[QUOTE="Bogart, post: 402759, member: 3900"] From history, we should know, the defending Super Bow champions every year [I]have a target on their back[/I] Last year, the Saints were out played by many teams that they could have easily blown out, and even lost to teams that couldn't even win 8 games. The Steelers back in 2009 point the finger at injuries, but they also lost games they could have won, because everyone wants to beat the defending champs. The Giants won 12 games coming off their Super Bowl victory, but look at the team that handed them their first loss. The Browns only won 2 games after blowing out the defending champs of that year, because that one game totally made their season, it didn't matter to them after that, they had that one game to brag about the entire season despite losing 12 games. If you have a chance to give the defending Super Bowl champions their first loss, that's just enough motivation in itself to give them a lights out performance, and so far that is what everyone has done. I don't take this game lightly. The Vikings almost beat us a few weeks ago, yet that seems to be forgotten by now, but this is also divisional. Divisional games, I don't care if you're undefeated and playing a winless team, a divisional opponent has more chance of beating you than any other team, because they know you from playing you twice a season. While everyone is thinking this is going to be a blow out thanks to the Vegas spread sheets, I'm actually worried about this game, because it's divisional. [/QUOTE]
