NO vs DAL Winner=playoffs, and why this game is so big (1 Viewer)

[guidry23]

looking at this game in the big picture people would say that it is not a must win game for the saints

WHY THIS GAME IS BIG
The winner of the Sunday Night matchup would finish no worse than 9-7, and that team will be a shoe in for at least a wildcard berth

The Winner gets playoff spot, and a playoff spot already clinched with 3 games to go would be great

The winner of this game has a chance to be the #2 seed in the playoffs, which would grant that team a first round bye

A win here for the Saints would put them closer to locking up the Division and keep them at least 2 games ahead of Carolina if they win their game, and 3 games up if the Panthers lose to the Giants

It is more important sunday that the Panthers lose, than the Saints Win
If We lose this game, and Carolina loses theirs, we still stay 2 games up on them, and if they win and we lose we will still remain 1 game ahead in the division

I am hoping that Carolina loses, and the Saints battle their way to victory and take a 3 game lead over the Panthers in the Division, with three games left,

so then 2 saints Victories and 2 panthers loses lock up the division before the New Year's Bash

9-4 looks much much better than 8-5

GO SAINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
