No BS responses, I know you all think we are dumb swamp rats...blah blah blah

Why do you guys really feel so strongly the Colts will destroy us?

I personally think we lose, but cover the spread. But all the posts I've seen on here sound like we will get killed.

I think we have a better running game, and can possibly play the ball possession game with them; thus keeping it close. Brees nor Peyton will make mistakes so neither side will have a ton of turnovers (Bush can be the X factor either way, with big plays or fumbles). Peyton will get his; he will throw from anywhere from 280 to 320 yards the question is can we hold them to field goals. That being said, Brees will throw for similar yardage.

I don't think our D can lock them down, but am hoping so. So let me have it, why will the Colts win?

I think that with Freeney out or all gimped up, it will be close. I don't think that the Saints will get blown out, but Peyton is just too damn good. Plus Caldwell & Co have had plenty of time to gameplan around Freeney's injury which helps big time. If he went down 1st quarter, that'd be a tough adjustment on the fly.

Their Defense is better than yours.

Manning has beaten Defenses that are way better than yours.

Agreed, our D is average at best.

But can't you say the same about Brees?

Because Peyton Manning is better than Drew Brees.

I actually think the Saints win.

Colts defense isn't great, and saints will be able to run the ball keeping manning off the field

it's the only chance we have...Manning will not pull a Favre and cough it up

peyton manning is the reason. he is the best QB in the game and can win games all by himself. he is at his smartest right now and has enough talent around him to get the job done. the defense may be weakened but so is the saints. saints might be able to score a lot but peyton and the colts can score a lot more when they need to.

when your DC's best strategy is to injure the opposing QB then that will tell you something. that is the best and only real hope the saints have. i have little doubt that they are hoping for that to happen soon in the game and they probably won't care that they will forever have an asterisk by their name if they do knock peyton out of the game.

lucky for the saints, the colts want to win it legitimately.

Manning actually has a history of not playing that well in the playoffs so I don't know he will be dominant by any means. On the other hand he has been there before and Bress has not. With all the hype that the saints have to win for the city and after 40 yuears of trying, it places alot of pressure on them.

In the end defense and turnovers will make the difference. I think Brees actually has a history of thrwing the ball up more than Manning and expecting the receivers to get it. So the secondaries will be heavily tested. The Saints do have a better running game but i don't think it will play a big part in the game unless the score is low. If there is a scoring fest then passing will rule the day.

I give the slight edge to Indy due to experience and not giving up big plays averaging surrendering only 10 points a game on defense in the playoffs.

    • It's your right to refer to it as vague, but it still flouts the theory of "zero evidence" that Tepper is changing. Here's another: "Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan are reportedly being given a larger leadership role within the organization. Panthers owner David Tepper 'has taken a more hands-off approach of late,' according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. 'He's trying to trust Canales and GM Dan Morgan to get it right, knowing that the roster requires patience in its current state,' Fowler wrote. 'We shall see if he holds to that.'" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10146782-report-panthers-david-tepper-has-taken-a-more-hands-off-approach-to-team   ""David Tepper just wants to win and he's gonna supply everything that we need to win.. Things are changing around here and things are looking really positive" ~ Dan Morgan  https://x.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1917639137550627107?t=6vgo8yXTO6eD0Gb55hyzNg&s=19   From about 2:15-6:35, Julian Council, Locked on Panthers, gives his take on whether Tepper seems to be changing (and specifically referenced the war room in his analysis):    Dean Jones of Cat Crave on David Tepper in the war room. "He was an innocent bystander throughout a hugely important decision, placing full trust in Morgan and Tilis to make the right call." Jones also quoted Pat McAfee: "What I noticed though, at one point, they looked at (David) Tepper to get an answer, Tepper didn’t say sh*t. All anybody has said about Tepper is that he’s hands-on, hands-on, hands-on. Too handsy, too involved. He’s not letting the football people do their thing. We just watched in the biggest moment for their franchise, a top ten pick, he just sat there and let everybody do their jobs. I think if you’re a Panthers fan, you love everything you saw there." https://catcrave.com/silence-from-david-tepper-becomes-panthers-loudest-victory Granted, you're not getting a major headline here, but that's not going to happen anyway. Fowler isn't exactly a nobody, everybody knows McAfee, and you also have some locals that follow the team (including Dean Jones). Of course you have a right to believe that Tepper hasn't really changed, but to say there is no evidence that he just may be changing is not really true. It's just not. Hate the guy, but the way that he has handled this current regime is different than he handled previous teams, and his silence in the war room and publicly in general is different than years back.
    • Ehhh im not mad either way I don't think hes garbage but he was and is overpaid.... but he was a skating turnover machine.
    • My interpretation of his comments was somewhat different. And I took issue with his contract the day he signed. But it's all history now and doesn't matter in the big picture.
