The Falcons won't turn the ball over 7 times. We may not turn the ball over once. The Saints defense isn't suddenly going to go from 32nd to top 10. They are going from facing the most turnover prone team to the least.

Our defense has also been improving every game. We just held a top 5 offense to 1 TD and only got 1 sack and no interceptions. That's freaking impressive. And our offense just knows how to score when needed this year.

The Falcons just have something special this year. We're going into NO's home and I'm not the least bit pessimistic like I use to be in the past. Before this year I would be subconsciously worried, thinking we have to play our very best and NO play their worst for us to stand a chance. But not this year. I honestly believe we are better and should win this game.

The Saints only forced two turnovers against the Eagles. They did, however, get seven sacks on Vick.

Falcons vs. Katrina Refs is always going to be a struggle.

Not an excuse by any means, its just how it is, ask the Chargers, or the Bucs, or any other team the Saints have faced since 2006.

Agreed. That Chargers game this year was crazy. There were about 3-4 media guys on ESPN radio that agreed the calls seemed to go the Saints way.

The Green Bay game was bad too but wasn't talked about much because GB overcame it and won.

It's one thing for an obviously biased bunch like Falcons fans to see it but for an unbiased media group to see it confirms it for me.

Eagles and Saints game was so good.... I didn't bother to watch it.

Watching 2 piss poor teams... it's like watching the Browns and Rams.

One of those two piss poor teams is going to beat the Falcons for the 11th time in the last 13 games this Sunday.

And, I am still hoping some of you would make it so I can buy you a drink on Saturday or Sunday before or after the game.

Oh, and I never miss a Falcons game even if I have to DVR it because I like to stay familiar with your team.
