It's playoffs - you have to play the best teams. Pointless speculation.

That's the point of the playoffs- it's all teams that can beat you (except for the NFC south). And are we talking about going one and done? let's get an easy matchup and then face a harder team and lose?

The Eagles an easy out? They've got vets on that team that have won in the playoffs. They'd also be at home.

The playoffs are not the regular season and so the thinking has to change from - 'let's hope for this opponent' - to 'who's next?'
