Inside the NFL

Just watched it today. They all picked against the Saints with authority.
I don't blame Warren Sapp, he's defensive minded but Collingsworth and Boomer backed it up with nothing but the playing outdside factor and all the 49ers turnovers. I'll counter with Brees hasn't thrown a pick in the playoffs in 215 passes and the Saints are not prone to fumbling. And unless they tamper with the field it will be optimal playing conditions.

Picking a top-five (but not top ranked) defense this year over an offense that has outgained and outscored the most legendary offenses of all time. Good call fellas.

Wrong picks just pass. You'll never hear any accountability. I think they are picking against all reasoning with a HOPE that it comes true. That will make them look as if they know what they are talking about.

Add NFL network/Heath Evans to the nose pickers. I say let them all pick against the Saints. I like being under the radar. The sports media is just like the news media. They both like to create turmoil. Brian Billick says the Saints are the best team in the playoffs and yet picks the 9ers. Therefore the Saints are not the best? Well make up your mind already which is it? I wonder what they all will be saying after this weekend? A winning streak of 9 in a row! They are riding a wave which will not end in San Fran.

This game is a 50/50 game in my eyes. I have no beef with anyone who thinks the 49ers may win.

I think playoff experience and QB play gives us a very slight advantage.

Like mentioned, I am glad they are all against us. We do better in the under dog role anyway. I don't know just how much attention our players pay to this but I hope it motivates them just a little bit more.

We will all know the outcome of the game soon enough. Anyway, the guys on "No Huddle" all picked the Saints. And Gregg Rosenthal on profootballtalk.com picked the Saints and he's the only guy who has a clue what he's talking about on that site.

Well all four members of the "No Huddle" crew picked Saints over SF.

Faulk, Rose, McGinest and Charles Davis.
