I hear ya-but food for thought-Minnesota's schedule is tough, take a look.  Hard to imagine they don't lose more and we're not dropping 3 anyway.  Not to mention I would much rather have them in the playoffs than the falcons(on general principle) or seahawks(more dangerous team). I hope Minnesota comes to BOA in January and gets steamrolled on the revenge tour and for that to happen they need to win.

I think I may rather have the Bucs or Falcons than Minnesota in the playoffs.  I think that they are more built to win in the playoffs than the other two are, namely because of Peterson.  Atlanta is not built for the playoffs at all and a rookie is not getting to the NFCCG.

I agree though on Seattle.  If I had to pick another game to care about I would root against them.  They are a shell of their former self, but they still know how to get it done in January.

The most important one to me though is absolutely Arizona losing.

Minnesota is definitely built to win in the playoffs..  Great running game and a good defense usually equal success in January. The Falcons are choke artists.. Let them make the playoffs and be one and done like usual

Let's play out this scenario. We're 14-0, the cardinals have lost a game so we are locked in to the one seed.

 

Tampa and Atlanta are fighting with Seattle and green bay for the wild cards spots. 

 

Would you prefer undefeated or eliminating bigger threats to us in the playoffs by taking some time off

Undefeated season still doesn't concern me.  Unless they start giving out rings for it.  There's only one goal in my mind..  Super Bowl or bust

I want 16-0

Now if we are 14-1 with everything locked up and Seattle needs us to beat Tampa to make the playoffs I cannot say I loss would upset me, although I would still start everybody and maybe play it like the third preseason game.

Freeman is a beast too when healthy and Peterson is a chronic fumbler in the big moments.

A tiny misnomer-since Minnesota has an awful OL, our front 7 would absolutely destroy them.  Matthew may be a pu$$y but facing him for the 3rd time or Theodore Bridgewater for the 1st?  I'd rather face a young toothpick Teddy.  JMO.  Go Panthers.

Sorry, but I literally go postal when a Panther fan says we want Seattle to win.  Again, SOS and SOV mean NOTHING to us because we swept the AFC and Minnesota and Arizona did not so our conference records will be different and we would lose the tiebreakers if it comes to that.

FUG SEATTLE!!!!!  I'd rather a division rival with a rookie QB gain experience and momentum by making the playoffs than those TURDS, so it's at least a little tempting to "cheer" for the Bucs for that reason alone.  Choosing between the Seahawks and Falcons to get in the playoffs is like choosing between AIDS and syphilis but even then, the Seahawks are a more dangerous team and need to kick the bucket.

I mean yeah fug Seattle but if them winning helps us, then let them win. Especially if them winning would push ATL or TB out of the wild card race.

This is blasphemy to some, but i'm pulling for ATL in every game except when they play us.  They are not a team that is a threat to us IMO and i'd rather see them in the wildcard spot than Seattle, who I think could be more of a danger to us in the playoffs.  ATL would lose in the WC game and then we could easily dispatch whatever crap NFCE or 2nd place NFCN team shows up in the divisional.

Completely agree.  The last thing i want is seattle with the 6th seed where we would definitely play them if they advance.

Obviously, we have proven we can beat them but they are a tough, physical team regardless of their record.  Give me an nfc east team or minnesota or atlanta in the divisional round please.
