[QUOTE="ExpatPacker, post: 413978, member: 5535"] I agree with much of what you say Bogart. Saints are a better road team than given credit for, but they are not a good cold weather team. Saints fans look at the first game of the season and are chomping at the bit to come up to Lambeau again and beat us. Guess what? There's a big difference between balmy September and frigid January. Although Saints have the better overall offense (better OL, better running game at least for now), I'll take the GB defense over the Saints defense. It's not just the turnover differential, it's the pass defense. Saints did a good job of stopping the run against TEN but I don't see any decent pass rush or a quality secondary on their part. Why have Rodgers' numbers gone down a little over the last couple of weeks? Giants and Raiders both put pressure on Rodgers. I don't think the Saints can do that, and no way is their secondary as good as the Packers' secondary. Also I mean come on, defensing the Titans was not difficult. Titans have a mediocre passing attack at best, so the Saints could key on stopping the run, which they did. I love Drew Brees and I respect the Saints. Brees is having a great season and we do not have the decisive advantage at the QB position. And one more thing. The way Ryan Grant ran the ball against the Raiders was major-league encouraging. If that can continue then watch out. [/QUOTE]
