FalconFanSince1970 Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 (edited) Well I'm a big fan of the NFCS. One of the best divisions in the league since realignment. Very competitive. Extremely close.Since the NFCS was formed in 2002 no team has won consecutive division championships. On top of that, every team that finished last in the division went to the playoffs the next year. Wow.Each team has appeared in a conference championship game. In fact, an NFCS team has appeared in the NFC conference championship game in seven of the eight seasons since realignment.Here are the NFCS stats as of today:9-08-02 through 11-1-10DIVISION RECORDCAR - 29-21 (.580)NO - 25-26 (.490)ATL - 23-26 (.469)TB - 23-27 (.460)REGULAR SEASON RECORDCAR - 72-63 (.533)NO - 71-65 (.522)ATL - 69-65-1 (.511)TB - 65-70 (.482)PLAYOFF RECORDNO - 4-1 (.800)CAR - 5-3 (.625)TB - 3-2 (.600)ATL - 2-3 (.400)NFCCG RECORDTB - 1-0 (1.000)NO - 1-1 (.500)CAR - 1-2 (.333)ATL - 0-1 (.000)SUPER BOWL RECORDNO - 1-0 (1.000)TB - 1-0 (1.000)CAR - 0-1 (.000)ATL - 0-0 (.000)Interesting that if CAR had beaten NE in the Bowl they could lay claim to the division. Fox knows how to win in the division. Keep your eye on him folks. I think there is a scenario where we can take over just about all of these categories. I think it is something like win the South, beat TB in the NFCCG and bring home a Lombardi while NO loses a few more games and CAR continues to suck. Sounds good to me. What yall think?Disclaimer: I compiled these stats because I was suffering from an OCD attack. Please correct me if I'm wrong on any of them.

birds_till_death Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Worst to first streak ended in 08. Had we won the division Ryan's rookie year, we would have continued the streak then.as it happened, if New Orleans had not allowed Carolina to score in the last minute of the last game of the season, we would have won the division, first round bye, and a home playoff game instead of being on the road in Arizona.Stupid Taints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falken Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 That is great stuff FF70.Perfect scenario for me though.....win the division, win home-field, beat Saints 3 times including playoffs, avenge our loss to Philly in NFCCG, avenge our loss to Pittsburgh in the Super Bowl.

Also interesting to note that Carolina has typically dominated the Bucs and Saints, yet lost to us frequently over the years. A lot of those wins over the Panthers must've come from the Vick years -- I remember them always having trouble matching up against him.
