why are we everyone's Super Bowl? (1 Viewer)

[Optimistic Ozzy]

Because the majority of the announcers are just stupid morons when it comes to actual knowledge about our team.

 

[Symbiote]

Um, we are not everyone's "Super Bowl" except the divisional teams.


Let's face it, we are not the best team in the league.


Teams just play us tough. That would be a better question "why don't everyone lay down and let us beat them?"

Everyone wants to beat the Saints and the Patriots. Since our SB win, we have been a 10+ win team and should hopefully continue to be for awhile. 10 wins usually gets you into the playoffs in some form. So we are just considered one of the better teams these days.

When the Yankees/Red Sox or the Lakers come to town, ticket sales increase because people want to see their local team beat them.

Times change.... Denver and Seattle are rising....Patriots SEEM to be waining... But we haven't fallen off the radar yet...

You could say this about the Steelers, the 49ers, the Ravens, and anyone that has been to a Super Bowl in the last decade...

Its just somehow to me teams just play us harder at there house. Saints need to play on another level in other team venues. You just cant go on the road half stepping because a losing team will beat the crap out of you. The other team get paid as well. Like Firecross say once you win the Superbowl every team goes after you to see if they can match you. Saints just have to turn up the volume on away games and never let the feet off the gas pedal. Try to break them so they know its no way we can beat these guys.

We will see what kind of team we have Sunday. Away game for the NFC South Division. This is the NFC South Superbowl n Carolina. Either **** or get up off the pot.

Because we're the 2nd seed right now in the playoff hunt and as of late a winning tradition. If we had a losing record no one would care as much they do now. I'm sure it's the same for Seattle right now too.

Most playoff appearances in the last four years:

4: RAVENS
3: Giants, Packers, Saints, Falcons, Steelers, Eagles, Patriots, Colts

Recent SB Winners out of that group: Everyone but Falcons(LOL) and Eagles....

So there you have it.....
Denver==Colts
Packers lost Rodgers
Giants are a dumpster fire for reasons I dont care to follow
Steelers are struggling

Ravens, Saints, Patriots, "Denver" <------ your elite teams everyone wants to beat....

Seattle, 49ers, Bengals are new kids on the block IMO.

We are every team's Super Bowl because we leave the door cracked enough to make games more important than they should have been. Also, we had some help from the schedule makers.

 

[Icon]

The Patriots haven't won a Super Bowl in nearly a decade, and they are still other teams's Super Bowl sometimes.

 

[TheRealJRad]

I still believe Seattle played theirs against us. There's no way to prove or disprove this for several game, of course.
