I know, haters will hate

But, if the Rams win out how do the Saints get the #2?

Could rest some guys the last 2 weeks if so

IF the Rams win out we could lock up 2 seed after the MNF Carolina game but at that point we'd still have a shot at the 1. I don't know why we are talking about locking up a 2 seed TBH, we are plenty capable of getting the 1

We need to win at least three** more games to lock that up as long as everyone else within reach continues to win.

**Didn't realize the Bears had the better NFC record.

Bears vs Rams is a big game for playoff/seeding purposes. With four games left, no real need to start contemplating all the scenarios until after this week IMO.

Really, we need to get back in our grove and beat Tampa in the second of three road games and get into the playoffs. That’s what I’m more focused on.

Saints have to win out and go 14-2 because even if the Rams are 14-1 going into week 17 there's a chance in the late afternoon game that the Rams could lose to the worst team in the league in the 49ers and we'd clinch the #1 seed in a 14-2 H2H tiebreaker over the Rams.

Hosting throughout the playoffs is the only way we can recreate the 2009 Super Bowl magic and repeat. See 2011 postseason for proof when Saints had their best team ever.
