Saints vs. Panthers: Week 17 open thread

NFL on FOX - Week 17

New Orleans Saints (11-4) at Carolina Panthers (5-10)

The Saints face the Panthers today looking to earn a first-round bye with a win and a lot of luck. Knowing a win can keep the Saints on a path that may end with the NFC’s top-seed, the Saints will give everything they have early against the Panthers, unless things unravel quickly in Chicago and Glendale, then we may see the backups even earlier than expected. Here’s to the Saints earning a 12-4 record while also getting a dome divine intervention in the Windy City and the Arizona desert (which is passing for San Francisco today)!
