I knew they were unbeaten but watching New Orleans cut thru the Patriots is something else, not like New England suck they have been playing pretty well.

I was hoping the Pats would take it to the Saints, just to help Favre out. But the Saints are beyond impressive offensively.
If it can't be Favre in the Super Bowl, a Saint vs Colts/Chargers game would be fantastic. Honestly Vikings/Saints vs Colts/Chargers any way you match them up is going to be a fun game.
Im bias being a Vikes fan but I realy think they have a solid team, but the Vikes traditional fall to anybody come playoff time ....go Brent Fav-erea' !
The Saints are just so solid right now. I was seriously impressed. They were just doing everything right.
I'd be happy with seeing the Saints vs Viks in the Super Bowl just to see the Viks get destroyed.
That would be an interesting Super Bowl. Especially since it's impossbile since both are NFC teams.

They don't choke in the playoffs. They lost last year to Pittsburgh, a much better team. They lost by 3 points the prior year to NE who didn't lose a game all season. They end up playing better teams. Shit most years they end up running the table just to get into the playoffs. The one year River's blew out his knee and still played and they barely lost. They are a much better overall team then the Colts.
Only year they "choked" was in like 05 when Brees got hurt and they lost to the Jets in the first round in OT.
Yes sir mas'a.Quote:

Anyways getting back to last night..IT WAS AWESOME, besides the fact that I hate the patriots...the guy I was playing in fantasy football needed 26 points between Tom Brady, Randy Moss, and the NE kicker to beat me..and he didint!! hahaha I thought I was going to loose for sure!! (game was for first place too)
I STRONGLY disagree on the Chargers being a much better team than the Colts. That's absurd. They have nothing better than the Colts besides their running game which isn't great by any means.Quote:

Im calling it right now. Drew Brees and Bret Favre will share the mvp award......
Colts aren't anything special and im really surprised that they are undefeated..they have gotten lucky more than once and lately, Payton has been throwing like complete shit, wayne and clark are making some awesome catches with his shitty throws. Chargers and Colts would be a pretty even match up, chargers have a nice streak of beating the colts in the playoffs year after year so im hoping it continues.Quote:

Should be interesting to see them actually healthy this year.
Then what you are describing is the Colts in the playoffs. Because they lose all the time to lower seeds. Like the Chargers who knocked them out of the playoffs the last 2 years.Quote:

Tomlinson hasn't been a. big factor in years, Sproles usually ends up outperformig him.Quote:

I don't like to make excuses for those years for LT because it pissed me off too but for a dynamic runner, leg injuries go a long way. If he was a power back then I could see how toughing it out would have been an option but if your whole game relies on your ankles and feet to be explosive and they are hurt I would rather have sproles in there. If you watched LT from the begging of this year it was sad...he kept tripping on himself ect. but he is slowly getting a step back. Not saying he is going to be the same but at least an impact on the team this year and I really don't question how badly he wants a Superbowl either lol last couple of years he has realized that he is not getting any younger!Quote:

No denying Rivers is a great/underrated QB. The Saints are on fire, then again so were the 07 Patriots and look what happened.
