Thanks to Jay Cutler and the Bears, who beat the Vikings 36-30 in overtime moments ago, the Saints have clinched the top seed in the NFC with a 13-2 record. Regardless of Sunday’s outcome @ Carolina, the Saints will have the best record in the NFC and will host games in the Superdome all the way up to the NFC Championship should the make it that far. For the first time in NFL history, “The NFC playoffs go through New Orleans”. Has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? It takes the sting out of the gut kick Tampa game a little bit. Granted, the Saints have their own problems to deal with, fix and improve upon and this isn’t the way we would have want to earn this, BUT this is a major goal and accomplishment for the Saints to cap a magical season. Never has a Saints team been this good or accomplished this regular season feat. Now it’s time for our boys to focus on their game and get this thing rolling! The playoffs will be in New Orleans! WHO DAT.
