Saints VS Seahawks

[Bandwagon King]

On to next week.

and that's all folks. Your season is over. BTW, you better enjoy your little run this season because a QB with 100 yds. passing/game ain't gonna cut it Chief. Next year the Saints get off probation and they'll whack the whole fricking league. Also, I hope whoever's in the Superbowl enjoys playing in lots and lots of snow. I have a pretty good source who says it's gonna be a record blizzard in New York on Superbowl Sunday. Am I bitter? You're GD right. When the commissioner gives your team the death penalty because he doesn't want his party spoiled, it
p!$$3s me off just a little.

Go home Kyle...you're drunk.

I am actually encouraged by the Saints future. They have run the ball better since Armstead and Robinson have been playing more and those are two rookies. Being able to run more effectively will allow them to compete better on the road. They can still move the ball in the air on the road at times as they did so today when the weather improved. Of course they still play half their games at home which some people forget when pointing out the road issues. Not having Vacarro hurt them today as he could have helped control Lynch. They do need to have a consistent place kicker. Seattle's guy has had a great year considering the weather they often play in. He was a huge difference today. He will need to do the same if they want to advance. If I were them, I would fear the Niners as they have a defense to match theirs.

The 49ers are not a source of fear. They lose in Seattle like everyone else.

Cry some more, Mr. Salty.

We played a damn good team. Our defense was awesome. Brees struggled... but that aggressive super athletic Seahawk defense had something to do with it. Anyone getting down on the Saints is kind of silly. I can't get over listening to former NFL football players and how dumb they often approach analyzing these post season games. We're seeing the best taking the other best's best stuff. They act as if x didn't perform up to his standards... without any consideration of the opponent play. Most contests come down to match ups... and in this case "conditions" also played a factor. We are dependent on our passing game and Brees couldn't throw a wet ball in the first half. And a super secondary took away his mojo.

Outside of being bummed about the loss, I was extremely impressed with the Saints defense under Ryan. You can't say we didn't contain Wilson... perhaps as well as any defense can. And again, I'm extremely impressed with the Seahawks defensive secondary and of course, Lynch. That is a very solid team. If you play that game in the Dome, however, the outcome flips IMO.

I agree the outcome likely flips if the game is played in New Orleans and maybe even on a neutral field with good weather. However the Seahawks earned the right to play at home due to a more consistent regular season. Overall this season they were the better team and deserve to play in the conference championship game. The Saints do need to improve in one area defensively and that is in forcing turnovers. They were very poor at that in the 2nd half of the year.

I don't think the Saints defense played that well. The Seahawks play calling helped keep the Saints in the game. Lynch ran all over them. They didn't sack Wilson once. Seattle did not put the ball down the field at all. Darrell Bevell and his schizophrenic play calling especially in the red zone made that a game.

Saints need to seriously alow Bret Baer try out as he would have been clutch on those two kicks!!!

3 sacks, Hawk.

Even during the game, announcers were talking about the Saints kept Wilson in the pocket.


I guess I was just equally as unimpressed with Wilson. He needs to play way better if you want to continue to win.
