I'll admit that it was starting to take on a life of it's own. The two teams are just stocked to the gills. And having both beaten the Cardinals (and no disrespect to the Cardinals, we treated that game like the Super Bowl, and used it as a defining moment for or team early in the season) - the Week 13 showdown is like the now annual Colts/Patriots game.
But luckily I was able to pull back from the abyss and realize that while it will affect playoff seeding - winning or losing this game isn't the end of the world. It will be a very important game to determine where the PAIN stand in our development - but if we lose, that helps us to.
I'd *much* rather lose in Week 13, than if/when we meet them in the playoffs. Sometimes losing helps more than winning. Which is what bothers us about potentially having to face the Cardinals again.
If the Season ended today, thankfully the Cardinals and Falcons are in a different bracket, so we would only have to face one of them before getting Crushed.![](/images/game/forum/smileys/wink.gif)
