IF the PACK wins Round One, WHO would you rather play ?

I think it is bad karma to even consider anything beyond this weeks game. We kicked the crap out of a team in a meaningless game. Big damn deal. It looks like the pack is better than this team, but when you have playmakers like Fitz anything can happen....Put the Koolaid down and worry about beating this Cardinal team and let the chips fall where they may...

We just finished 11-5 when 4/5 of the website wrote the team off after losing to TB. Give the Kool-Aid talk a rest. We are a playoff team.

You do realize the only teams that Arizona beat with winning records this year were Houston and Minnesota? No one else in Arizona's division finished above .500.

And people here discount the Packers schedule.

Vikings

Pros:
- We would have a full weeks rest because the Vikes play Sunday
- Eagles would have a good chance to knock NO off, so we still have hope for a full playoff game

Cons:
- The Vikings beat us twice and look to be getting back on track


Saints

Pros:
- The Saints are faltering down the stretch
- I'm a big believe in the DL being the most rare, important pieces to a team and N.O. just lost Charles Grant

Cons:
- We have no chance at a home game
- We have to play Saturday and they get a big rest

Really, I see benefits to each path and cons to each path. I think the Saints are a better matchup because they lost one of their valuable DL, but I'm also a big believer in the physical nature of the game and the reality of the body is an extra day of rest helps. I guess I'd rather have teh Saints because if we beat them Saturday and stayed healthy, we'd have 8 days rest where the Viking/Cowboy winner would only get 7 and I think the Saints are our best matchup. But then there's the matter of a home playoff game possibility. Eh, screw it, either path is about equal. Whatever happens, happens.
