Don't forget Tabasco sauce...

Rugby Saint II

I believe............in this team at home.

I'm hoping the best QB in the game (my .02 cents) has an 'off night'.

I dunno, I feel good about this game coming up. People are going to be surprised. I reckon it is the beginning of ALL THINGS!

Aaron Rodgers is going to carve the D up

It will (once again) come down to turnovers and how many times our offense fumbles or throws interceptions

Brees will likely throw 2 picks regardless.

I say we blow them out... we are due!

No way we should be favored. If I was in Vegas this weekend I would consider this a lock if I was not being a bias Saints fan.

Truth is we should lose this game by double digits. I just dont have faith in the leadership (coaches and players) of this team to turn it around.

Payton and the Saints' streak of 13 straight prime-time home games is on the line. And 16 of their last 17 home night games.

It will really be more about that -- whether we as fans can continue to rely on the dominance of Drew and Sean and the gang at home, under the bright lights, on a big stage, more than it will be a verdict on the whole season.

We could easily lose Sunday and still be in the same exact situation we're in now, where everyone else keeps losing and limping along, and we're still in the hunt in a battle of mediocrity in our division and conference. So I'm not stressing out about scenarios or tiebreakers or who is doing what in the division, AT ALL, until another month or so goes by. I just want to see if Payton and Brees and this team still have it in them to put on the three-ring football circus that we know and love.

LSU will probably lose to Ole Miss, and most folks will just keep drinking straight through....win or lose in Baton Rouge on Saturday, the Dome will be riotous and rocking on Sunday, for sure. And a marquee matchup in prime time, with Halloween starting to creep in to Bourbon Street and the Quarter, lots of visiting cheese heads -- it doesn't get much better than that.

I'm looking for ENTERTAINMENT. I want to love this team again. I'm ready. I don't think I've been this pumped about a home night game since the Steelers in 2010, and that was a game for the ages.

Rogers is going to abuse our defense, sorry. It would be different if we could get some kind of pressure on him, but we know that answer.

However, in a shoot-out I like the Saints in the Dome, providing the O-line doesn't have Brees running for his life.

Mardigras9,
I hear you loud and clear on Rogers but as you eluded to earlier, the key is pressure. Our D actually improved last week and I saw positives (rush D/Lofton was extremely productive). The occasional blitz from C White was effective. Cam and Gallette MUST step up in a big way.

I do think this Saints team will rise to the occasion in prime time.

At least Terry MacCuly (sp) and crew aren't refereeing this game.
