NFL ranks Seattle no1

[roachman]

Panthers get no respect, they been without Stewart last few games. Panthers haven`t been the same without their star RB, Stewart makes this team click. I think they will be ok when he plays in the playoffs. Even vegas got Arizonia favorite to win SB and NFC ahead of Panthers, I might be bias for the homies but still like Panthers to win it all.

Panthers beat every NFC playoff team this year.

Interesting that these ratings put more stock in a game played yesterday that was basically meaningless (SEA vs AZ), then they do over a game played just 8 days ago when SEA lost at home to a team with a losing record..

the game wasn't meaningless when it was being played, it didn't become meaningless until the hawks ran away with it combined with carolina pulling away but they didn't fall behind because they thought the game was meaningless. The rams are the worst possible match up for the hawks in the nfl, worst oline vs best defensive line. Rams superbowl game is every hawks match up. The books know what they're doing when they don't put endless stock in it but they know the cards beaten that badly at home, missing their defensive catalyst in the honey badger means something. Cards won't be an easy out but they're not who they were earlier this year.

I shared my thoughts in the NFC thread on this.

By and large, that game was meaningless.

IF you win, there is little chance it matters anyway. Did anyone really think CAR was going to lose to TB?

But IF you win AND TB pulls off a near miracle....

2 home games and most likely get SEA again in the 2nd round.

What would you rather have? @ CAR? or vs SEA?

I think they would SLIGHTLY prefer the #1 seed. But not by much.

The Cards did not have much motivation to win that game. It meant very little in the big picture. A more in depth analysis of why I think that is in the other thread.

 

[DesertDevil]

After thinking about it more, Id almost prefer the 2 seed.

The 1 seed likely has to beat both SEA and AZ/CAR.

#2 seed gets a much easier 1st game.

I think SEA is a very good team, but I don't think one should put too much stock in the Sunday game. The Cardinals were not going all out. Even in the first half before Carolina took a big lead it seemed they had a limited playbook and weren't all that concerned about being the #2 seed. NE had the same strategy -- in the FH they ran 26 plays and 21 were runs. And yet, at the time, the game technically mattered (granted, the Pat's have greater injury concerns that most teams). I am not knocking the Hawks -- they were great. But I am not going to let that game lessen my opinion of Arizona. I think if we get a SEA @ Arizona game in the divisional round, the game will be a close one and the Cardinals will be favored by at least 3.5.

Agree. But only way Seattle would play AZ again would be in the NFC title game.

I have to agreee. Nobody mentioning Carolina. I think they go all the way.

 

[wizard1183]

Carolina is underrated. I have a feeling they win it all.

Newton is still the "wild card".........If he is (on his game) and he is not hurting physically the Panthers will be hard to out-score.
