You think SF is going to manipulate the field conditions in their favor (heaviliy water and let the gras grow a longer than normal) to try to "slow" the Saints offense.

I know this sounds a little crazy but if I was Harbaugh I would do it.

Theres nothing in the rules that says they can't. The big caveat for them is if we get a lead and they have watered the field they have even less of a chance of mounting a comeback with that passing-challenged offense.

This is a crazy prediction. Ive never even heard of such a suggestion. Did you think of it all by yourself? Someone alert the saints.

With the type of pedestrian offense the 49ers have, it would work more in our favor than theirs. Our offense will still get their points and yards, they on the other hand not so much. If they plan winning with just running the ball and defense they have another thing coming.

I have NEVER heard so much talk about field conditions going into a game.

Retarded and inaccurate theory our offense is based on matchups and accuracy not speed spores is only player may be affected speed wise but it didn't affect him much in san Diego

The most scrutinized weather/conditions of a forcasted 60 degree and sunny day ever!

The reason for all the talk is that someone on one of the NFL shows suggested that SF water down the field because our WR are big and will need traction. At some point, it hurts them too though.

The reason for all the talk is no one knows how to stop our offense, and they're grasping at anything (in this case grass) as a possible answer.

We aren't an outdoor team we are a dome team, we will be lucky to even score a touchdown
I'm so sick of that

well considering the saints have never played on grass, I understand it.
