Congrats to all Saints fans!!

Hi all,

I'm a lifelong Jets fan and I just dropped by to congratulate you and wish you well against the Colts. You guys have some of the league's best fans and whenever Saints fans post on our messageboards they are super cool to talk football with.

Manning and the Colts made our secondary look silly yesterday. Honestly, if he is on like he was yesterday it could be a long day for your Defense. However; unlike the Jets, the Saints have the Offensive firepower to run with the Colts.

BTW- Thanks for not letting that phony Brett Favre win another Super Bowl!!

Thanks for your post, GangGreen! Good to know you're not buying into all that "Poor Favre" crappola!

Not in the least. I'm sure that Packer Nation breathed a huge sigh of relief too!

Thanks for your post. Jets fans as a whole have been some of the classiest I've seen all season.

The difference between our D and yours, is that while your scheme and front 7 are as a whole probably better than ours, our secondary is better as a whole than yours. Revis is by far one of the best shutdown corners in the league, but our trio of Greer, Porter, and Gay might be able to do well where your CB's (other than Revis) struggled.

You guys have many years of success ahead of you.

Thanks Gang Green. You guys really lucked out this year with Sexy Rexy and Sanchez.

Who would have thought a rookie head coach would lead a team with a rookie QB to the AFC Championship game.

I admit, I slept on you guys this season, but I was genuinely surprised when you handed the Chargers a loss last week. Congrats on your awesome season!

Nice post. Manning is going to be a challenge but we beat a snot bubble out of two QBs this year in the playoffs. We'll be bringing the lumber in Miami and see how the dice fall.

Thanks Green, both of our teams have over-achieved this year.

No arguments here. Yesterday's defensive debacle made that abundantly clear. As you said, Revis is a stud but there's little quality depth behind him. The Jets have lived and died by the blitz and it's covered up a lot of warts in the secondary.

Your corners are solid. Very underrated, in my opinion. And Sharper has been outstanding all year. Vikes made some big plays on them yesterday but it was only because they were incredible throws and catches. The one to Berrian comes to mind.

I hope to see a great game and I really hope you guys pull it off. As a long suffering Jet fan, I can't help but feel happy for fans of teams with similar histories.

Welcome to the Who Dat nation. The Jets are one of the teams that gave the Saints fits. You guys have a lot to look forward to next season.

Sorry about yesterday, GangGreen.

My son is a big Jets fan and we were REALLY wanting a Saints-Jets Superbowl.

Best of luck next season!
