Which team would you like to face at home? I don't think we'll get a first round bye......so, who would you like to come to Arizona?

Chicago, Washington, or Minn. Or whoever. Wouldn't mind getting the Iggles again.

I'd like to give the Birds another crack at the Panthers.

agreed. I'd LOVE to play the Skins the most though. That team is just waiting to be put out of their misery by someone. The Panthers still have guys who really scare me and can take over games on both sides of the ball (Peppers and Smith), the Cowboys just have a ton of talent and the Falcons just have as complete an offense as anyone's gonna see in this league.
the Skins basically have Clinton Portis and an okay D. They'd be as close to a layup as it gets for us.

I just think that anyone we play is going to be tough. The sad truth is the Cards are probably the one team that fans of anyother NFC playoff team want to play. Here's hoping the Cards lay a smack down in the playoffs.

that actually hits the nail on the head.

Not in our house! People around the league know that it is hard to beat us at home. We have one of the best home field advantages in the league.
If we get into the 2nd round and hit the road, thats when people will be dying to play us.

No way. Unless they are ignorant, they know how good our passing game is and how good we've been at home. The NFC North champ will be less scary, no matter if it's Minny or the Bears.
The Panthers tick me off for some reason. I'd love to knock them out of the playoffs.

all the teams going to the playoffs are tough at home though.

Living outside of the Valley I don't really encounter Cards haters anymore. It seems that you have to live in AZ to actually hate the Cards. I find a lot of fans pleasantly surprised, or happy for the Cards. But, they're always pretty sure that there team could take them. A win or two in the playoffs and a solid season next year could change all of that.
Speaking of which, a question to all of those Bay area fans: do the Crads inspire true venom there yet?

I think the Panthers would be a nice draw for us. One team we DON'T match up well against is the Eagles. The Cowpukes & Skins are NOT going to the playoffs!

if the Bears got in they would definitely be the least intimidating, although no one like to go to Chicago in January.
and if the Vikes get in, who knows if the middle of their D will be playing or not.

I dont want to see Atlanta or Dallas. I hope our path is Carolina at home, in Tampa, then someone who upsets the Giants so we can play at home again.
I Live in Norcal, go to the bay and know tons of people from the bay, I dont think the Cards are even on there map. I have been pleasently surprised, seeing alot of people with AzCards on there Cars and trucks, its almost shocking when I see it, It's the same feeling you get I guess if you saw bigfoot.
I want to see the Cards and the Panthers again at home. If the Cards get Dallas and knock them out at home, that would as close to Nirvana as you could get next to winning the Superbowl.

agreed. if we can win the home game and get the 3 seed at least we'd have a shot against Carolina or Tampa. Going up to the Meadowlands sounds like something that would tempt me to put whatever money I had against us. that's just a recipe for disaster.
Well. we can overcome most defenses we play, so I would hope to get the team the least explosive offense.
Skins, very conservative offense
Bears, run well, but no receivers
Vikings, see Bears with a mediocre QB
Yhere is still a lot of football left to play and a lot could change before the playoffs start.

home field means a lot but let's face it most teams would prefer to play the cards in the playoffs. they will probably be the weakest team in the dance.
From a big picture perspective it's great we are heading in the right direction. But we still have a way to go before we become FEARED.

ANy team that comes to Arizona in January will have quite a challenge on their hands. We are, after all, the highest scoring team in the NFL and the Nest can be a very nasty place to play in.
I'm not willing to concede we are the weakest team in the playoffs. A couple of weeks ago there were quite of few "experts" believing we would be the #2 seed.
There is still a lot of football left to be played. The whole playoff scene could turn upside down by the end of the season.

Looking at Bucs shoddy tackling, which appears to be worse than Cards right now against Panthers on MNF, I'd love to get Bucs...
