Opening Day!

I guess the fact that it worked didnt make any difference to you?

Joining in this one late and haven't read the whole thread, but I think the fact that the Saints have been in this very game twice before and the fact that they had far more off-season preparation gives them an advantage.

That said, I feel my Saints are the better team top to bottom and with the aforementioned will take the game. I can't venture a guess on final score, but I'll put the Saints on top.

For who? I respect any Saint fan that comes on here and doesn't post smack. There have been a number of classy ones that have posted here. I have no problem with them. For example, this Guido guy.

go eat a grilled cheese samich

Thanks for the support. As I mentioned in my intro thread, I was a Packers fan back in the 60's. But then, I moved to Louisiana in 1967 and found out we were getting a new team. Bingo! I have spent 4/5th's of my life as a Saints fan and finally won. I have nothing but respect for the Packer fans, but I do feel we are the better team overall.

Well all talk aside, good luck and may the best team win!

Hey that's cool. I actually like the Saints... I think your team and city went through a lot. You think the Saints are the better team and I think the Pack is. That's natural.. Go Pack

Nice first drive

Answered by Brees. Not going to be easy for Pack.

42-17? Get out.

Well, he had the 42 right. Just picked the wrong horse to ride.

Lol whodey?

And what do the Bengals have to do with this game?

Dat.

Both offenses looked fantastic. As I said, our special teams coverage was unacceptable. And so was yours, I guess. Both defenses look like they have some work to do. What a shootout that was!

I love the smell of grilled cheese in the morning, it smells like......victory.
Now have a little bite of this crow.

Well you got the 42 part right.

No need for me to rub it in.
Actions speak louder than words and the Packers did plenty of talking for me beating the Saints.

Thats who the aints reminded me of

What are the chances the OP comes back to this board to eat his huge amount of crow......

Wow...what a game. I have NO voice today. Make no mistake, the Saints are a good team. Officiating be damned, those guys did whatever they wanted in the second half. Still and the same... a win is a win.

Incidentally, navigating Lambeau and the entire stadium district was a complete and utter cluster -uck. I'm happy I recorded this game. ) Go Pack.

Saints are a good football team. I hope we don't have to play them again.

Definitely have to give the Saints props. They really made this a nail biter. It's probably good for us that their starting DE was suspended. I hope we get our special teams coverage fixed before we see them in the playoffs.

Yes but we were missing our Stud DE as well.

The clock is ticking

My score prediction for Thursday's game:

Green Bay - 42
New Orleans - 34

Oh wait... it was last night? Well, at least I got the score right!
