Was the Saints win good or bad for the Panthers?

Rams lose a game and suddenly they aren't that good. 

Seems to be a recurring theme.

I really don't think they are the world beaters they had been built up as. Saints look for real though. Really don't want to get swept again this year... Haha

They still gotta play the Seahawks, who almost beat them earlier and will be fighting for their playoff lives, and Chiefs in the next 2 weeks.  That is gonna be a tough path.  It is not inconceivable that the Rams fall to 8-3, especially if their pass defense still sucks.  Chiefs will tear that up

The only way the Rams losing is good for us is if we go undefeated for the rest of the season and the Rams drop another game or two so we can get the 1 seed. 

Thats highly improbable though. More realistically its bad for us considering we stand a pretty high chance of losing to Steelers, at least 1 Saints game, and probably 1 other game (could be any of the other games where we have an off day). That puts us at 11-5 again and probably in the exact same or simular senario to last season as a WC team and having to go to the Saints yet again in that fuging dome in the playoffs .

I could see them lose the next 2.  It’s possible and the Bears and Eagles are no gimmes either.  Lots of football left.

I mean have you seen our opinions of our own team when we lose a game? Hell, even when we win most of the time.

If you want the one seed, it was good. 

If you are scared of the saints, it was bad. 

[Captain Obvious]

it's going to be hard for anybody to beat the saints in the Dome. Not impossible but I'd rather not have to go there in the playoffs. So yeah it was bad for us.

It really doesn't change anything except the Saints losing would have helped a bit in tie breakers and such. I still say we end up 13-3 and not win our division. Losing to Washington was the biggest loss of the season.

Saints won't win Hfa. The Rams will easily win every other game. 

[RumHam]

Bad WTF how would it be good?

[JARROD]

Every team lays an egg, loses a game they should win etc. I’m not writing the Rams off because they got Munsoned in the closing seconds in the Saints dome in the closing moments,..

they made that 4th down by the way,.. no on disputes that,.. and there were several other key penalties the Saints got or didn’t have thrown their way but should have,.

there were several blatant pass interference calls the Saints didn’t get called for an others.

so the Saints squeezed one out,.. a turd if you will.

im confident after watching we could beat either one of those 2 teams at our best.

[pantherclaw]

The rams aren't division opponents. So I'm alright with he Saints beating them. It doesn't change the fact that we still need to win our division.

I see what you are saying, but If you want the #1 seed you still gotta go through the saints. In my opinion they are the best team in the NFC. We need to get the monkey off our backs anyway and get a statement win against the saints
