    Minnesota will most likely win. They were and I believe still are clearly the better football team as proved in the NFC Championship game. Yes, the Saints won the game by virtue of more points on the scoreboard. I will give them that - they did win it but they were not the better team. Their win was more due to Minnesotas turnovers than it was skill by the Saints. Since this is true then to have a chance the Saints will have to hope that they turn it over again that many times or find another way to screw themselves. The Saints cannot beat the Vikings, the Saints have to hope the Vikings beat themselves again. Sounds like relying on luck to me...

    To me the Saints vs Vikings is like asking if Mike Tyson or Buster Douglas would have won the rematch if they fought a second time 6 months later. Buster Douglas won the fight that night in Tokyo but does anyone honestly think that he was a better fighter than Tyson? Flukes happen but they don't often happen twice in a row...

    Minnesota Vikings win for 2 reasons: they're out for revenge and they've learned from their mistakes. The only reason the Saints won was because the Vikings' mistakes killed their momentum. If you actually go back to watch, the Vikings actually dominated the game (besides the turnovers). Even with all of the fumbles and interceptions, the Saints couldn't even take advantage and it was still a tied game. The Vikings' defense held the #1 offense to only 77 yards in the second half and the Vikings' offense moved the ball all over the Saints' defense. In fact the only reason the Saints scored twice in the second half was because of great field position (kickoff return and Percy Harvin's fumble). Instead of Saints fans talking sh*t and fellow Vikings fans complaining, everyone needs to realize what truly happened that game: the Saints got lucky. It'll be a different story this year. The "Who Dat" nation will learn.

    NO, and by alot. I love my Saints, but more importantly they are a great early season team, Brees will be a nightmare for the first few weeks, I mean more of a nightmare than he already is for opposing teams
