There you go.

I don't think they can face New Orleans or Arizona with their first game under any scenario, so I did not add those options. If that is wrong someone let us know and we will change it.

I may be incorrect, but I believe if Philadelphia and Arizona win, and Minnesota loses to New York, Dallas would be the 6 seed and Arizona would be the 3 seed, meaning we would visit them in the Wild Card round.

One bit of reasoning to consider is that if we were to face either Arizona or Minnesota it would mean we lose this Sunday. They are division winners which means they will either get a bye or face a wildcard.

If we face Green Bay or Philly it means we have won this Sunday.

However, facing Arizona could also mean we have the bye and they are the 3rd seed over Minny the 4th seed.

At any rate I wish to reconsider my vote.

I was torn between the cards and the vikes i like our chances against both of them but i feel like we could really hurt the vikes the way they have been playing and they way we can stop the run.

We could still face the Vikings with a bye, if the Cards lose in the wildcard round and the Vikings win. The Saints will get the winning wildcard team and we get the last division winner, which would be the Vikings.

Correct?

IF we have a bye: I want Philly to go to ARI simply because it is across the country, and preferably on Saturday. Plus, would love a GB/MINN Favre rematch.

unfortunately, this is only possible if we win, giants win, and GB/ARI tie.

Give me the Packers at home. I know they're hot, but our offense was pitiful that day. I feel good about getting a second shot at them.

If we play the Vikings, it would be on the road. Vikings may be struggling in recent weeks on the road, but they're a different at home.

I voted for the Packers. If we play them, it would be in Dallas. I want another shot at them after how the last game played out.

Vikings = Free win, Favre is as overrated as he has ever-been.
Favre is the only reason Minnesota is in the position they are. Without him, they are probably not a playoff team. If anything is overrated, it is the Vikings team as a whole. Their special teams are terrible, their defense is hardly fearsome and their once lauded offensive line is a joke now. The Bears absolutely outplayed them and were it not for Favre's late heroics, that game last night was a blowout.

I would prefer Minnesota as an opponent to any of the playoff teams and it is not even close.

In a playoff game, I'd try to avoid the better QBs. Among our possible opponents, the 2 guys I'd avoid are Rogers and Warner.

That leaves Minny on the road or Philly at home. While Minny is struggling and very vulnerable, they'll be at home, still have good talent and that dome will be bezerk. No thank you.

So that leaves Philly in our place.

I would love to turn our rush loose on Kurt Warner. Now Rodgers I agree.

I'm pretty sure Favre has beaten Dallas in Green Bay. Favre has never won in Dallas and is 1-10 vs. the Cowboys I believe.

Bye. But if I had my pick of teams its be Arizona, though the only option of playing them is on the road and I want a home playoff game.
