People are going to freak out no matter who we end up playing.
Eagles? Five-game winning streak! Wentz on fire! WE'RE GONNA DIE!!!
Seahawks? Our kryptonite that already beat us at Levi's? Russell Wilson?? WE'RE GONNA DIE!!!
Vikings? A talented team that won in the Dome? Cousins finally figured it out?? WE'RE GONNA DIE!!!
Rinse and repeat if we win and go to the NFC Championship.
Personally I still think our toughest possible playoff matchup is the Ravens in the Super Bowl, followed by the Chiefs. So if we can't get to the Super Bowl then we don't deserve the ring. That simple.
