I somewhat agree with the argument that the OP is making but here is the rub: The Saints are in a tight battle to even win their division right now with the Panthers only a game behind them. Sure the Saints can learn from their mistakes this weekend but if they go in as a #5/6 seed, then they would first have to win on the road against the #4 (NFC East winner: Philly maybe?), and then might even have to play the #2 seed in the second round. So their odds of playing in Seattle again might be very slim
