re: How bad does that '11 loss in San Fran sting now?

If I had to bet on a team had the Saints advanced, I would've taken them. I agree with 99% of your post btw. I just think saints fans get too emotional about that year to actually discuss what if. The Giants pass rush was awesome. JPP became a house hold name over that playoff run. He was a rookie or a one year pro. When it comes to NFL playoffs you can't just say "look to this game here where we won, we would've won again". It is possible they lose. The Saints lost by ten to rookie Sam Bradford. Crazy things happen. I bet y'all didn't give a rats arse about facing a 7-9 Seattle team that you dusted the previous year in the regular season? I'm not even a Giants fan
