We all need to be Saints fans this week.

And I agree. Just win and we'll be good.

I'm pretty sure we'll all be Saints fans this week regardless.

Well of course, but moreso than we all would've been anyways. :nod:

We NEED that first round bye.

A saints win would also help assure that the ravens can only get in as 6th seed. If the ravens were to get 5th seed, the Steelers would most likely face them in the divisional round. Beating the patriots in the AFCCG will be tough enough. Playing baltimore the previous week would likely have us limping into new england with even more injuries.

It would be nice if the stars align and we can clinch that 1st round bye this week and rest some of our guys.
