Simply just on chance alone, there is a very good chance that this game will be much closer than last. How often does the rematch game result in a blowout after the first one was a blowout? I would guess very very little....
It would be foolish of us to extrapolate the results of the MNF blowout and think we cruise this Saturday. I see a lot of talk on the forums about who is the best match up in the NFCCG but I would only be worrying about the Saints. In fact, they may be an even tougher out than Carolina at this point simply because they know what to expect this time at the CLink in terms of crowd noise and energy.
I personally think the MNF game was a blessing in disguise for them because now they know what to expect and how to prepare for us this time in Seattle. They also have a lot more confidence than before as they just beat one of the hottest teams on the road in Philly.
I think this game may come down to a game winning FG type of situation, even possibly OT. I will be curious to see how the players interview this week. I want to hear them acknowledging that the Saints will be more prepared and ready this game compared to last and they will need to gear up even that much more.
