First playoff game my prediction is Detroit at Dallas

Do you think GB and Seattle want to face the Cowboys? I'm sure they would rather have the Panthers, Cards, or Lions.

Seattle would love to play us again. Just like our players couldn't wait for the Eagles again. Seattle has righted their ship.

We have righted our ship too. Their ship was right when we played them. The Cowboys started their stretch of struggles. Cowboys have no reason to fear them.

I don't think we need to fear them at all. But it's not the same team we beat. Will be a hell of a game.

It is shocking considering they have the Megatron who is supposed to be 8 feet tall! One would think they would have an easier time scoring.

Stafford is mistake prone, and I want revenge for the debacle last year.

Yeah me too. That was an embarrassing loss for us last year, well the last 2 times we've played them. And they also have Golden Tate another person the Cowboys despise.

If we make it that far. Cowboys may have to go through Lambeau first. It will be a fun ride regardless.

Good because I'm sure Dallas welcomes it and it will be the same result. A loss for them. I don't think the Seahawks have righted much of anything. They've played the right opponents/QBs during this streak. They've faced Kaepernick twice, Sanchez, Lindley, and Stanton during their streak. Not exactly a murderers' row of QBs. I still think their offense is average and it takes them a while to get going in this little streak that they have going. The Cowboys aren't afraid and can beat anyone in the playoffs.

Now that they are in the playoffs, they have as much of a chance as anyone else.

If it's the Lions, so be it. If it's the Packers, so be it. Both teams are decidedly worse on the road.

The Packers scare me more than the Lions. The Lion offense has been very hit or miss this year (more miss than hit), and no one knows their personnel better than Scott Linehan.

That would be a good game with them having the # 1 run defense.

And who have we faced? I'm not discrediting any thing either team has done. Both have to play who they have to play. Seattle looks different to me than at the beginning of the season. Can we beat them? Sure. But I'm not convinced they haven't gotten better as the season moved on.
Of course it doesn't matter what you or I think, we aren't playing.

Despite for walking on water acts going into the playoffs, this Dallas team is now solid. But I would appreciate a little conditioning at the playoff level to sit in the experiences of this young and developing team. To this fan, a home game against the Lions would do fine...

Not 2nd and 3rd string QBs outside of Sanchez. During that same time period we've faced Eli, Sanchez twice, Cutler, Luck. That's significantly better than who Seattle has faced. Seattle I still think has some issues. That offense is always going to keep opposing teams in games because they aren't explosive enough. Last night they were up 14-6 in the 4th quarter until Arizona's defense wore down. If they have 14 points against us going into the 4th quarter they will probably be behind. I just think we have the formula/talent to beat them like we did the first time.

Not to be argumentative but Luck is the only QB we faced different that mattered. And if the WRs could catch it would have been closer.

Detroit....then Greenbay? Damn. So annoying.

Well you asked who have we faced compared to the Seahawks and I just gave you QBs that are better than what the Seahawks have faced. And last time I checked all those QBs matter because they are all with the exception of Sanchez starting QBs. Mattered? GMAB. They all mattered. You aren't really being tested facing Stanton, Lindley, and Kaepernick twice.
