2013 in the Dome? The Mayans missed the date by a few months then. If the Saints win the SB in the Dome, it's over, New Orleans would erupt and we will all go down partying on the ship.

Well, from a casual bystander who doesn't necessarily have a dog in this fight, or do I?. I think Sproles gives you guys an edge over the Packers . . . can you win if you have to go to Lambeau though? I think so . . . of course, you gotta' win a couple before you find out.

go Lions.

One play at a time. Then we have to watch our Defense and then our Offense. Don't look at tomorrow when you haven't finished today.

I think that the Saints are better suited to play on Lambeau Field in winter conditions than the Packers are. The Saints have a three great RB's to the Packers two average RB's. But... home field is a big advantage as evidenced by the Saints 8-0 home games this year averaging over 40 points in each game.

Good post, Slo Mo. I am more concerned about the Lions than I am about the 49ers. But I have a hunch the Saints will take both.

Collinsworth's comments are inane, as usual.

BULL, the Green Bay Packers are a version of the New Orleans Saints, PERIOD.They have copied what we do not the other way around.
