Why be so afraid of a team we have already beaten, will have beaten a second time according to your scenario and we would be back to back at home?

The heck with that noise. We need to just keep on winning. We Don't play scared.

The way ti breaks down is, if Cowboys win out, they will play GB in first round. NOt sure where some fans keep getting this we will play Philly scenario. Head to head, Philly will have the tie breakers and will be ranked higher than GB. And if Cowboys win out, Cowboys will be ranked higher than AZ I believe because of strength of schedule. So should be ranked higher than AZ. So will be 3rd ranked if they win out.

Either, let them win tonight before talking about matchups.

Amen! I don't just want to just get in the playoffs, I want to win the NFC East. All the games will be tough from here on out so it doesn't matter who we play. I want Philly being scared to face us twice in a row!

What a loser's mentality you have.




Why would anyone want to sacrifice a home playoff game in which we'd face a team we've beaten twice??

If we lose tonight, it'll be a week of posts wanting Wade's head on a platter.

If we win, it'll be a week of posts about how we don't want to show too much in that final regular season game, and may even benefit from losing it.

It won't equate to a win necessarily, but I don't think there will be a Cabo Wabo this time around.

Lesson has been learned.

I doubt that latter one. Maybe some fans will want it but we will be balls to the walls against Philly for the Division championship.

I don't like playing a team for the third time knowing we've already beat them two games. It's hard to beat a team three st8 times but at least it will be a home game. I'd rather do that than split with them and have to go to Philly and beat them again.

Either way we have to beat one of the better NFC teams to win the division and likely to stay in the playoffs. Philly is a handful.

If Arizona is the 2 seed and we win the division, we will play green bay.
I'd rather us play Philly than Green Bay. Green Bay is one of the hottest teams right now.

Ironically it would likely be easier to play in Arizona than host philly two weeks in a row.

Homefield is bogus this year, Dallas can win in Minnesota and New Orleans just as easily as lose in Dallas.

Why is everyone so afraid of beating a team 3 times? Wasn't it shown in the past that whenever the opportunity has come up, more often than not, the team that won the first two meetings also wins the 3rd?

Well, were you a fan in the 07 season? Beating Philly 3 times will be difficult enough, beating them twice in a row will be even more difficult. I'll take Arizona, Minni, or NO on the road over Philly at home and would not even think twice.

The Giants were playing their best ball, we were playing our worst and hadnt played the Giants since midseason. The situations are far from the same.
