Saints have the best offense bar none. Pass and run great. But they are facing the Vikings D that's darn good ranked #6. Great rushing D to force teams to become one dimensional. One of the best pass rushes to pressure QBs. There won't be 6 seconds and 4 yard pockets like the Cards gave Brees.

Whereas, the Saints D is ranked #25, not good at much except INT's. Most of those INT's came against inexperienced QB's Stafford, Sanchez, Freeman, Henne, and Ryan. Favre has protected the ball all year, so I don't think he's going to collapse against the Saints. I imagine the Saints will stick 8 in the box, like all other teams, so they can stop Peterson. So Rice or Berrian will be singled, which the Cowboys learned was stupid. Vikes live by "damn if you do... damn if you don't"... play the pass the run burns you... play the run and the pass burns you.

As I see it the Vikes Offense is not that far behind the Saints, whereas the Saints D is seriously lacking.

Please bring the excuses...

let me throw something else out for you dorks to chew on

if the saints have the highest scoring defense in the league, doesnt that mean the offense didnt get to touch the ball after those TDs

so not only would our offense not touch the ball, Drews opportunities for TDs went down, our rushing opportunities for TDs went down, our time of possession went down despite our points going up

and most importantly.....OUR DEFENSE PLAYED MORE......our defense was on the field more than any other defense in the league because why? because our offense scored so easily and because our defense scored so easily

now eventually, a team is going to be able to move the ball on our defense because it would be on the field so much

i know its hard for vikings fans to understand something like that, but if you keep trying i know you can get it.....you guys are getting so smart....by the end of this week most of you will probably be able to read!!! im proud of you vikings fans

I was wondering when you were going to chime in, CL. You're slackin', brother. lol

haha everything i would've said you have pretty much already gotten to

i guess i gotta quit being so busy so i can get my punches in too

quit takin all the good points lol
