and the saints are a better than the teams the vikings lost to....in fact they just crushed the cardinals who the vikings lost to by 14 points

Damn this game is close to call but I think the Vikings will win it. Vikings defense is better.

I see AP going apeshit on the Saints this weekend. And I don't think the Saint O-line can stop that Vikings pass rush. This game comes down to protecting the quaterback, like it always does. If NO can somehow block that pass rush. Brees will eat the Vikings alive, the Vikings secondary is garbage.

I think if we do what we did last game and try to get up early it will make them have to throw down field to catch up and I think we'll have the advantage there. But the keys for us is trying to keep Brees protected. That means the Left side of the O-line is gonna need a lot of help. All Brees needs is an average of 2 to 2.5 seconds to make a decision because of his quick release. The other key is stopping the run early which is probably going to be the hardest part if AP really gets going. Either way I think its gonna be a great game.

The Vikes haven't been that good on the road but they are still dangerous. I respect the Vikes and I believe its gonna come down to the wire if both teams are able to execute.

The Colts vs Jets will be predictable. If the Jets can't score more than 20pts they might as well hang it up. Plus the Colts were able to shut down the Ravens nasty run game and I think they'll be able to shut the Jets down too.

If the Vikings defensive line can play like they did against the Cowboys not only will they beat the Saints they will win the super bowl. That Dline was playing the way the Giants D line was playing during their run. They were going over, around, and through the Cowboy oline. Not just one position but from all for positions on the line. Right end, left tackle, left end. It was like watching trying to blog a whole in a leaky damn only to have another whole spring up and eventually the whole thing collapsing. If they can get that against the Saints I don't care how high powered your offense is you are don't shit if you can't even get a 3 step drop.

I wanna say the Vikings Vs Colts Superbowl, but I'm not sure if the Vikings can get past the Saints.

Did y'all see Reggie Bush in that game? He's a fucking problem. A kick off return and a big run to the house after breaking 4 tackles.

I think Bush will be the X factor.

But I want the Vikes and Colts in the SB

If the Vikes give Brees time their weak ass secondary is gonna get embarrassed. It all comes down to the line play of both the squads. Whoever is able to protect the QB will have the advantage. What I did notice about Favre which a lot of people either seemed not to notice or just plain ignored is in a few instances when pressure was put on him, in vintage Favre manner he threw the ball up for grabs, but got saved by Rice's great plays. In most cases your not going to be able to get away with that. Also although AP is a threat his O-line hasn't been moving people of the ball for a while now. Their O-line are their weakness along with their secondary. Their big, but slow and not athletic at all. The Saints blitzing scheme can give them fits. With the Saints they have to force the Vikes to be one dimensional. Stop the run and force Favre to throw the rock, because like we all know he is good for an epic screw up.

I don't think he was just throwing it up for grabs. Those were perfect passes and great catches under pressure. On both long touchdown passes the DB got beat by both the ball and the receiver.

^^^but you agree Favre is notorious for taking stupid risks with the rock?

Oh yeah no doubt but those passes weren't high risk passes and they were on point. They were deep balls one against a safety who isn't used to turning and running with a reciever and they other against man coverage with no safety help. Those are shots you have to take when they are available. They were relatively safe passes its easier a big play or an incomplete pass.

SAINTS WIN IF:

minnesota pass defense is mad suspect so if the saints can get up early in the game 10-3, 14-7 i think they can build off that and feed off of the crowd because when the saints are up that crowd is the 12 man in the superdome, put pressure on farve and like last weeks game force turnovers the saints led the league in points off t/o this season and i dont think the vikings secondary can cover the saints wideouts because brees get everybody involved you cant just focus in on 1 person you have to worry about the other 6 recievers hes throwin the ball to and last but not least the saints d-line will have to get off the ball quick,win in the trenches against minnesota o-line fill gaps and STOP THE RUN.

VIKINGS WIN IF:

relentless pressure on brees it helps that they have one of if not the best defensive coordinators in the nfl leslie frazier and what ever game plan he drew up to beat the cowboys the same gameplan will be needed to beat new orleans get drew brees out of rythme make him uncomfortable every time he drops back to pass,the saints havent showed they can beat you with their run game this year theyve been pretty much balanced but if you can contain that passing game and make the saints have to run a majority of the time like when they played dallas in the superdome it will work right in the vikings favor because it will be hard for the saints to consistanly run on that vikings run defense so get to brees make the saints one dimensional and the vikings are goin to miami
