no one could talk to me.
Yeah I wasn't up for watching it with anyone either. I mean I had a bunch of people trying to get me to come over and watch it but I lived on Dauphin Island at the time. It would have been a 30-45 minute drive to friends houses plus I was/am a way more serious fan than they are.
i regretted it afterwards cause I talked on the phone to people all night. It would have been better to talk to them in person.
I did go to a friends house to watch the Super Bowl though.

I did too, was at total peace and enjoying myself until porter intercepted the ball and actually picked up someone 75lb heavier than me and ran outside and starting whooping it up.

yeah, once he made that interception.. in my mind that was the sign we were gonna some how win the game.
I mean you can only turn the ball over so much before it ultimately screws you over.
and the one time that the Saints did (Reggie fumble on a punt return) they gave it right back to us. Favre and Peterson had a mishap on the hand off a few plays later.

No I meant the Super Bowl. Sorry.

All Good.
I'm gonna rewatch the NFC game now.
to me that was just as special.. that day.. when the Saints finally reached a Super Bowl!!!!!!!!!!!!
on the day of the Super Bowl I kept thinking "man I can't believe this" just a surreal feeling all day. Even when we were down during that game I never felt bad honestly.
I mean it was a sports fans dream come true for me
I wanted to win obviously but I just felt kind of numb that day. In a good way.
hard to describe really.

like basically i knew the Super Bowl was as far you can go... I just didn't want the season to be over.
I've watched every game from that season multiple times.
I went to the Jets game and I've watched that one probably more than any other regular season games from that year.

Minnesota fans eternally hate the Saints because of that game. Especially since they think we cheated because of that BS "bounty gate".
Posted on 6/6/17 at 9:13 pm to Rougarou4lsu
The Vikings were the best team that year by a good amount. The Saints played hell of a game.
This is one of my favorite games where I have no rooting interest.

Greatest game ever. The March from my seats to poydras to bourbon was amazing.
The superbowl was fun to watch. The NFC Championship in the Dome was an entirely different experience.

Saints started 13-0, not understanding this comment.

Anyone else notice it's the only fricking game they play at that saints store in the airport?
Posted on 6/6/17 at 11:03 pm to quail man
I've seen the Washington game twice.

Me too man. I think I stomped my knee back into an injury. I called nearly everyone in my family after the game, could't believe we were going to the SB.

Disagree. A good amount?? Don't make me fricking laugh. The Vikings lost to the Panthers by double digits that year when a win would have served them well. The Saints lost to them (Panthers) too in the last regualr season game but they clearly weren't trying to win that game(especially in the 2nd half). Then the Vikings lost to the Bears on Monday Night Football and that game sealed the seeding in the playoffs that year.
Minnesota did beat the frick out of the Giants in the playoffs that year but we had beat their arse too. When Minnesota destroyed Dallas I did take notice and yeah I knew the matchup they presented wasn't that favorable but jesus christ.. to say they were the best by a good margin is totally moronic and unwarranted.

well at least you got that part right.

How about the comments of the Saints getting their arse kicked in that game? Why not DV those and ask them the same question?
The Vikes were the better team, NO just happened to win the game.
I don't see what's wrong with that statement.

All of this yet the Giants have two Superbowls as a 9-7, wildcard team. One beating Favre in GB then beating the 18-0 Pats then beating the 9ers (who beat you guys member that?) and then beating the Patriots.
All of those H2H games you mentioned mean next to nothing (other than seeding) come playoffs. The transitive property of football is a farce. Ask LSU fans how much their win over Bama in regular season helped them beat Bama in the title game...

you want me to compare college football to pro football?
naw.. I'll pass.

they were 10-6 in 2007.
and they lost to the Pats by three points that year when New England was looking to stay perfect. In the last regular season game.

so why even bother with a college football comparison to back up that statement?
The records of teams argued (totality) weren't the same.
and then you want to throw in LSU-Alabama.
I'm not following you.

Are you saying the transitive property only applies to one and not the other?

9-7 or 10-6 my point stands. By your logic, NE was 6 wins better
quote:

So... are you agreeing with me?
My whole point is that just cuz one team beat another team by 13 points while team C won by 3, means next to nothing except for internet trolling.
The Vikings didn't roll through the regular season like you guys did. Things came together for them late. They looked damn good after that Dallas playoff game. New Orleans beat a very good Vikings team. I'm not sure why you're so defensive. The Vikings were better, by how much, idk. Read the thread again, your fan base seems to think the same thing.

i've always said the Vikings were a better team than the Colts that year.
but for you to sit there and say the Vikings were a better team by a good amount is baseless.
Fact:
they choked away the playoff seeding down the stretch. At the same time, the Saints were on a bit of a skid. It's no mystery. Now.. since you believe Minnesota was the best team that year.. well.. go right of head.

no they didn't.
especially in the NFC Title.
