When, Saints avoid Dak for the time being....

[thekimmer]

But fellow saints fans, how do you feel about playing the eagles again? Would you rather face the defending champ that you embarrassed earlier but seems to have righted the ship and has a score to settle or a team you lost to on the road that you have a score to settle.

I really didn't want to face Dak but the eagles scare me a bit.

In the dome, plenty of time for fans to get rowdy, team well rested and Drew keeps them focused - we bout to get it. Trubisky threw for over 300, Drew will be slinging it all around. Can beat up on Dak next weekend.

The Bears were the team left in the NFC field that scared me most. Obviously any team can beat any other in the NFL, but I’m not scared of the Eagles, Rams, or Cowboys. Home field is huge for New Orleans. They have to be the Super Bowl favorite after this past weekend.

Saints were 2/1 to win super bowl last week. They're overwhelming favorite

I think the Eagles are going to be a tough out. They are playing well and

the saints are not hitting on all cylinders right now in my opinion. This one could be a big disappointment in the big easy.

 

[11thEagleFan]

Surprised they’re that big of a favorite. In any case, the Cowboys don’t scare me. The Saints have beaten the Eagles and Rams. Yes, I know the Cowboys won during the regular season, but the Saints played as poorly as they could have and still only lost by 3 in Dallas. If there’s a rematch, I think NO wins by 2 TDs.

Here's today...

Super bowl:
Saints 5/2
Rams 7/2
Chiefs 17/4
Pats 6/1
Charges and eagles 8/1
Cowboys and colts 9/1

NFC:
Saints 5/4
Rams 7/4
Eagles 5/1
Cowboys 11/2

Agree. Eagles are hot and have the football gods on their side. I think NO wins in a close one, I am teasing Eagles up.

 

[AtomicDog001]

I'm happy to be playing the eagles. With the eagles having won the SB last year, I don't think the revenge factor is a big deal.

The eagles secondary made Trubisky look like Tom Brady. With Ginn back healthy I expect Brees and the offense to be just fine.

I'll be wearing my Brees jersey on Saturday and Sunday for what it's worth.

 

[WrapItDog]

the Cowboys don’t scare me.

Dak is a Grown *** Man. Brees is a Little Elf Man

Dak is a Grown *** Man. Brees is a Little Elf Man

That was funny.

Whatever magic Foles has going ends on Sunday. Also, their DBs flirt with disaster on every play. Brees is going to light them up. I'll be a little concerned if the O-Line isn't healthy though.

Hopefully bushrod and peat are ok. I've given up hoping armstead will be healthy

not about who was hot in the regular season, but who is hot in the post season. Cowboys and Eagles trending up. Both have great defense.

Maybe, but #1 seed has made super bowl 4 of the past 5 years in nfc and 4 of the past 5 years in the afc.

The Cowboys played their absolute best and the Saints their absolute worst and won by 3. I really wanted to play them again but Dak’s season ends in a few days.

The Eagles are the perfect tune up game heading into the NFCC. Their secondary is in for a very long afternoon.

 

[esplanade91]

Saints were playing their 3rd game in 11 days when they lost to the Cowboys, so I chalk that up to a healthy loss that could have easily been against any of the other 30 teams. Don't see it happening twice.

Eagles were the best draw we could have gotten. Don't see them stopping Michael Thomas, and can't see Fletch getting past the heart of our OL. If you live within 2 hours of the Dome and you're not harassing fans in the streets the morning leading up to the game, shame on you***.

As as compared to two games in 7 days which everyone does every week.3 games in 15 days is much more accurate. Saints got whooped up on an dit would be a massacre with a rematch in the dome
