Hmmmm....
 

Yet the 49ers are taking solace in the fact that the Saints have indeed been stopped this year. New Orleans has lost three times, including a 31-21 loss in October to the woeful Rams, who provided a bit of a blueprint for what the 49ers need to do, says San Francisco defensive lineman Justin Smith. The Rams sacked quarterback Drew Brees six times and dictated the pace of the game on defense.

Can the Saints take solace in that the 49ers have also been beaten 3 times this year??? :D

This aint the Rams' Saints! No resemblance whatsoever.

Alaska

Taking solace in a loss 9 games ago? :roll:

Both teams are hot - We need a good game. Limit the TOs - maybe pick up a couple for ourselves.

The run game the pass game & special teams all need to be on.

This happens we win.

Brilliant. That blueprint will be 76 days old come Saturday. All I can say is go ahead and use it. Maybe it's something the 9 teams since them totally missed.

Yes. But there is much more about the 9ers to inspire confidence in our team.

How about we got as many points from interceptions as the 49ers have this season?

Or, how about this comparison in ranking?
