Ok - I’m ready to talk about it.
The Eagles currently have the 1 seed - with games against the Raiders and Cowboys remaining.
The Vikings have the 2 - Packers and Bears reminding
Let’s assume they both win out.
Do we want the 3 seed or the 4 seed?
Which is the better track? To play the 6 seed? (Lions, Seahawks, Falcons) and then if we win go to Minnesota? Or would we rather play the 5 seed (probably Panthers - maybe the Saints) and then go to Philly?
We may get the the point where week 17 gives us this choice - where we can rest our 1s against the 9ers knowing we will play 1 home game on wild card weekend and then hit the road to either Minnesota or Philly.
Myself, I’d just go for the 3 and let the chips fall - you may end up at home for the NFC championship game that way even though I think Minnesota is tougher than Philly right now.
