Otherwise, we did get some help in the wild card race. If we lose tonight, the spot is still ours. Tonight is a must if we want to have a little bit of breathing room.

At this point I'm not destroyed if we don't win the division. It helps with home field but honestly, this team hasn't played lights out at home. Odds are that the Rams have #3 locked up, so at best we'd get a #4 spot and even then it'd be against CAR or NO. Those 2 teams play there enough that I'm not sure it'd matter much.

I'm not so sure that the #6 spot isn't a good one to be in. I think the Rams are beatable for us whereas the Saints and Panthers are always tough division games.

#3 Rams vs #6 Falcons
#4 Saints vs #5 Panthers

I could easily see the Panthers knocking off NO and then it would just be on us to pull off a mini-upset. But anything we do is a mini-upset to the NFL. We were the #2 seed playing the #6 SEA last year and they were still favored. Then played GB and there was "no way" we could win that game either.

I put my savings into Ripple (XRP) once someone on the Money Board said they were going to be moving over to Coinbase soon. I don't have enough between that and spending the other half of my savings on the first NO game.

No worries. I got this one covered. My extra I've earned in Bitcoin has me feeling like Scrooge McDuck over here.
Just wait until the 2nd New Orleans game.

Here's hoping Sark doesn't fall in love with that limp dick toss play that never works tonight

As a fellow Auburn fan, this is totally unacceptable. May need to bench you.

For all the money spent, and players drafted early, this sure is a shitty defense.

If you play 10 yards off the receiver, all they have to do is run 8 yards and turn around.

How can a team so consistently give up drives like that after the offense scores a huge go ahead or take a 2 score lead TD.

Fvck them

Tampa literally had almost half of their players playing right now being backups. And we're doing THIS.

I bet Bama fans are glad that Sark left their program. He is a terrible play caller. That is why the Falcons are fighting for their play-off life.

The ultra conservative calls on 1st and 2nd down will come back to haunt them.
