Week 17 is our Super Bowl!

[DelhommesTheMan]

While we arent mathematically eliminated, most realistic posters on this board agree that we are not making the playoffs this year. So lets all hope the Saints stay undefeated into week 17 so that we can end the streak. What better way to go into the offseason than by beating the #1 team in the NFC?

[Mr. Scot]

We've faced the Saints in week 17 a few times. One year they knocked us out of the playoffs. Another year we knocked them out.

Not the same, granted, but season ending spoilers have happened between these teams before.

How about a Giants 2007 situation.

We back into the last Wild Card at 9-7, lose to the 16-0 Saints by a really close amount when no one gives us a shot then roar back to beat them in NFC Championship game on the way to winning the Super Bowl.

We can all wear 17-1 shirts at the Saints game next year along with our NFC Champions caps!

Hey no thought the Giants could do it!

That game will be a friggin blast if the Aints are Undefeated. Can't wait.

[Ccat]

we can't finish at 9-7 at the same time the Saints finish 16-0. That would require both teams to win out the rest of the season which isn't possible since they play each other in the last week of the season.

Losing to a 16-0 Saints team would put us at 8 losses.

[Argus Plexus]

It would be sweet if we won out, and made it into the lowest wild card spot. Play the Cardinals and beat em this time, play the eagles and beat em this time, play the saints again and beat em again, then go to super bowl and win.

Think about that. Go from hopeless at 5-7, to winning the super bowl.

Practically impossible, I know, but it's mathematically possible.

[CLTPanther]

I really don't think the Saints will play all their starters the whole game. If they have home field wrapped up by then, maybe he plays them 1 quarter, but I highly doubt he risks an injury to Brees just to tie NE's 16-0 record.

Would love to see a win against NO, but that would be more leverage for Fox to keep his job for next year.
