Dag gummit! I saw the best is yet to come after I voted, I believe we still have yet to see the best!! And that's saying a lot considering what all went on on the Monday nioght game!
 
I was at the monday night game and, although by now it's cliche to say, I still can't imagine a game that is more exciting and emotional.
 
I voted for tonight's game against Dallas.

While the MNF game was awesome and very emotional with the reopening of the Dome, a lot of "outsiders" (media, other fans, etc.) chalk that one up to the emotion of the moment spouting cliches like "Nobody could have beaten the Saints in that Dome that night."

What I like about this win is that nobody can pull out the lame excuses about why Dallas lost - this was a clear-cut a$$-whoopin'. We were in their stadium, they were 100% healthy, they were 8-4 and had just as much incentive as far as post-season positioning to win this game as we had, and everyone counted us out and looked at Dallas as a team on the rise. That we manhandled the Cowgirls like we did on another national stage no less puts greater legitimacy for us in the eyes of the rest of the nation (not that we need their blessing anyway).

*Although now that we have beaten Dallas, I guess they'll be relegated to the list of "Teams the Saints have beaten that weren't any good." ;)
 
This is the first season I've been able to watch every minute of every game live and have loved every minute of it. In past years it's only been the occassional game live on cable and usually we got smashed. The games were a catch-22 for me - great to see them live but it usually meant an embarrassing loss. This year all the prime time games have been special.

The return to the Superbowl was special because it will be remembered long after the season is done and dusted. This game against Dallas though was special because we smashed a team that was a genuine contender in their own house in a highly publicised game. Make no mistake, Dallas had everything to play for and we embarrassed them. That was special.
 
Todays game was bigged than against Atlanta. This was more crucial for a bigger spotlight against a tougher team with more injuries for us to overcome. I think this will be the best game of the regular season as it was our toughest NFC opponent and only game against a likely division champ.

I dont think it is fair to include possible playoff games. No good team can say a game in the regular season is more important than the playoffs. This was our best game in years.
 
I only saw the highlights! But they were massively impressive. This is only the second I have missed (the other was the Ravens game) and it turned out to be a classic!! The Saints are for real. This is next year!!!
 
Great Dane, I can seriously say I feel sorry for you having only seen the highlights. You need to beg, borrow, or steal to get your hands on a torrent, a VHS, or a DVD of this whole game! It was truly an offensive, defensive, and gameplanning clinic put on by :worthy: Sean Payton. If I had a copy of the game, I'd send it to you. :D
