I’d love the 5th seed, but in all likelihood that will end up belonging to the Bucs or Rams.
Winning the division this year will be overrated. The 3rd seed which is currently Seattle (I see the NFC North & South getting the top two seeds) is going to be rewarded by having to play again either the Bucs (I’m assuming the Saints win the south) or the Rams.
I think the Cards best chances in the postseason is any path that avoids having to play a divisional rival a 3rd time. Having familiarity against an athlete like Kyler is a true advantage. I would happily take my chances against the Saints or Packers during wildcard weekend.
