The NFC is wide open. I think any team that makes the playoffs, except the 4 seed could be NFC Champs. And if I have it right, there are 4 teams that could get the 1 seed. 1. Atlanta wins next week, they have it. 2. New Orleans wins next week and Atlanta loses, they have it. 3. Chicago wins and Atlanta and New Orleans lose, they have it. 4. Philadelphia wins tonight and next week, and Atlanta, New Orleans, and Chicago lose they have it. Is that right? I think Atlanta will win next week as will New Orleans. I think Philadelphia wins their 2 games and I think Green Bay gets in as they'll beat the Bears. That makes the seedings: 1. Atlanta 2. Philadelphia 3. Chicago 4. Seattle/St. Louis 5. New Orleans 6. Green Bay
lol. So Saints need to beat Buccaneers at home, and the Falcons need to lose to the Panthers at home in order for the Saints to win the division. Meh... not gonna happen.
Bears will be watching tonight's game with a lot of interest . Since they already beat the Eagles , if the Eagles lose . Bears might not play all of their starters vs the Packers . Packers need to win next week vs the Bears , so Eagles might decide fate of many teams tonight with either a loss / win .
I see it shaking out like this http://espn.go.com/nfl/playoffs/mac...0102021~1~310102009~1~310102011~1~310102007~2 Deep down I'll be rooting for the Bears or the Cowboys to win next week, though, as I don't want the Eagles to get a bye... I want to see them play as many games as possible, just for selfish reasons... Vick is too much fun to watch to want to see him skip a game :grin:
It would be an epic upset if the Vikings beat the Eagles, I highly doubt it'll happen would be nice for my Bears but just don't see it happening.
It's the NFL... any thing can happen. If you think Carolina is going to just roll over for the falcons, think again. Saints last night gave a blue print on how to beat the Falcons defense when they get blitz happy. Even when they weren't blitzing Saints still laid out a blue print on both sides of the ball. Quick passes all night vs falcons= destroying their defense
Dude, it's the freaking Panthers... Jimmy Clausen... You could tell them every play you're going to run and play with 6 guys on defense and they'd still lose.
I love when people say so and so gave teams the blueprint to beat a certain team. First off we don't blitz heavy normally but that was the gameplan going into the game. Secondly The Saints offense was explosive they were bound to score a TD late in that game. The Saints only scored 17 not sure how they showed a blueprint to anything on our defense. The offense is why Atlanta lost last night not the defense.
Exactly. Both teams split not sure why the subject is Atlanta getting exposed. It's not like New Orleans won in a blowout.
if Bushrod didn't cause a false start we would beaten them by 2 scores. Don't have selective memory sir... cause that pass was a td.
And New Orleans have had much closer games with worse teams this year. The 49ers game was a close one if I remember. Most of the top games this year have all been Falcons games.
Man, this defense of the vikings just ate buttered popcorn or something. **** should have3 picks already. 2 straight drops by the d.
What's up with this game? Both teams seem out of it, the crowd isn't in it, hell I'm sitting here getting bored. Ugh!!!
