Seattle, tbh
Schedule remaining:
vs. ATL
@ NYG
@ ATL
vs. TB
Tampa and the second ATL game worries me. NYG can't close out a game to save their life, so I'm starting to feel a bit better about that game. I think we go 15-1 resting against TB at the end of the year, but that second ATL game really has me thinking.
Seattle, tbh
The best case scenario would be to lose a game and not worry about going undefeated. That way, your starters will get a double bye and have much less pressure on them in the playoffs, similar to the Saints 2009 SB season.
When the Saints got to 13-0, you could tell they were just mentally exhausted. Lose a game to regain focus and take the pressure off.

Yea, I really hope they face off with Arizona in the first round
ATL on the road is definitely the game the watch out for.
The Pats had a regular season winning record from 2006-2007 at 19, I'm pretty sure that's the record. The Panthers are at 16 the last two seasons, so they could break that record. Not that anyones pays much attention to that.
The thing that hurts them now as far as winning goes is they won't take any chances with anyone nicked up a bit. Those guys will now be sitting it out for the playoffs. Where if they had to have it they'd be sucking it up and out there,
lol OP... Panthers aren't going to punt a home game at the end if they're 15–1 and have a chance for perfect. Only if they already have a loss, they might do it (unless AZ is still at 2 losses)
that being said you still probably should have lost to the vikings, tbh, they were the better team that year but you got lucky with a ton of fluke fumbles, calls, and one bad throw in the end of regulation when they were on the edge of field goal range.
The Saints defense played exactly like they did all season; they gave up a ton of yards but they created turnovers. In the regular season they had 26 interceptions and 19 fumble recoveries, so it should be no surprise that they created turnovers in the NFC Championship game, especially considering they were playing against the QB with the most interceptions thrown in the history of the NFL with a history of throwing interceptions in critical moments. The game played out as expected. The teams were who they were. The Vikings even got their rematch to open the regular season with virtually the same rosters on both sides, and they lost again.
Both games were in katrinadome. If the game was in Minnesota they would have won.
Also, holy at 45 takeaways in one season. By comparison, the Cowboys this year have 7 takeaways with four games to play
I agree, TB.
I say the loss will be in the play offs....Panthers will win out.
Again, don't think they'll punt a home game if they're 15-0. If they're 14-1, maybe
Saints had the highest point differential in the league that season. They were the most dominant throughout that season. The Vikings were a bad matchup since their interior line could get penetration and affect a short Brees. The Saints may have played it's worse game of the season in that matchup but thankfully the defense came thru by forcing turnovers because otherwise Peyton would have gotten his second ring and that would have been a travesty. He would have shredded the Vikings secondary.Both games were in katrinadome. If the game was in Minnesota they would have won.

Anyway the Panthers health may do them in. I think the game at the Giants will be their toughest but they can easily win that game as well.
Rivera would be hanged if any of the 1st stringers got hurt in wk 16 especially Cam.
With the Tampon Bay loss today, they're likely to be playing for a draft pick by week 17, on the road, easy Panthers win
Most of those turnovers were unforced, like the one where Fumbleson dropped that handoff near the Saints' goal line and they lost would have been an easy 7 points. IIRC, they actually awarded that fumble to Favre because Fumbleson never had possession, but the handoff routine was fine, Fumbleson just took his eyes off it. Fumbleson did have 2 other fumbles, one of them with very little contact and his cradling arm not even being touched by the defense. And then that dumb pass over the middle into the heart of the secondary by Favre at the end of regulation when they were on the edge of field goal range. My NBA comparison for that game was Kings/Lakers game 6/7 in 2002, the favored team won that game because the more talented slight underdog gave it away and got some ty calls at the end.
The Giants are one of the best December teams in the league (as are the Panthers). They have gone...6-3 since 2014.
Here it is the perfect situation for a Panther loss.
They are on the road.
They are without their stud back.
They are in the playoffs.
The Giants must win them all if they plan on making the playoffs.
Perfect 'spot" for a Giants win.
If the Giants do win, it means absolutely nothing. If the Panthers had to have this game and Stewart wa playing they win it, and they still might.
We have the classic must win vs yawn scenario here.
You conveniently leave out how the Vikings got good field position thanks to Bush muffing a punt. If Bush doesn't muff the punt, the Vikings never got a chance to fumble it away in the first place. Plus, the Saints forced two other fumbles on Peterson which could have easily been recovered but weren't. The other fumbles were forced as well. The fact is, the Saints played their worst offensive game of the season and the Vikings couldn't take advantage of it. They deserved to lose that game. Either way, their secondary would have gotten thrashed by Peyton.
