NFL Sets Next Weeks Playoff Games

Ever since they lost their starting center Jamaal Jackson to IR a couple of weeks ago, they haven’t been the same team. They’re having a hard time blocking right now. I don’t see how they can beat Dallas next week. Although, Dallas has been known to be inconsistent at times this season, so anything could happen.

Arizona has somehow played much better on the road than at home this season, so they are still very dangerous despite the beat down the Pack put on them today. I think the Packers will win again and then face us in the next round. It should be a good game that we should be able to win.

We’ll have a pretty healthy team by the time this game happens. By my estimations, we’ll have the exact same offensive and defensive starters we began the season with, with the exceptions of Heath Evans and Kendrick Clancy. That’s pretty good when compared to the other playoff teams. Plus, I have to believe that Payton and Williams will have some dangerous surprises for whoever they face in the playoffs. WE…WILL…SMELL…GREATNESS!!!

are the Cowgirls that good right now? I think not. Mc Who ??? We could have beaten the Buzzards today with that team that we fielded in Carolina. If you think that Brunnel’s a bum, you should have seen McNabbbrrry.. Whatever…..

i would rather play arizona, but i think we will end up playing the pack . i really havent seen any of them play very much this season (esp lately) with the exception of dallas and the eagles for a couple of games.

The eagles play dallas next week and the winner of that game plays vikes to go to NFC chanpionship game

Cardinals play greenbay winnier of that game play saints to go to NFC championship

but i feel as if we’re going to have to beat green bay, who have an awesome defense of late and a pretty well functioning offense since the o-line woke up.

tough, tough game.

I go for Arizona. They have played OK on the road at times, but they’ve also laid some real stinkers. But I wouldn’t mind GB or Philly either. Any of them are beatable. Of course, we are too. But I’d like to think that our starters can play a bit better than our backups and since we’ll have almost all of them (save for the IR crew) back that should give us a good shot to at least host the NFC championship.

Definitely Arizona. They’ve been hit or miss all season. Their running game is improving, but certainly not as formidable as Green Bay or Philadelphia’s, meaning they’re less likely to control the clock. Their secondary is torchable. We’ve handled Warner in the playoffs before. The only things that truly concern me about the Cards are their WRs and pass rush and those are universal concerns, based on the Saints’ weaknesses.

The eagles are the only team in the nfc playoffs that we have played this year. I don’t know if that works to our advantage or not. what do y’all think?

( And shutting some of these people up that live around here). !!!!!!!!!

I wouldn’t mind playing the Eagles for one reason in particular: it would make a third Favre vs Packers matchup possible, without ending the Saints playoff run in the process. I’m pretty sure that’s what the game the vast majority of NFL fans wants to see, albeit at the NFC championship game level. If the Eagles beat the Cowboys, we might both get our wish.

Since any kind of success is dependent on the Saints regaining their early-to-mid-season form, I would take any of those teams. The good Saints can beat any of the three possible divisional opponents, with Green Bay being likely the toughest matchup. The bad Saints couldn’t beat Tampa Bay, much less Green Bay. So it all depends on which team shows up. And since all of our hopes are riding on a huge timely rebound from New Orleans, I’d take any of those three, least of all Green Bay. But Arizona would likely be the most favorable matchup, as we haven’t played them yet, and they look like the most beatable team in the NFC playoffs(though I’d honestly not be very concerned with Philly, either). I’d love Dallas to beat Philly and Minnesota, as I’d love a rematch, and Minnesota is the toughest possible opponent in the playoffs to me. Again, this is all assuming the good Saints come to play. I pretty much think the NFC North has the best chance to beat the good Saints. The bad Saints would be totally irrelevant in these playoffs, much like Arizona.

To Arizona’s credit, they quietly won 10 regular season games and a division title, two things they weren’t able to accomplish last season. After last year’s pst season run, I’m not putting anything past them.

is all I care about. I want a rematch with our team healthy and hungry for some payback. I hope the cowgirls make it all the way to the NFC championship game and hopefully it will be in the dome!!!

I think we run them outta the gym fully healthy.

Also, did anyone else notice Sunday afternoon (dallas vs philly) what song they were playing in Cowboy stadium for the kick-offs………………………………………..?
YEp, “Stand up and Get Crunck!” I may be wrong but I’ve seen plenty of Cowboy games on TV and can’t remember EVER hearing that song until they played us. Can someone tell me if I’m wrong or have they been playing it all season or they saw how much it got our crowd and special teams up and started using it themselves. I’m not saying were the only team that uses that song but I don’t think they used it before right?’Bastards!

I remember I took a poll about a month ago about who everyone was MOST afraid of in our 1st playoff matchup and the result was Arizona. Now, out of the three teams present, Arizona has become our smallest fear? Weird.

Here’s my take on it though: if the Saints truly are championship material, it doesn’t matter who comes to town. If they’re Super Bowl good, then any comer will lose.

If winning a Super Bowl was easy, any team could do it. To be the best, you have to beat the best. Right now, I think the Cowboys are probably the toughest competition in the NFC. Followed by the Packers. Don’t know exactly why, but Minnesota, Arizona or Philly playing in the dome just don’t concern me as much.

In a perfect world, I’d like to see Green Bay beat Arizona… Philadelphia beat Dallas…Green Bay beat Minnesota in a third match up… New Orleans beat Philly…. and New Orleans beat Green Bay in the NFC Championship. The reason being is it would be such poetic justice for the Pack to end Farve’s season. If it doesn’t play out this way in my perfect world scenario, beating Dallas in the NFC would be a close second best.

we will WIN because at our best we are better than they are and… we have a better coach.
No disrespect to Wade Phillips, but he is “Wade Phillips”….
As Maximus said to Comedais, “we will have our revenge, in this life or the next”. It will be in this life………. Whoa Dat !!!

I’m definitely in the minority here, but I think the Green Bay matchup is our most promising.
First off, I’ll always choose the least experienced QB against our aggressive secondary. McNabb and Warner will be more prepared to handle what we throw at them.
Arizona’s WRs are fast and tall, which is a dangerous combination. I am scared of Larry Fitzgerald and Kurt Warner having at least 2 big plays.
The Eagles have DeSean Jackson really exploding onto the scene. They really looked bad this week, but they’re dangerous and can easily show up with both barrels firing.
Green Bay just doesn’t overly impress me. It would be the weakest offensive line out of the 3 teams, which we would take advantage of, especially with Grant hurt. I think we’d have at least 4 sacks.
