With the 3rd loss by the 49ers, none of the sports media is talking about the strong possibility of the Saints winning the 2nd seed spot. The 49ers will have huge problems with the Steelers. They loose game #4 & we win the last 3. BINGO..#2seed & a bye. The Saints will not let up as long as there is a chance of getting the #2 seed and the 49ers may not be able to handle the pressure.

Not sure why, but Im very confident that if we can win the #2 seed , Saints will be in another Super Bowl. So its important to me to think of this stuff.

That said, The 49ers might be imploding. Its not uncommon with new coaches, and 49ers now have a 2 game losing streak. If they can't handle Fitzgerald on the Cardinals, then I think PiTT has a great chance of beating them badly, boasting 2 of the fastest WR's in the NFL,,um,,, a 9ft zombi QB that can't be hurt,lol, and a solid defense, better than the Cardinals.

The seahawks are having good games. Winning our game is the most important, we struggle against bad teams like Min, like no one.

But Im starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel, and thinking SF can't actually hold on to the #2 seed, everyone knows they are posers and will get killed in the playoffs. The Ravens vs SF game was like watching 2 old women box, no offense at all.

games of importance to me
1. um ours
2. I think its the MNF game SF vs Pitt
3. failclowns, because who cares if they win or lose, if SF losses and we keep winning we'll have #2 seed. So cantlana has actually lowered in importance to me.

After watching the Seachickens last night, I'm very confident they will beat the ninetyfarters. The crowd is still going to the games and keeping it loud and their defense is playing pretty damn good. It was good to see Hargrove get a sack last night.

Hags win this weekend and they are 7-7 and have the head-head on Chicago.

Also, the only way the Hags can be eliminated totally before the 49ers game is if they lose to Chicago and both Atlanta and Detroit win.

This has been a very informative thread. This kind of information is why I joined the B&G. We really do have some knowledgeable members.

I much rather this than Saintsreport. Not very informative and they just kept being too liberal for my taste. Like posting videos of why we should allow gay marriage instead of football info. I didn't think I had joined CNN.com.

I would love for San Fransissy to get upset by Seatle. But we all know that T. Jackson ain't gonna to diddly and the winers arent gonna let M. Lynch run for more than 70 yards. Hopefully Seatle's special teams and defense steps up and gets some big plays to give them short fields and just maybe they can pull it off. LETS GO N.O. !!!!

Of their 11 losses, they've come within one score of beating 8 of those 11 teams.

Their worst home loss was by 6 points to Green Bay.

This team can beat us if we're not careful.

I prefer to stay pretty much politics-free from either side, but yes, they are definitely extremely political, and their posters insist on shoving their politics down everyone's throat, not to mention getting extremely ugly and personal with anyone who disagrees with them. Also, their average age must be below 30.

Our guys dont care to get into political pp matches, and like to talk about football, or things we have in common instead. I think our average age is about 40.

back on topic: I cant help but feel, and Bobby Hebert says this also, that the Titans game was our biggest potential stumbling block. You know we're going to be up for the Falcons, and up for the Panthers. Take care of business, and #2 is OURS.

The 49ers do not have a 2 game losing streak; they have lost 2 of their last 3. They lost to Baltimore, then beat the Rams at home, before losing to Arizona.

Both the Saints' and 49ers' remaining schedules are not necessarily easy, but the 9ers have the more difficult schedule for the last 3 games of the regular season. The 9ers have the Steelers at home, then Seattle in Seattle, and the Rams in St. Louis. The Saints have the Vikings in Minnesota, then home games against Atlanta and Carolina.

Even though I didn't think it would happen, I think the Saints are actually in a better position to get the #2 seed now than the 49ers are.
