    Well, that clears that up. :grin: I never heard the rumor before, nor do I care whether he's gay or not, but when a NFL star QB is never seen with babes and also has a BFF constantly hanging off of him, he must have known people would talk. Nothing changes the fact that he's a QB God, and if fans in GB can't handle having a gay QB starting for their team, we'll happily take him here in Houston.

    they dont re-seed, the #1 seed (Seattle), plays the lowest winning seed, and the #2 seed (Carolina) plays the highest winning seed

    since Saints is the #6 seed, they cant play against Carolina until the NFC Championship.
