Everybody is talking about how great New Orleans offense is but did you know that the Saints defense has allowed just 12.6 points over the last five games.
Nov 26 (http://www.nfl.com/scores/2006/week12) @Atlanta (http://www.nfl.com/teams/news/ATL) Won 31-13 (http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/recap/NFL_20061126_NO@ATL)
Dec 3 (http://www.nfl.com/scores/2006/week13) San Francisco (http://www.nfl.com/teams/news/SF) Won 34-10 (http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/recap/NFL_20061203_SF@NO)
Dec 10 (http://www.nfl.com/scores/2006/week14) @Dallas (http://www.nfl.com/teams/news/DAL) Won 42-17 (http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/recap/NFL_20061210_NO@DAL)
Dec 17 (http://www.nfl.com/scores/2006/week15) Washington (http://www.nfl.com/teams/news/WAS) Lost 10-16 (http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/recap/NFL_20061217_WAS@NO)
Dec 24 (http://www.nfl.com/scores/2006/week16) @N.Y. Giants (http://www.nfl.com/teams/news/NYG) Won 30-7 (http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/recap/NFL_20061224_NO@NYG)
Did you know that the Saints have scored 30+ points seven times this season including 4 of the last 5. How does this compare to the Cowboys past five?
Saints Blowouts This Season
Saints 30, Giants 7
Saints 42, Cowboys 17
Saints 34, 49ers 10
Saints 31, Falcons 13
Saints 31, Bucs 14
Saints 23, Falcons 3
I don't think Carolina can beat us at home next week regardless if Dallas wins Christmas, so good luck Cowboy fans, and have a
Happy Holidays and Season Greetings
See you in the NFC Championship game.

Like I've said before.. NO played their best game in franchise history against us, and we played one of our worst. We didn't even have an opportunity to get in our gameplan.

Props to Gary Gibbs. I'm happy for him. Especially after he supposedly had a semi-rough time here.

We got caught up in Christmas shopping. LOL
Seriously though.. you are right. After Washington, I didn't have anything to say. :cool: Oh yea... Congradulations on beating Atlanta. With that win and our loss to Washington, it is fun again to see who gets the first round bye.
Saints Fans Last Week.

Our heads are out the sand now.
We only have to win one.
You have to win two and hope we lose.

Well, how many of those teams, besides us, have a top 10 offense? or Defense?
Of the teams you beat, besides us, have a winning record?

ill agree that the saints guy is clearly instigating here..but i never bought the record theory. Our schedule isnt that much better than theirs..The saints are 3-1 against our division so i think they would probably be still good with our schedule.
Also..we consider ourselves a quality opponent i hope, and we were demolished. The scrutiny of whether the saints have played anyone should have went out of the window when the cowboys (a division winner i hope) agreed to pose for their highlight reel.

better yet, if Parcells was half as smart as people think he is, we'd have kept Gibbs and dumped Zimmer...imagine what Gibbs could do with the guys we have now

its basically the same group of teams we have been playing
but they havent got beaten 42-17 at home by any of them, nor did they give up 4 td passes to one of the worst passers in the league (Vick)

Yeah we had a couple of bad games. No arguement there. BUT he was gassing on about the saints and I pointed out they had not beaten anyone else but us with a winning record or a top O or D. They had not beaten someone like Baltimore, SD, etc- the top teams in the NFL this year.

have we? we beat Indy...big whoopee...alot of other teams are doing the same and Indy wasnt playing much better than average when we played them
on the other hand I see losses to Jacksonville, NYG (home), at Philly, Wash and New Orleans
right now we have two wins over teams with winning records (Indy, Tennessee)
I really dont see how anyone can argue that the Saints arnt legit but that somehow we are

Last I checked you get the same record from beating Green Bay as you do for beating Indy.
You guys beat Philly and next week for keeps. That is your ultimate revenge. You have to win two, we have to win one. I like my odds.
Go Saints.
