The path to Super Bowl 52 might run through Charlotte

EDITED

Our only chance to host a playoff game is if Atlanta wins out. If they win next week and we win against the Saints (a tall order to be sure), we play the Vikings and they play Philly. If we both win, the NFC Championship runs through Charlotte.

Beating the Saints is our priority, of course, and if we can't beat them once in three games that's pretty bad. If we beat them, we play a decimated Philadelphia team.

What about the other bracket? It's Atlanta at LA, then the winner of that against a good Minnesota team.

If Atlanta wins both of those games, the NFC Championship game is back in Charlotte. A revenge match to end all revenge matches. I think we can do it.

We play the Vikings if the Falcons win.  And if the Falcons don't win, then it would be impossible for a playoff game to be played in Charlotte.

So yeah.

Eh, I see very little chance Atlanta makes it past either let alone both. They could barely outmuscle our putrid offense at home. The Rams are going to destroy the Falcons defense.

Falcons defense has been top 10 this year.   Rams offense destroying the Falcons defense is not a given. Nobody on the Rams has any playoff experience either.

Less worried about our defense (which has been good this season) than our misfiring offense (banged up interior OL in particular) against Aaron Donald and friends. Matt Ryan is gonna need some IcyHot.

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
