The NFC playoff bracket set up really nice for us.
# 2 seed Packers are a team we put a beat down on not that long ago. A team that has a recent history of struggling on the west coast.
# 3 seed saints who I think are our biggest threat have a pretty tough road to get to us. They have to play the Vikings a team that honestly matches up pretty well with them and then have go up to Greenbay in January. The saints a team who lives in the south and play the majority of there games each year in a dome
We have as good of a playoff set up as I could have hoped for. My ideal Games would be to play Eagles and then to play the Packers. This doesn't mean it will work out perfectly for us and that we have an easy road to the Superbowl,as depending on who wins we could still be very easily looking at Playing Seattle then the Saints.
I think we will play the.....Seahawks.....Saints.....Ravens.
Those are all very tough games that match up well against us.
I would rather play the.....Eagles.....Packers.....Somebody not called Ravens but I think the Chiefs present a tough match up as well.
That's an easier road to the Super Bowl trophy. But there are no easy games now. It's 1 game elimination. You got to come ready to play each week now no matter who it is or how tough it is or how well they match up against you.
The funny thing is this is the most likely road, but the playoffs rarely go like that. There's an upset somewhere and hopefully if there is one on our path, it's in the Super Bowl (I know Baltimore would be favored over us) where we beat Baltimore or Kansas City (who could possibly be favored over us).
