Regardless if Colts faced two "one-dimensional" offenses I dont think that takes anything away from their playoff performance (not implying that you said that). When you say they can pass with anyone theres no argument there, but running the ball as anyone im not so sure. Im not sure if you heard, but the Jets and Ravens were two of the top rushing teams in the league all year, and the Colts shut them down. In my opinion this defense is more geared to stop the pass, and now they are just absolutely stuffing the run. So dont take anything away from the Colts just because they faced two "one-dimensional" offenses, because these "one-dimensional" offenses were effective enough to make it into the postseason and even the AFC championship.

Greer has been lights out all season. Definitely one of the best cornerbacks all season... that's not the matchup I'm worried about, though. I'm more about Garcon/Collie/Wayne. We contain them, we win the game IMO.

The guy said that the Saints will lose because the Colts beat the Jets and Ravens, which is why I brought up their one-dimensional offenses.

You forgot about Dallas Clark. He is the most dangerous after Wayne, maybe even more dangerous.

I'll be rooting for the Saints, but they're not gonna win unless their pass D steps up its game big time, imo. And the Colts aren't gonna fumble 59 times like the viking did yesterday.

Did you guys see how much the Saints hit Farve????? Manning can't win if he is getting hit in the mouth all game!!

I am expecting the Saints to come out and stay with the Colts offensively. Then the biggest silent factor of the Saints Vikings game is the Saints defense flat out abused Farve. Manning is not use to taking that abuse and I can see him folding and showing his cards come fourth quarter.

Like a heavy weight fight, it is going to come down to willpower and who has the strong "desire" to win. I think Brees will pull out the W because of this. Manning lets his emotions get the best of him at times.

Your not going be at home you hit Manning late like you did Brett expect a lot of 15 yrd ruffing calls.
