We're in GOOD shape (1 Viewer)

This season epitomizes the phrase "Any Given Sunday."

If we play to our championship ability, we should be fine, but don't hate on Atlanta. They are putting in the necessary work to experience what we did last year. I hope not, only because I want it to be us. If not us, hell, keep in the NFC South family.
 
After adding in last years two #1 seeds that advanced to the Super Bowl, that makes 14 out of the last 20 teams (or 70%) that appeared in the Super Bowl held a bye in the first round. That's a pretty significant figure.

Put another way, if the Falcons beat the Bucs Sunday and assuming the Falcons win the remainder of their non-saints opponents in which they will be heavily favored thus winning them the division, the Saints odds of advancing to the Super Bowl with a Falcons win Sunday decreases roughly 40%. We need a Bucs win.

should be 10 out of 20 for 50% right? 18 teams on the list since 2000 of which 8 were #1 seeds, then add 2 more #1 seeds form last year.
