OT Saints playoff dates

[RPOdawg]

Alright me and the wife are going to a Saints playoff game in Janurary and I had a question about the Dates. It’s looking like the Saints will get a first round bye and will play their first playoff game on either Saturday the 12th or Sunday the 13th(divisional round). I’m trying to book hotels and plan a trip but have to work that following Monday so I need to know what day the Saints will play on for hotel booking purposes. Does anyone know if it will be a Saturday or Sunday game? How do they determine who plays what day? Thanks for any help you can provide. Also, any recommendations on things to do while we are down there would be greatly appreciated.

Typically the NFL releases the date/time for the divisional round (since they already know what teams are hosting) a day or two after the regular season ends. Wild-card round should be announced during or immediately after the final game of the regular season.

Legit possibility we get Cowboys at Saints in the divisional round. Love ya, Dak, but the Dome will 17'n lit for payback if that happens.

thanks. Yeah love dak but he can eat sh** if he comes to the dome. I laughed at these “saints fans” who were pulling for dak against us last week. I feel bad for dak because cowboy fans are absolute insane bastards who are spoiled rotten. He catches a lot of crap for things that aren’t always his fault. Anyways thanks again for the info. Looking forward to it! .

I understand where Hadad and others are coming from. I also understand why certain State fans are overly protective of Dak. Growing up, Brett Favre was my favorite NFL player. But also, we had season tickets to Saints games, and lived in NOLA for part of my life. My dad was a diehard Saints fan, so I inherited that. When the Saints played the Vikings in the NFC title game, it wasn’t a hard choice for me. I scared my wife with some of the harsh words that I directed toward Favre in that game. Still loved the guy afterward.

if you grew up a fan of Mississippi state and an nfl team and that NFL team plays Dak and you root for Dak over your favorite NFL team then you were never a real fan of that NFL team. There are a ton of people in the state of Mississippi that are just kinda meh about the nfl and say they are “fans”. That’s fine i suppose. To each his own.

Spoiled rotten? We've had to endure being the butt of a joke for decades.

Cowboys hate is some of the most misplaced hate in sports. The Cowboys aren't some evil superpower like the Yankees or the Patriots or Bama - they haven't even been to a Superbowl in 20 years. Is the hate because of "America's Team?" If you look at fandom countrywide, and worldwide, it's completely true. Hell, they're really the world's team as much as America's team.

That's me, I'm very meh over the entire NFL anyway. I'm really a college football fan primarily even beyond the SEC. I had been a lukewarm Saints fan at best just because growing up in south MS, we had them force fed to us every week even back when they totally stunk. I pull for Dak and the Cowboys now because I'm an MSU and Dak fan before I'm a Saints fan or fan of any other NFL team but those that love the NFL and have their team, by all means they should pull for that team against any other team that may or may not have a former MSU player on it. If Dak leaves Dallas I would drop them like a hot potato.
