Fitz, Boldin, and Breaston are excellent receivers. Now with the emergence of Doucet and also having Urban, the Cardinals receivers are even more potent.

Having said that, this Saints' team is not just going to lie down for them. They will have a fight on their hands. The Saints will have a chip on their shoulder and will be inspired in this game. Finally being healthy in the defensive secondary is going to be key. There are some playmakers back there, and they aren't afraid to hit people in the mouth. The Cardinals will definitely have to bring their A-game.

Cant disagree! I watched several Saints games this year and it seems that everytime I did the one thought in my mind was "Damn these guys are for real". This is a match up that I personally have been hoping for. I think these are the two best teams in the NFC if not the NFL. And the two teams have very similar styles. This will be a very good game and I in no way expect the Saints will be laying down for anybody. And I know the Cards wont.
