The Saints Vs. the NFC West

After a loss today against the 49ers there are a few things to review. First off we all saw Alex Smith pull of a few late game drives that none of us thought he had in him. Going into today the 49ers may have been favored but a lot of people thought the Saints would win. But when we look closer we see interesting facts. First of this year and last year the Saints were knocked out of the playoffs by the 49ers and Seahawks. Also the only other NFC West team the Saints played this year was the Saint Louis Rams who the Saints lost to 31-21. The Rams only won 2 games while the Saints only lost 3. People will argue that the Saints struggle on the road and playing on grass and outdoors.  

The Saints go into 2012 with a 3 game losing steak against NFC West opponents. The Saints will host the 49ers at home in 2012 so we can see if the trend continues for them against NFC West opponents.

Good Luck Tebow

Good luck Tebow, the odds and numbers are against you, people don't think your skilled enough to go into Foxborough and win. If you win tomorrow people will start running out of ammunition to use against you. Tomorrow is an opportunity for you, Brady has nothing to gain only things to lose. Plus we all love watching New England lose.

Upcoming Saturday Divisional Round Games

Saturday Jan 15th


New Orleans at San Fransisco 4:30 ET
The 49ers are vastly improved and all there high 1st round picked players are finally showing what there worth, But Drew Brees and the Saints play 4 and 5 wide receivers and spread out the 49ers Defense and just flat out score more then the Conservative Alex Smith, while letting David Akers ad field goals.
Saints 34 49ers 25




Denver at New England 8:00 ET
The Broncos are fired up after coming of a Tebow led emotional overtime win at home against the defending AFC champ Steelers. While the Broncos Defense is above average and Tebow and the Offense played good wildcard weekend they don't match up with the Patriots. While the Broncos will play tough, and we all love watching the Patriots lose, I feel the Patriots end the playoff losing streak dating back to the 2007 season Superbowl loss.
