As of now what other teams in the NFC scare you the most this year.
I believe the 9ers are going to be the only thing that stands between us and the Super Bowl. With the addition of Manningham, Moss and Jacobs not to mention other key players they signed this offseason as well as their defense they are going to be tough as nails. The only team out there that really scares me.

I would say the 40-whiners and the Packers.
Both teams are good enough they will beat you if you don't play your best for the entire game. If you are talking about playoffs, any team we have to play on the road for obvious reasons!! History is not on the side of Moss being a constructive team mate for SF. I believe the Saints have upgraded the defense well enough that teams won't be able to run against us. |
Is "none of the above" an option?
|
Only if you live in a fantasy world.
I doubt the Saints 'feared' the Rams last year, and it cost them their 2nd Super Bowl championship and could potentially cost them another one this year. |
The Packers. They have an offense that can keep up with the Saints.
|
None !

I ain't skeered. If I was I'd call 'da law...

You know...I really don't know what is going to happen this year. If things do go south (knock on wood) then it won't be like there will be people scratching their heads trying to figure out what happened to cause it.
I think that the key will be protecting Drew. If he is continuously pressured he becomes an average QB...like Brady or any other NFL QB. Defensively you have Spags coming in with a new scheme. When the Giants won the SB with him as DC, they struggled a lot during the regular season. People were open all over the place. If Tuck and Osi could have been slowed down, they probably wouldn't have gone too far. I don't know if the Saints have a Tuck and Osi on the roster. It will definitely be interesting, however. The team that would scare me would be the Giants limping into the playoffs and having to win everything on the road. Everybody and his brother said that it was a huge break that the Giants did not have to go through NO last year...and I agree...but I think it would be a great game to watch this year if it did end up with the Giants and the Saints playing a playoff game in the dome. |
Don't count out the Lions. If Stafford stays healthy again they're a very good team on both sides of the ball. I'll worry about the 9ers if Smith starts the season with the same success he had last year. I tend to believe that he won't. I think last year was the exception rather than the rule with him. But time will tell.

49ers for me.
As others have said the loss to the Rams cost us badly last year. At home we are favourite against anyone on the road and it goes the other way. |
I think Green Bay and/or SanFran in the second round are the preseason pick as the biggest threats to the Saints ... it escapes me, but Green Bay has done something to shore up their defense, otherwise my pick would have just been SanFran ... I almost included the Giants, but I agree that they lucked out not having to go through NO last season on their way to the SuperBowl ... my comic-relief pick is the Minnesota Vikings, :lol:.
|
I'm saying Green Bay, any team with a losing record, rg's legal team, and the team of replacement refs.
|
49ers, Pack, Eagles.
Lions are beginning to self destruct. |

I think the Lions will be good and tough. I think the Eagles could choke again. |
Cowboys, Eagles, Giants, Lions, Packers, Bears, and 49ers concern me the most.

They're still young and strong, but I know what you mean. Personally think their head coach needs to tighten up that ship, discipline-wise, if he's capable. |

I am not that worried about the 40 whiners. I think they come back to earth this year. Last year they caught people by surprise with how good there defense was. There offense was mediocre the entire season. Alex Smith is who he has been his entire career, hot and cold.
I'd like to think the Lions but I don't think they did enough on D. There offense isn't going to surprise anyone this year. I'd lean more to the Eagles this year. If they can manage to stay healthy, they could be a force. |
The Saints are the scariest team out there!
|
I don't know about scared but the Packers are the team to beat this year followed closely by the Niners. The Lions I think are a step behind and are going to be dangerous as long as Stafford is healthy. There's always a chance that the Eagles and the Cowboys will get their **** together enough to be a threat in the playoffs and you can't discount what the Giants have accomplished even if we have owned them over the last few years.
I think they're all scared of US! |

Scare? Not so much scare but I am very weary.
Comes in 3 sections. 1. Generally - Green Bay Packers, 49ers. (Much respect to the ever improving Detroit Lions and to the defending Giants). 2. the Vikings and Rams scare me because their lesser performances could scupper our seeding in the playoffs. 3. Anyone we meet in the playoffs. |
There are a number of decent teams out there, but the team the Saints should be most worried about is: The Saints.
If they can stay out of their own way and avoid games like they had against the Rams last year, they'll be great. As far as other teams go, the Packers are the only team that concerns me at all, but like any given week, I think if the Saints show up on both sides of the ball they won't lose that game. |
Road teams
