Spread is a pick em should be a good game but who is everyone here rooting for? Seattle loss could help cement the division. A Minnesota loss could help with getting a first round bye. Personally I'm rooting for Seattle as much as it pains me I just don't see them being a threat in this division anymore.

Minn. Seattle is always a threat.


I just view it as AZ has a three game lead right now so a lot has to happen for Seattle to comeback only 2 losses have to happen for AZ to have to play that first week

Still remembering last season. Taking nothing for granted. Until the division is locked, I cant worry about playoff seeding.

If what happened last year happens again even if we lock up the division we still would lose to a wildcard team

I could never and would never cheer for Seattle!

And then theres this, too. But it really comes down to the enemy I know. I havent seen the Vikes play enough to know how much of a threat they really are. I have repeatedly seen SEA left for dead only to come back late in the season. Theyre a division rival, I want them OUT of the playoff picture entirely. Unfortunately, the second tier of the NFC is letting em in.

I could go either way. I'd personally like to see a really physical game that goes for an entire 5 quarters and ends in a tie. I'd like to see Minnesotas defense play between 80-90 snaps, and Seattle win the time of possession battle 2-1. I won't go so low as to suggest injury, but I hope Minnesota is still feeling the drain and pain in 4 days

Seattle Do not want to travel to Minny in January. If Minnesota continues to win...and beats us....that's where we will go. Seattle still has to come to the desert, so we have a say in their playoff future. Minnesota will be in....so, I hope for all of the Minnesota losses possible.

Vikings. If they win today, all we would have to do is go 1-3 in the final 4 weeks to win the division although I don't see a scenario where Seattle doesn't make the playoffs. The conference is in too much of a mess and they'd need to lose out not to make it and even then they might still be in.

Vikes. I cannot bring myself to root for Seahawks under any circumstances.

Vikes. One because it helps our division chances and we can take of minn on our own. Also it hurts the Hawks because they may not make the playoffs and even if they do they could potentially play Carolina in the divisional round instead of the cards.

+1

Seattle needs to go. With Wilson running around there is always that chance he makes that play that turns a game around.

Then we hope whoever plays Minn in the first round can knock them off

You are assuming we win against the Rams. If I have the tie breakers right, if we beat the Rams and Seattle WINS, we still only need only 1 win against Green Bay, Minnesota or Seattle to win the division. (Philly is not as "strong" of a win the way the tie breakers shake out)

So, if we win, I want Seattle to win. The difference between the 3 seed and the 2 seed is huge.

If we lose, I want Minnesota to win.

I like our circumstances , here is the big picture , Minny has to play Sea hawks --- Packers ---- and Cards , thats tough sledding for them . Packers have to play Cards and Minny , tough sledding . Sea Hawks have to play Minny and Cards , tough sledding , Cards have to play all three of them , but couple the fact that as those teams play each other , one will absorb another loss , and the fact that each of them have to come to the desert to play the Cards , We are in the Drivers seat folks , as they face each other I will be content that one will lose .

This is an easy one vikings how anybody who is a cardinal fan could possibly cheer for seahawks is maybe the craziest thing ever we win the division with other teams in our division losing while we continue to win. Let's get to the playoffs before we worry about where we may have to play Imo

I still fear Seattle more than any team in the NFC. I don't even want them in the playoffs. Kill them off and take care of the Vikings at home on our own.
