Now that the PLAYOFFS!?! question has been officially answered, starting to peek ahead and look at potential scenarios as last 3 weeks unfold:
Sitting in the #1 Seed, Keep in mind that this year ONLY the 1 seed gets the BYE and there is an extra wild card. So, the 6 remaining teams battle for 3 spots that first weekend then the 1 seed enters the picture.
Maybe HFA isnt that big of a deal this year but you can argue that the BYE is bigger(maybe/maybe not). Indoors with Rodgers and Tae might be deadly, especially with the liability of Pettines candy ass defense against a running team in bad weather.
So, currently we'd avoid the Saints in the first round and look to a possibly favorable matchup vs Washington FT, or possibly some revenge against Seattle, Tampa or Arizona
