a little bit

They might win 14 games but They have more than one weakness and have played a pathetic schedule.

Pundits make them out to be unbeatable at home...they played one good team at home all year and a slew of shitty teams...I don't think you should have a lineup of 12-4 teams at home, but san fran at 6-4 is the best team they've played at home

Not that we've had some beastly home slate, but then again people aren't making us out to be the 85 bears

Seattle opponents have a .390 winning percentage.

Saints opponents have a .475 winning percentage.

They lost a game to an AFC team on the road.

Saints lost two games to AFC teams on the road.

In looking at common opponents....they blew out San Fran at home 29-3, we beat San Fran at home 23-20.

They beat Arizona on the road 34-22, we beat Arizona at home 31-7.

They barely beat Tampa 27-24 in OT at home. We barely beat Tampa 16-14 on the road.

We won a close one against Atlanta at home 23-17, they blew out Atlanta on the road 33-10.

Seattle is also really close to having 2 more losses on their records, to St. Louis and Houston. But they won the games and a win is a win.

Honestly, I wouldn't say they are overrated. If you take both the Saints and Seahawks body of work thus far, I think the teams are just about even. I'll give us the slight edge because of #9.

Well, they haven't lost at home since the 2011 season, so we're talking nearly 2 full seasons of results at this point. And their MOV is insane in that timespan
