Saints vs. Patriots for Super Bowl XLII?
 

Apparently USA Today says so according to this guy...

"USA Today's special preseason football magazine has the Saints meeting the New England Patriots in the next Super Bowl."

Anybody else seen this? I guess lines for the bandwagon start outside gate C on Poydras St.

Go Saints!

Here's the link.

Its good to see our boys in Black and Gold going that far this year. Obviously anything less than the Superbowl would be a major disappointment from last year. I clearly don't see another team in the NFC challenging us for that title. But just to rowl up some feathers - Here are my picks that would give us some trouble.
1. Chicago - Being so bitter from the lickin they gave us last year, Bears still are due their respect and still stepped up when it mattered. Remember the years the St. Louis Rams kept knocking out the Eagles? Last year, on paper we clearly were the better team, but that only goes so far.
2. San Francisco - Maybe not so much for the Division crown, but the way they had their gears rolling for the latter half of the season and the bonkers offseason. I can guarantee the NFC West is going to look a whole lot different. Just my opinion.
3. Philadelphia - We barely got past them last year. I wouldn't count them out and if McNabb is healthy all year. He could be money.

Anyways, J, its good to see a fellow Saints fan out here in the 310, 213, 818, or even 562. Not many of us out here, I am beginning to see people starting to where Black and Gold out in public and with pride.

Hey I work in the 303 and live in the 562!!!!

Saints vs. Patriots, would be a great Superbowl. Two good offenses, Donte' against the Saints, and Randy Moss going up against a team that passed on him in the draft.

Nice, I spent most of my life in the LBC myself. What are you doing all the way in Boulder? I heard the hotel staff is extra friendly out there. Well that's what my friend Kobe tells me. I am looking to start a Black and Gold chapter out here before the Season starts, but I don't know if there are gonna be enough heads to make it work. Seems like too many have been blinded by Black and Silver out here.

PROFOOTBALL wEEKLY--SAME PICK
 

The football preview mags have hit the newstands, first some regional college ones, now ProFootball Weekly's NFL preview mag is out. one fo the better ones I think, along with Sporting News, and maybe StreetandSmiths. anyway, I was quite surprised and delighted to see that very same prediction in their mag. Sainst along with eagles, Bears, and I think Seahawks, to all go 11-5. they have NE, and Indy, and maybe Balt or SD all going 12-4. interesting thing is Saints only have 2 players in their top50 ratings (Bush and Brees). says team effort there i guess.

Saints go to Chicago and win. Prize is homefield for the playoffs. Now that would be sweet revenge.

HERE! HERE!

Saints have a really good chance in making to the SB this year.
I had the Colts making it back to the SB this year but with all the losses on they're defense I changed my mind, I'm picking the Pats making the big game..
I'm interested to see how Moss and Brady will do together this season.

No, Chicago comes to New Orleans, because you see we'll have home field throughout the playoffs and we stomp the yard with'um.

and yes I agree that we meet the Patriots in the Superbowl and we have mind control over Stallworth and let Thomas cover him all game.

Saints win 34-18

I think they are talking about the regular season meeting.

Better would be that the Saints already have home field wrapped up, the second stringers come out to play Chicago, beats them and puts them out of the playoffs in the process. Now that would be sweet!

SFIAH

i had the chargers and saints, but now i'll go with the pats and the saints.

i hate it that the so-called experts picked us cause they are usually wrong.

saints vs pats is a small possibility. But not a likely one. Panthers vs patriots however is almost certain to happen though. Of coarse with a different outcome from super bowl 38.

Don't waste your time trying to get people from L.A. to hook up..
They don't seem to want to be hastled...
Theres a couple of bars in Marina Del Rey and Venice that have some Saint fans that meet...
P.M. me if you want some spots....
BTW..I think a lot of Saint fans in LB meet at the Yankee Doodles there.
(mostly Lamb fans)
