You can go ahead and stop with all the "we seem to be the underdog", and the "nobody is pickin us to win" nonsense. It's not fooling anyone. NO is the favorite in this one. Period. The pressure is all on the Saints and there's no way around it. All the "we're not gettin any respect" type talk is getting ridiculous.

Obviously not.

What pressure? We weren't supposed to be here according to the pundits.

We were supposed to be 6-10 at best.. if you ask me, there's -NO- Pressure on the Saints whatsoever.

yawn. I'll humor you and say this will be another one-sided chess match wherein Payton shows off his prodigious play calling abilities.

A troll? Good Lord.

Just thought I was pointing out the obvious. I'll give it a rest if it bothers you that much. But you have to admit, all the "They're all picking the Eagles" talk is pretty funny.

So is all of the the talk saying so. It's funny too. Everybody here reads the sports sites and is paying attention.

In the future shy away from the obvious and enjoy the place for what it is.

What pressure?

The pressure that comes with defending your home field in the playoffs. Whether you admit it or not, you know it's true.

No duh. What are you? A troll? Point out two more obvious points and I'll paypal you -5 dollars.

Sorry KD.. but there's no pressure. We weren't supposed to be here.. Heck, nobody thought we were going to be here 11 weeks into the season.

Now we're here, they're scared.. they can't afford to be beat by the "sympathy story". The pressure is on everyone else to beat us.

Saints - 121
Eagles - 3

Respect that

In the playoffs the pressure is always on each team to win regardless of the media hype or the games location. I don't think the players feel anymore or less pressure to play their best based on all the opinions of the experts, fans,..or, whomever. You lose and you go home, no second chance, what could exert more pressure 'n that?

As far as the Eagles and the Saints go and any extra pressure being on them from their fan base in case of a loss, the Eagles are the ones that will suffer. They lose and y'all will probably want someones head. Saints lose and they will be thanked for the great effort they gave. IMO.
