Does This Team Really Have What It Takes to Make a Playoff Run?

I would hate to play the Saints more than any of the teams in the playoffs

Lets just go into the playoffs healthy.  The 2010 Packers ,09 Cards, 07 and 2011 Giants were not even favorites to even win their wild card games i believe

I dont think no one gave the 03 Panthers a chance to make it to the Super Bowl

Facts.

St. Louis had won 17 straight home games.  The Eagles were in their 3rd consecutive NFCCG.  

Oh, and we played Dallas in the WCG.  Guess who the media liked?

Panthers play to the competition, and the rest of the season will be good competition.

it ain't pretty but they are getting the job done.

it's cardiac cat football. we've been seeing this from them going back to jake @ QB. i'm just going to sit back and enjoy the coronary they give me every week until the season is over whenever it is and then feel good about what the team is going to look like next year.

This team has shown that they'll either shorten our lifespan by years with victories or disappoint us with a bad loss. Given that we'll likely face the Saints in the playoffs, the odds aren't great.

Then again, a certain team in the 2003 playoffs managed to pull an epic upset against a formidable offensive team in their dome after six quarters of endless heart attack moments.

I think this like Chicago was just playing down to the competition. The team has shown up against the big boys except for the 5-6 swing plays that through both Saints games.

the team will rebound to playoff form next week again Atlanta.

This....  We have played well against the top tier teams we have played this year.  Minus the Aints.  If we get by the Saints than we could make a serious push at a deep run.

I think there is a good book on the Rams and Philly is clearly not the same without Wentz.  Though I will admit  Nick Foles looked pretty good as Wentz's backup.

This is why the Falcon's game needs to be ALL IN and play like this is the first round of the playoffs.  Going into the playoffs on a L is not good.

The odds are very low that we'll be able to beat a full strength Saints team imo. But the injury bug can strike the Saints and level the playing field. The key is that we're in the playoffs. The Saints have another game to play and who knows which player(s) might go down. Another thing is that we've had a good long look at the Saints twice, and although our coaching staff isn't that bright even they will have come up with a plan by now that might catch the Saints off guard.

Could it be the Coach ??

It's most certainly not that.

I feel like all of our potential match ups in the NFC are good for us except for the Saints. Unfortunately I think if we play them we will be 1 and done.
