The Saints are overrated. Philly has picked themselves up and are playing some good smart football. What do you think?

Look at the Saints' record...they beat teams that sucked. Big deal, easy schedule. Yes they beat Philly but the Eagles are a different team now.

amen, i think the saints are the feel good story of the year so people wanna believe, but until they beat a good enough team, i don't, so bye bye saints...........eagles and bears for the nfc, we'll see what happens there.
btw i agree, the only good teams they played they lost to , cincy, pitt, ravens, and the sometimes good panthers, they beat the eagles at a weak point in the season, and they were at their best and they barely beat them

Don't really like either team. I think that until recently Philly was the more talented team. I think Philly is playing better right now. But I'd sure like to see the Saints kick some butt, and I think that they have a good chance of doing so.

Philly will not win against the Saints. 28-21 Saints over Philly. The Saints will dominate in the passing game, shepherd is out. Garcia is looking good but he will struggle against the Saints Defensive line, Will Smith, Charles Grant, and Brown. They will be in his face. Sorry bud.

Yes, I think the Eagles are running on all cylinders. They have a great chance to beat the Saints in the Superdome. I like the way Jeff Garcia is playing, and I think the Eagles D, in spite of some injury issues, is going to come up big.

Philly is playing "some good smart football?" Are you smoking crack? Yeah, they did real good at the end of the season with Jeff Garcia, nobody expected that, but listen here, Sonny Jim, they only pulled off a last minute field goal AT HOME to barely squeek by the rolling train wreck that was the 2006 8-8 Giants! That in NO WAY qualifies as "good smart football!" (unless you happen to be the Detroit Lions....)
I have heard that actually NOBODY outside Philly thinks the Eagles are going to pull it off.....
(INSIDE Philly, it is reported that there are over 27,307 who actually claim to believe it but a Gallup poll now shows that over 27,000 of those are actually LYING........)

Yes the Eagles have momentum and the last time we played the Saints we were a totally different team. I say the Eagles pick up a victory.

We are probably in the minority about this but I do agree. I hate to say it is because of Katrina but they seem to get the national preference and other than the perfomance against Dallas (who were eventually exposed to what they actually were) they are not that solid. I think in this game the play-off experience will play a major role. Philly is on a roll--they have been there Andy Reid knows what he has to do to get his guys prepared...and they just seem to be really confident and well coached within there capabilities the last ...well since they played the COLTS.

Philly is doing great but I have been a Saints fan back when they sucked. I'm glad to see them doing so well. I'll root for them for now.

The Eagles will win in another nail-biter. The Saints aren't going to make it easy nor will their fans.
