Which regular season game are you anticipating the most?

The 49ers are a much improved team over last year too. Brandon Jacobs, Mario Manningham, Randy Moss, and several other offensive upgrades. We all saw what their D looked like and I don't see them regressing there. We cannot just assume we would have beaten NY even at home.The Giants are a completely different team in the playoffs than they are in the regular season, and they had some serious momentum and emotion going their way. I think we could have beat them too, but a lot of people seem to think that game would have been a given, and in no way would it have been.

Yeah, we all saw what their D looked like: they generated 5 turnovers, and still the Saints hung 32 points on them at their muggy field.

Yeah, Brandon Jacobs, the guy who rushed for 46 yards against the Saints last season.

Yeah, Mario who?

Yeah, Randy Moss, who last was a factor in 2007.

Yeah, the whiners are SO scary coming into New Orleans...

As for beating the Giants.. when you get spanked 49-24 and 48-27 and are overpowered on national TV in consecutive games the way the Saints overpowered the Giants, if you again have to go into the same venue against the same team, I don't care how "emotional" you are, how much of a professional you are, the other teams already has the upper hand on you.

Oh, and yes, I want the Saints to hang 40-50-60 on the whiners and bury Smith in the turf.
