Who else to root for in Week 17

Bears to beat the Vikings

Bucs over Saints

49ers over Rams

If the Vikins, Saints and Rams lose while the Panthers win, the Panthers would win the NFC South and take the No. 2 seed.

It’s a long shot, I know, but it would be awesome to get a bye and play at home.

Would be an amazing outcome and that's the type of luck ATL or SEA in recent years have gotten... It's our turn now. Planning to go to a playoff game this year and would much prefer to fly to Charlotte than to New Orleans... And if we somehow got the Rams, no chance I'd be able to fly to LA.

root for the easiest road to the NFCCG..........

Might be easier with a road game.

I will root for bye and home field 100% but if we wind up 5 seed which is most likely, you are right that it wouldn't be that hard. Make it past the Aints or Rams and then we'd likely have the Eagles without Wentz next (assuming Seahawks/Falcons are one and done which is very likely). Big factor in our favor this year regardless of seeding is our playoff experience compared to the other 4 threats. We have a ton and none of those other teams have real playoff experience in the past 4 years or so.

If we do not think we match up well with the Saints, we root for the 49ers to win against the Rams. Why? Literally every scenario where the Rams win have us playing the Saints the week after. If the 49ers win, we could play any other team other than the Eagles, depending on what else happens. 

Also, the Rams can still clinch a first round bye and will not rest anyone.

Yeah we root for 49ers regardless. Every scenario is better for us if the Rams lose. Plus the Jimmy G hype machine will be quite entertaining if he hasn't lost going into next season.

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
