The regular season for the NFL is now over and basically a new season has just begun.  It doesn't matter your record now or how you got into the playoffs, just that your there.

The Saints are back in the playoffs for the first time since 2013.  The Saints will get a home game this Sunday and will face off against NFC South foes Carolina for the third time this season.

The Saints have beaten the Panthers twice already this year.  Once in Carolina and also inside the Superdome.
