Minnesota at New Orleans (01/24/2010)

Saintsfan504 my Whodatnation brotha, Bkg1010 I believe is a Saints fan. He happens to be a bigger fan of his money and that does not make him a non Saints Backer. I'm not trying to back him up but just clarifying that I believe that he is a true fan. I'm sure that he is betting that the Saints win a close game and that might just happen. We need all the support in a positive way towards each Brotha so it may carry to our team you dig?. Who dats will win but just how much? I personally think that it will be by 17-20 points. I have done my #'s and that is what I got. Once again I will say to all that one thing must be takin into consideration when placing a bet.

        "SAINTS PLAY UP TO THEIR OPPONENTS"

I don't think I need to explain that at all, but for those that need a little clarification: Saints play better against better teams. Good example is the Patriots game when the Pats were hot. This is where each player shines and play 150% of effort for each play. That is a fact unarguable. Unchallenge when saying that their arsenal of play-makers is without a doubt untouchable.

 Count me in on the no post bet....If I'm wrong on my pick for this game I promise not to post anything about football starting on February 8th 2010 until Ocotber 2010.

I also wager a billion dollars that this thread will be filled with covers members talking crap about each other.....

Aloha!

bigdaddyhpd, I'm guessing you are on the force on the Big Island of Hawaii (The most Spiritual and Mana giving Island ). I might be wrong broddah but if I'm right, Mahalo's for your services in making our home safer for da Keiki's.

I would be more than happy to put you on the team on the "NO POST BET" although the "No Posting" starts after the game this Sunday. Like I told Breakabookie, I like your capping but I really believe in my manao dat you stay on da wrong team on dis one bully. This is a SU bet, no spreads being that they are equal in many eyes.

"One of the biggest reason why I think that the Saints will win aside from other factors is that Saints play up to their opponents."What that simply means is that, the better the team, the better they perform.

  Good example, beginning of the season they fucked up the Eagles in Philly and covered the over by themselves after the publics perspective of the Eagles being a top notch team with their performance last year and the addition they had to their team. Same with the "G" men after that. Then came Patriots who was red hot that came to the Super Dome and got durshed brah. I mean these guys are scary and very intimidating for any team. Brett and Co. can deny fear all they want but knowing that they have beaten the Saints every year since 2001 knows deeep down that the "Who Dats" are looking not only for the "W" but a huge revenge factor is definitely in play. Everyone on the team has been ordered to bulk up this year from a great source so that they can play a more agressive style especially in the running game. Look at last weeks performance by Bush. The guy went "NUTS" and you cant deny that.

  Their front line on offense has done better than any team in the playoffs. They are big and smart and know what they have to do. Our running backs and Half backs is second to none on picking up the blitz to give Brees the time that he needs.

   Darren Sharper will pick INT'S and reading the plays all day that he has practiced against many times in the past. He is rated #3 at this time but after this game, I have no doubt that he will move to #1 on Bretts account. I hope no one takes me serious when I talk shit about the guy, cause I have all the respect for someone my age to be doing what he is doing right now in the NFL. I just think with HOMEFIELD, and an allstar crew on both sides of the ball, it will be too much for ol' Brett and Co.

Aloha and Mahalo's my broddah

Anyone think the line will drop to 3 before game time?????

I was all over the Vikings last week, but I have a feeling the Saints are going to take this one.  Dont get me wrong I think Minnesota has a solid team and their defense is much better than New Orleans, except when it comes to interceptions. However, I think this game comes down to big plays and I think those big plays are going to come from the Saints. And dont underestimate that homefield advantage.  Plus the saints should be able to set up enough screens to Reggie Bush to keep that pressure from the outside to a minimum.

Im also looking at it like this: The Saints secondary at least has a chance to mess Favre up. Minnesota's secondary is not going to stop anything. Minnesota is going to need Adrian Peterson badly if they are going to win this game.

P.S. Did you know the Saints finished 3rd in the league in interceptions with 26? Did you also know that Brett Favre is the all-time league leader in throwing interceptions? I know he has done a good job of protecting the football this year. But dont be surprised if he throws 2 INTS in this game.

Still debating but right now leaning on SAINTS -3.5

          Vikings "NO POST BET" team needs more players      

 Losing team may not post in any forum after the game. Those that are in the "Shut Up Corner" already from last week are::::::

Breakabookie

Frogs

Vue2499

These guys may not post til the week of the Super Bowl. It is a SU bet.

Not enough is being made of the fact the viking def. is not playing well on the road as of late (giving up just under 30 pts a game ave. last 5 with the team being 1-4 in that stretch) and the fact the D is far from healthy going into this week.

Now the offence has played great home or away and that should continue and must in this game considering their D is playing poorly on the road.

With the vikes D giving up around 30 pts. a game on the road lately, coupled with the fact they are not as healthy now, as they were during those poor perfomances, makes one think, that with that very vulnerable D now facing an offence, that is better than any of those 5 teams that somewhat torched them. A logical assumtion would conclude the saints will score a min.7 pts more than that ave. and probably more like 14 pts more.

There are 2 major intangables in this game

Brett Farve

Reggie Bush returning kicks

Brett is one of those rare ath. that by just stepping on the field makes everyone he plays with a better player, because of the conf. and mojo that he brings his team, when he steps on the field.

Bush looks like he can take any kick that he recieves with about a 10 yard cushion when he catches it all the way, which is not surprising considering his pedegre but now that he looks like he has discovered himself as a running back will only make this saint off. even better.

This my take on this fox rating bonaza of a game.

The vikes have a scary good Off. that plays well anywere and lead by intangable ozing Brett Farve they score plenty in this game.

The vikes D could not be in a worse place on sunday, of any of the other 31 teams they could possibly play. Watching them this year they have a lot of trouble if they cannot get big pressure with their great front 4(prob. missing 1 sun.) and the way the saints O line protects Brees, coupled with the fact they do not have that added half step ad. they do at the noisy met. dome, tends one to believe very few punts will be touching the saints punters foot.

The saints off. looks like a machine right now and with bush running even vs a great viking run D a big play or 2 is more than possible. Last week they played ag. a tired bunch but not a horrible D. and the saints looked unstopable and did most of their damage before those card D injuries occured. It looked like they could have scored 65 pts. if they wanted to before easing up on the peddle late in the 3rd.

The vikes Off. will have a good game vs that saint D but will be slowed down at times by the saint pass rush that looked a bit like the viking pass rush vs the cards.

I think for the vikings to win this game they will have to be +3 om in turnovers and +2 to cover. Which is possible but a lot to ask for.

Final score

SAINTS 45

VIKINGS 27

Good luck to all!!!!!!

Retarded

808pb I'm not trying to stir things up in here but...

1) my no post bet was a joke my bruddah as you can see I stated I basically won't post anything about football once football season is over until football starts again...you can leave me on your no post but it doesn't matter to me.

2) I'm proud of you for being a big fan of your team as I would for anyone else in here but this no post bet is ridiculous. This is a site to help each other out so why would you want members to stop posting  Nobody's perfect...a member might have a game or 2 wrong but that same member might have some really useful info for the next one. breakabookie & vue are pretty good cappers and I really hate to see them not on here posting. Besides people come back on here under different names anyway if they get banned so it's not like they can't.

3) I would love to see your Saints go to the Super bowl as they have been a team that had fans with paper bags over their heads watching the Saints game for a long number of years so it would be really nice to see them get in but the Vikings would love to be there as well. I was stationed at FT Polk La for a few years so I got some love for the Saints.

3) Not on the force bro the HPD stands for something else...I'm home grown Maui Built bro so i'm not on the big Island...but I do have family on the force both on Maui and Oahu.

4) My bruddah show our mainland brothers in here the aloha spirit. I know at times they start up this crap but you don't need to add fuel to the fire bro.

Good luck on your Saints

Make love not war my bruddah

Both teams have hard luck histories making them both so called "underdogs" and fan favorites to win. That said, they still have to play and there are factors to consider before betting. Playing in the Super Dome might help the Saints win, but ------Will they cover?

More on that later.

808 I here ya my man, but you can just click his avatar and read the post he made before the last game. He was talking about the fact that we lost to Tampa, and now he is loving the Vikes, C"MON MAN

In my opinion Minnesota is the best all around team left out of the four.

Crash my man. Just want to let you know that all this shit talkin is just to hype everyone up for this game. You cant tell me that when you have other factors involved especially emotion, watching the game is that much more exciting.

As far as my Dallas pick, I think that was the only time I bet on them all year. Like a chump I did not look at the big picture. One thing for sure, Saints in full force is no Dallas by any means.

Good luck in the "NO POST BET" and with your bets, brah,
