Hey! I'm rooting for the Seahawks to be the upset of the week! Don't know why. I guess I'm just tired from a year of Brees this, Saints that, etc etc etc.

Do I think it is the way it will be? Well, no. But as long as the Seahawks are in the game, I'll be watching.

I just want to know what would happen if the Seahawks win, you guys think the re-seeding talk will die down, I know it will die down if they lose since it would be worrying about nothing since they lost but I wonder what would happen if they would win.

I'm not sure it's going to die down either way. If they win and the Saints manage a lot of false starts due to crowd noise, or waste their time outs due to the same, or something along those lines, that they can say this is why the Saints lost and the Seahawks go on to get demolished in their next game...well, I think it might bring more life to the reseeding talk.

Well obviously the Saints will win their game (they have the easiest wildcard out of everybody). I'll be a Colts fan for the second game,because I rather we face NE than Pitt. I'm picking us over the Chiefs though it might be a close game.And I think the Eagles will beat the Packers.

not neccessily, the saints have a few players not in this game..the s[i]<ea>[/i]hawks could pull off the upset, especially if they get up early with a kickoff return

[cursona pirate]

seahawks game is going to be cool

Man, the regular season went by WAAAAY too fast...

I obviously like our chances against Kansas City, but as for AT Pittsburgh, New England, or Indianapolis...and we'll have to play against at least two of these teams and their home stadiums...oi vey, might be a repeat of 2009...or 2008...or 2001...

Our First Game of Wild Card Weekend is almost here! Let's get excited.... it's the playoffs!

I still haven't decided on who I want to win between Colts/Jets because I have no idea who I rather face in the divisional round.

I'm excited. I took my wife and her in-laws shopping and tired them out. Made it back just in time for the star of wild card weekend.

If they're all tired out who's gonna bring you your frosty beer and nachos?

It's not wild card weekend without said items.

Myself. You need to tire them out or else they'll want to do something else. I kept pushing them and pushing them.

[PuRock]

Saints moved the ball pretty easily there. If Bush wouldn't have bobbled that pass, that drive would've ended in a TD.

Horrible play calling by the Seahawks.. It's going to be a looong day!

I just don't know how the Seahawks will make this game competitive. You just can't turn the ball over at all against a high powered offense, especially on the first drive.

Very true. There's a high chance this game will be over by half time..

That commercial with the Steelers fans celebrating their Superbowl victory (In Troy P jerseys) just pissed me off.

[PuRock]

Looks like we can't write of the Seahawks early. That was a huge answer drive for them.

[ravens__]

Wow.. I had no clue Seahawks' FB was the same Robinson who once was a QB in Penn State. He has added quite some bulk.

[JohnJohnson]

Doesn't look like the Seahawks D can stop them. They're just gonna have to keep up.

Yeah, it looks like the Saints are moving the chains at will on offense.

Did not know that either. Just told my wife that who is a Penn State alum and she was amazed he's a FB as well.

Yep. This next drive for the Seahawks will be big. It will show if they will be able to keep up or not. Because the Seahawks do not have an answer for the spread.

Hasselbeck has playoff experience, and they know that they have to be aggressive. It's not out of the question. A couple of turnovers would help.

anyone getting butterflies for tomorrow yet.

Nah. This game I feel good about. I'm sure I'll get the butterflies in the 4th Qtr though.

[JohnJohnson]

Holy crap! That ball was in the air forever!

[ravens__]

By the way, who do you guys want to win later today? Jets or Colts?

[JohnJohnson]

And the Seahawks are keeping up! I imagine some Saints fans are getting butterflies now.

[BohBalmerOsbohs]

nice drive

If that happened against us, Ed Reed would be +1 in INTs.

Big drive for the Seahawks, looks like we have a shootout and the Hawks are going to join it.

[codizzle]

Get em seahawks.. Would love to see this upset lol
