This is the same talk I've heard out of Saints fans' mouths prior to week 13. Then 34-7 happened.
See, the difference is, we KNOW we can blow you out. Week 13 is evidence of that. Where's the evidence that you can even compete??? You are 4-5 on the road this year (including last week). Five road losses, and two of them were blowouts (vs NFC West teams, I might add).
How many decisive road wins have you had? You beat Chicago by a TD, and squeaked by the Bucs, Falcons, and the Eagles in the Wildcard. You really think you're going to pull off a ROAD win vs the best team in the NFC, who happens to also have the best home field advantage in the league?

Not sure you have the best home field in league. What was your record this year? We were 8-0... And as for going by past games, we blew out the cardinals, that amounts to nothing like all past games.....they play the game for a reason.....

I'll take Seattle's DBs over the Saints Receivers.
Outside of Graham they don't have shit.
-The No.1 WR on the depth chart is Colston...who has been irrelevant since NOLA went to the Super Bowl, in 2009. Yeah, a 30 year wideout is not going to do jack against this defense.
-Kenny Stills is a nice player, but he won't be able to take the punishment the LOB dishes at the LOS.
-No one else is even worth a mention.
If anyone can explain how this WR corp is going to best Seattle's defensive backs, I would love to know. Sometimes a team just doesn't match-up well, and this is exactly why NOLA goes home empty handed.

Pretty sure you should check Colston stats since 2009. We had 4 players over 70 catches this year. NFL record. We spread the ball so to have 1000 receiving on our team is huge.....

The Seahawks scoring defense is much stronger. We give up 14.4 points per game. The Saints give up 19.3. That's a difference of 4.9 points per game. That's the same as the difference between the Saints an the 19th best scoring defense the Jets and Bills. So unless you're saying the Jets defense is in the same realm as the Saints...

In my opinion, the Saints have a few players that would be upgrades if they were playing for the Seahawks:seanoob":yywvwij0 said:
Sproles - backup RB
Graham - TE
Brees - QB (yeah, I said it - let the gnashing of teeth begin!)
Evans - OL (probowl guard)
Grubbs - OL (probowl guard)
Saints offense appears to be statistically better.

1K receiving on that team isn't huge, haha. Drew Brees is good for 4k-5k yards of passing, guys are going to rack up yards through the air, because the team can't run the ball.
I may not have given Colston his due credit, but that doesn't change the fact he's 30 going up against DBs that are faster and stronger than he is. He had less than 30 yards the last time these teams met, he's the NUMBER 1 receiver. If they have to rely on him to win this game, all I have to say is...good frickin' luck. He's still irrelevant.

The Saints are the odd man out in a field of teams that just play an entirely different brand of football. The Panthers, Niners and Hawks are all really nasty good teams in ways that NOLA can't handle outside of their dome.
I just don't see them winning, I just can't logically find a valid reason they should. Sure, the game has to be played, but these Hawks, especially at home tend to take their game to another level in pivotal games. They welcome the attention and pressure. It only makes them better.

Yeah, maybe the best offense at home, nothing more than mediocre on the road. Averages out to top 5. Brees struggled against a mediocre at best Philly D in a house with nothing resembling HFA.
We didn't have many top offenses on our schedule this year, the one we did have (Saints) we destroyed. We negated the Pats and Packers last year, HOF QBs all. Think this defense is worse than that D? The only difference this year is the ton of pressure generated by Bennett, Avril, et al.
But go ahead, believe that the AZ game is is a representative sample. Believe that the Philly game for the Saints represents...anything more than a squeaker against a bad defense with a questionable Eagle HFA.

Am I reading this garbage right? A Saints fan here trying to explain how they have some advantage in this game. Comparing games against AZ? Really?
How can anyone refer to that game with any confidence, then look at what happened to the Rams in the last week of the season? This all overlooks the head to head matchup of course. There isn't a single item that a Saints fan can argue, that can't be retorted with an equally unfavorable one.
Look here Saints fans, you all talked the same garbage last time. We get it, there is a chance that the Saints can win on Saturday, but don't try to argue it with stats, rankings or wins in Philly. In the Clink, those don't matter, but you already know that don't you?
