I just don't see the 49ers as much of a threat as the Saints. I just can't make the leap. Look, we got exposed for 1 half during the Tampa Bay game when they stacked 7/8 in the box and forced Russell to win through the air. Something the Saints tried (and succeeded at stopping the base run game). Oh, but I'm sorry Sean Payton that you didn't realize we have a QB, O-Line, and Wide Receiving core that can win without a running game when needed.
The truth is though that we have a wickedly talented coaching staff that knows how to address and take advantage of teams that "try the same things again."
Beyond the players, I have also gained a complete trust in the coaching staff and their ability to prepare the team. I also trust this team to really step up in the big games. It would be a lot for me to presume, but, I believe this team would take it as a regular season failure to loose against the 49ers. I would even presume to say this game is more important to this team (Players) then the Saints game just base don pure, raw, pride.
