How nervous are you? Scale of 1-10

I'm a 10. The only time I've ever been this nervous for a game was for the 09 NFCCG.
The Seattle game last year ruined me. While I think this team is rolling, I can't help but think of that game.
AND, I think that Detroit game was a LOT closer than people think. They didn't have Suh and committed a lot of dumb penalties that killed drives or took scoring drives off the books. Should have been closer.
I can't focus on work at all.

I rewatched the first game against detroit last night and I gotta say it bumped me up a couple of points on nervousness scale.
Fairley was TEARING it up before he got hurt. We did not score a td with him in the game and he got a sack and like two tackles for a loss. That was without suh. Granted he only played for about a quarter and some change (haha); and the saints probably would have adjusted and overcame it.
I'd put it at 3

We are on a different level of playing right now, especially at home.

I'm not nervous. Yes I agree that the game earlier this year was closer than the score, but I also believe this team is on a whole other level right now.

5ish
The Lions are no push over. They played well last time, but came up just short. I think we win this one, and I'd put money on it, but it's not going to be anything like the last three games.

I may just be overconfident since the game is at home in primetime, but I'm not nervous the slightest bit.

I was more nervous when we played Arizona in the Divisional Round 2 years ago.....

1, and that's for both games this weekend.
The success of both teams this year has me pretty much at ease... and I can't help but think one or the other is going home with a championship so I'm alright..

I was even more nervous when they came out and scored like it was nothing. A card guy in my section got in front of the entire section and was screaming for us to look at the scoreboard.
Then reggie bush happend
Then that guy left during halftime because everyone in the section took turns yelling scoreboard at him

somewhere between 0.1 and 0.2
the game may be close, they may get some good plays, maybe even a sack or two, but the way our team is playing is phenomenal. Combine the greatest season of any QB with our running game and the way our D has stepped up recently and no one can beat us. As for the seatle game, it was not in the dome, the 2010 team was way shittier than the 2011 team, and Marshawn Lynch doesnt play for the lions.
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

There's really nothing to be nervous about if you think about it. If this team can't take care of business at home, then we wouldn't have done shite on the road. I don't think that's the case. I'm not trying to disrespect the Lions, but we're on a whole other level.
I'm more nervous about what type of popcorn I'm go to eat during the game.

No where near as nervous as I was having to face BRETT FAVRE.

This is what is going to drive this team to the Super Bowl this year. They have such a disgusting taste in their mouth from that loss, that they won't let that happen again.
They might get Suh back, but our line has gelled incredibly well since that game. Brees hasn't been touched since the Rams game really.

The defense still makes me really nervous this year, but not as much at home and our tackling had been really solid to close out this year. Which was obviously the other thing we sucked at in Seattle.
Thinking about San Fran makes 8/10 on the nervous scale, but Lions are only registering about a 3 on my scale.
To quote Bart Scott, "their defense couldn't stop a nose bleed!"

Marshawn Lynch is a special player. You run that same play with any other running back, they 5 yards tops.
Posted on 1/5/12 at 10:33 am to Patrick O Rly
He may be a special player, but the D in that game was special ed

Not very...the Lions are extremely thin at RB and they will be one dimensional on offense. The Saints have been playing out of this world on offense and the defense has bent but not broken.
This game is at home and I just don't see the Saints losing at home. Still, I'm always going to be a little nervous especially considering this is an important game.
