When Mike Nolan's Defense Has 2 Weeks To Prepare

In the Playoffs we won't know who we might face until after the weekend....so the real prep can start until after we know....Nolan can anticipate and he can try to fix issues that he think apply to every team we face (such as our tackling - which has been better the last couple of weeks especially) but he can't do the real stuff until we know for sure.

GB makes me a bit nervous, as do the Giants (but either team has days where they come in flat)
Bears I am not too worried as their O-line is in disarray....their defense is good, when our Offense clicks it is way better
SF doesn't scare me too much....they too are an up/down team....
Seattle could get hot (this is my pick for the 6th spot) - would love to see a GB-SEA match up again....that would be fun......

Should be interesting. I see GB getting the #2 seed provided they beat the Bears again....
SF #3
East Winner #4
GB or Bears #5 (loser of their next match up)
Seattle

So SEA/SF play week 16 and will likely meet again week 18 (wildcard weekend)
which would match the Bear/GB with East Winner (NYG/WASH/DAL) I think NYG but wash and Dal have lighter schedule if WAS beats NYG tonight

Who will we play first? It will either be SEA or CHIC/GB (loser of their next Matchup) - I would love for it to be Seattle....since they have had a harder time on the road this year....it would be extra cool if their CBs got suspended right after their first playoff win....lol

My gut feel is the Bears....then the winner of SF/GB

I guess we will see how my predictions go....

I wonder...........so we've lost our last 3 PO games.so does this mean there's a chance that whomever we play is going to come in thinking, "it's the Falcons, they can't win in the playoffs" and be flat? Everyone seems to think that just because we've lost the last three times, we'll never EVER win one again
