He is not our boy, if you read his posts he plays both sides of the fence..

Re: Running attack vs. Seahawks defense. Thoughts?

Our run game suffers because it is so predictable. I don't need to tell you guys what that means.

They've been studying the SAME Saints run-game film and they know the patterns. If we stick to them, Drew will have a long day because his adjustments at the snap will be limited. (Crowd noise)

We will need TWO key takeaways to win this game and our D needs to stay off the field.

The fan-impact-plays for the Seahawks will get the best of us if we don't change the way we have been doing business.

SHOCK and AWE

Excellent analysis but that isn't what you said in the other and I quote: I disagree. Most of the advantages are in the Saints favor.

Last time the teams played in regular season, the Saints spanked the Seattle 34-19 in 2010, and 28-17 in 2008. Yes, Seattle won the playoff game in 2010 but I think that we'd all agree that game was clearly an aberration. Seattle just got lucky that day.

Seattle has a midget for a QB who has never played in a MNF game before. That's huge. Think "deer in the headlights scared". They also run that Read Option gimmick offense because Wilson can't stay in the pocket and throw the ball effectively like Drew Brees.

Seattle doesn't have a TE who is anywhere near as productive as Jimmy Graham. Hell, Zach Miller even seldom gets to go out for a pass because he's needed to stay on the line and block due to Seattle's inconsistent and weak O-line.

And Seattle's so-called "Legion of Boom" is currently decimated by the injury to Brandon Browner and the fact that his back-up, Walter Thurmond, will be out due to a 4-game suspension.

The Saints have the advantage in this game.

Anyone who tells you different is fooling only themselves.

You are a TROLL!!

WHOA

Feel free, Seahawks12th, to build yourself a "family crest" like Slomotion and include Black and Gold!

This post made my day!

I was there in '08 and again in '10. They were two entirely different experiences for me but the only consistent element was that the 12th man was LOUD but also CLASSLESS. It's a shame, really, because a team deserves a crowd like yours, but visiting fans do not.

Well, whether you claim him or not and considering he showed up with the rest of Seahawk posse, he's one of yours ... 'kudos' just the same, :mrgreen:.
