Last year was last year. Last years game has little to nothing to do with this years game.
Revenge in a game only comes into play when the team who lost got BETTER and the team who WON got worse. I dont believe that Minny got better and that Saints got worse.
The reason that last years game is COMPLETELY irrelevant is because of the fact that is was at the END of the season meaning the teams were at PEAK efficiency level---
This is an example of the old saying--
"Believe nothing you HEAR and only 50% of what you see"
By looking at the NFC CHAMPIONSHIP game only it is the WRONG info to be looking at--
The RIGHT INFO to look at is this--
Saints failed to reach 27 points 3 times last season at HOME--- They got 24 vs the JETS in a WIN and only 17 vs Dallas and Tampa when they were struggling a little at the end of year-
Saints put up over 30 vs every other GOOD team including 45, 31, 31 in the post season--
This pre season BREES has been very sharp- Saitns have scored more than 30 in week 2 and week 3-- Brees threw for 2 tds in a qtr vs Houston- Brees threw for 240 yards in week 3 preseason game vs CHARGERS-- Saints ammassed over 400 yards of offense vs Houston--
Now you bring in a team with a QB who was not in CAMP on time, missing their best receiver who is SHORT in the secondary and expect me to believe they will hold them to under 27 points-
Minnesota was 4-4 on the road last year. They beat the RAMS, Browns, Lions and Bears-- ANy good team beat them handily on the road, including Pittsburgh, Carolina, Bears and Arizona-- All 3 posted more than 30 points and Pittsburgh scored 27 points in their win--
So now what do we really have? We have a mediocre road team who beat GREEN BAY on the road, and lost to every other decent team on the road-
The favre of last year was having a great year and caught fire late in the season, he was hitting RICe all day long, rice is out tonite. Favre was sharper in better shape, faster, more focussed--
COACHING MISMATCH-- Give Brad Childress 3 months to prepare for this game, and give Sean Payton 3 months to prepare for this game- EXPLANATION not even required--
THe saints will score and will get over 27 points tonight-- They are efficient enough on offense, playing a depleted team who was never really that good in reality--
Minnesota was the epitamy of a LUCKY TEAM- The ravens missed a game winning fgoal last year them and the miracle Td vs the 49'ers also was bullshit--
In reality the SAINTS are much better-- AS good as MINNY shut down the SAINTS last season in the playoffs, SAINTS still scored 31 points--
The play is the OVER 27-- i suspect since reading forums that a lot of people are on the UNDER that as usual the FORUMS always lose, and the game goes over because Saints put up in the 30's as they did routinely last season vs any good team--

Minnesota has a great FRONT 7-- No arguing that and last year they have Saints fits--
However they played IMO their A GAME and i cant see them PLAYING as well as last years playoff game in which they gave up 31 points-- Sean Payton will have answers with the right screens and quick passes and protection schemes- Saints O line is the best in the NFC, they allowed the fewest sacks in the NFC--
Minnesota is being given too much respect but the fact remains Minnesota is a good defensive team at HOME, and not on the road-
Saints are dominant at home, and have managed to put up over 27 in each and single home win except for the JETS who they got 24 points--
The JETS that day played really good, I cant see the Vikigns playing like the JETS did last year-- Colts, Cardinals, Giants, Patriots, could not stop the saints and I dont see this Minny team as having what it takes to do it--
At the start of the year the offenses will be MILES ahead of the defenses-- Last year they had 18 weeks of FILM of the SAINTS offense-- This game they have NO FILM, and they are not in SYNCH yet-
I would be shocked if the Saints dont get at least 31 tonight--

I would be surprised if FAVRE doesent turn the ball over with a FUMBLE or two tonight--
Drew Brees has been putting in 12 hours days daily at the SAINTS training facility- He has been studying, working out, running, working on flaws in his game--
His head is into football, we know Sean Payton's head is into football-
This is a team that has a track record of responding at HOME with big WINS vs teams-
I really think Favre is not going to be at GAME speed like he was in week 18 last year- I think his footwork may be a little slow, his conditioning may be a little off and his overall SHARPNESS has to be effected since he was not in camp since 3 weeks ago--
NFL is a game in which I dont really think a 41 year old QB can come in with 3 weeks of practice and be EFFECTIVE- I think the Saints will be given a free 7 points off a TURNOVER that is related to FAVRe being RUSTY and not in complete game shape and not being MENTALLy sharp also--
The work is done on this game, now its in the players hand as always-
THe most important factor in CAPPING is to be looking at the Correct information. I believe I have found the correct information for this game--
The worst mistake cappers make is WHAT they THINK to be TRUE is in fact NOT TRUE- Hence in this game I believe looking at last years NFC title game is the INCORRECT information to be looking at. So much can change in 6 months of time---
The correct info lies in REALITY- If you can think in REALITY you will win well over 60% of your plays because REALITY always puts you in the RIGHT frame of mind and PRODUCES WINNERS at a staggering rate.
