Let's get a few things straight off the bat so we understand each other.
---> Yes, your Saints are a very good team that we all respect. Drew Brees is the heart of your team not unlike Russell Wilson is the heart of ours. Go for the heart and you slay the giant.
---> We have no real beef with your team like we do with our division rivals, obviously the 49ers being the main nemesis we despise most. Try as some of you might (especially the trolls that won't last long anyways), it will be difficult to get us too riled up in a pissing match. However if that's your game and you're a glutton for punishment, enjoy our Smack Shack this week.
---> Historically, we have had a majority of Saints fans being cool. .NET is the BEST football fan forum on the interwebs when it comes to respecting our guests who respect our home. Intelligent debate is met in kind. I don't think there will be any issue this week as the vast majority of Saints fans are as cool as Seahawks fans in general. Both have similar histories of many years of failure with recent decades being kinder. Even though the Saints have a ring that we covet, there's still a sense of kindred spirit action here.
---> Some of us expect to blow you guys out again as we did the first meeting in early December. However, the vast majority do not expect that same outcome. Most of us will expect a dogfight, and not unlike yesterday's wildcard games, it may come down to a field goal. Adjustments will be made by the Saints and they now have valuable tape to reference which they didn't have before. This will help them no doubt, but clearly that alone won't guarantee anything.
---> Your defense is not too shabby. Unfortunately our defense is the best in the NFL. You can do the math without me needing to be rude.
---> To end, let's enjoy the discourse this week. Keep it civil, intelligent and you will receive the same in return. In the end, we both wish for the same thing. We want our teams to advance to the NFC Championship game with no injuries. May the best team win. Sorry it happens to be us this year.
