To this day I'd pull for Carolina or Tampa to beat the 49ers, if it doesn't harm my Saints in the standings.

Teams I hate most...
1. Anyone that stands in the way of my Saints, a Win, or playoff seeding.
2. Atlanta
3. 49ers
4. Thats enough hate for two people, so I'll just leave it at that.

The only way I'd ever pull for the Falcons or 49ers is if their winning helped the Saints. I'd just like to look at it as pulling against the other team.

If the Falcons and the 49ers play each other I pray for the stadium to fall apart and have the teams both hurt but no one killed.

I spent too many years with the 49ers beating us to EVER pull for them, even if they played Atlanta. Too bad there is not a way for both to lose, unless the whole stadium thing can happen.

Re: I'm afraid we're in trouble.

Two teams I'll always hate are the Falcons and the Cowboys.. Others come and go. I hated the 49ers when we were in the same division but at the same I liked most of their players. In fact I pulled for them once we were eliminated. They're definitely back on my hate list though.

That's what's kinda crazy. I haven't always disliked the failcons so much and I even pull for the panthers and yucks from time to time, if they're playing the coyboys or chargers or eagles. I can't figure out how I got like this.

INCREDIBLE game! I hope the Saints don't do that to me every week! I didn't know I could go that long without breathing!

Re: I'm afraid we're in trouble.

That team we played yesterday was in the NFC Championship game just last year. There's no reason for ordering next year's Super Bowl ring yet, but you can't play the "it's only preseason against the Raiders, I'm still not impressed" card, on a win like that. It was big.

The thing I felt was, look at the overall flow of the game: stuff got harder and harder for the Falcons offense to do, as the game went on, and it definitely got easier for the Saints offense to do what they wanted to do. THAT is how a game is supposed to look, especially a defense.

I'm always happy for a win, no matter how we do it, and yesterday's win was an INCREDIBLE start to the season. The defense played well enough to win and that's important, but I'm still worried about the offense. 23 points doesn't win a lot of games in a league that's getting more and more like Arena Football. There were a lot of low scoring games yesterday though. Next up is the yucks who totally shot themselves in the foot yesterday and pulled defeat out of the jaws of victory with an insanely stupid play, but the kind of play we've become accustomed to with schiano as their head coach.. We'll know more this time next week.

The offense will get in sync and get their timing together; Drew's too competitive not to.

Re: I'm afraid we're in trouble.

I can't believe someone is actually worried about our offense. Our offense. Really?

Well come to think of it, it's not surprising at all. What's next on the checklist to complain about?
