Yeah no need to worry about home-field. We are only one loss behind the Cowboys. And don't forget we own a tie-breaker with Atlanta. Once Atlanta has to start playing road games in November/December against someone better than Tampa, they will fold. Like the Saints, they are a finesse team that is built for the dome. The rest of their schedule is pretty tough, looking at it, wouldn't surprise me if they finish the year 3-4.
Right now the worst case scenario looks pretty favorable, we lose home field to Dallas. Dallas has little to no home field advantage. If we have to go play an NFC Championship game in Cowboys stadium, it will basically be a neutral field game.
Atlanta is 4-1 on the road. Including Wins in Oakland (Outdoors), Denver (Outdoors), Tampa (Outdoors) and a 2 point loss in Seattle (Outdoors)
We are 2-2 at home.
We've also played 5 road games vs 4 home games and are better on the Road, so not sure where this fineness team built for the road stuff is coming from. We have the #10 ranked rushing offense and #1 ranked passing offense. Our defense is young, with something like 7 rookies starting and 3 more players in their second seasons. They have a lot of young moments, and then they have some gelling moments, but if they can completely gel, I see no way of Seattle beating us in the dome.
You beat us by 2 in your own house with a young defense 6 weeks into the season. Yet a lot of Seahawks fans "are not worried about the Falcons"
That's pretty funny...
