The Saints Are In The Super Bowl: Let's Hear The Excuses Flow

The Saints were purposely coming after Brett Favre, replay officials made some bad calls,the pass interference call on Ben Leber in overtime was bogus, overtime rules are horrible and both teams should get the ball. Ladies and gentlemen, there are all sorts of conspiracy theorists out there that will pick this game apart for a long time and wonder why the Saints won and the Vikings were "robbed." If so many people are making excuses for the Saints' victory and the Vikings' loss, then I feel I should give a few reasons for both of those occurrences.

Why even address the bullcrap?

You know how much dumb crap us Giants fans heard after the '07 run... like I cared, muha, I still laugh. :icon_cool:

 

No excuses, they won the games they needed to win, and they're in the Super Bowl.

End of story.

 

The Saints beat the Vikes fair & square and I couldn't be happier that they are representing the NFC - conspiracy theorists are just sore losers fresh off a tough loss.

 

:word:

Don't listen to the naysayers saintsfan. The Saints were the better team because they limited their turnovers and capitalized on the Vikings mistakes.

Just for you SF72:

Good luck to your Saints in Super Bowl XLIV.

 

The Vikings lost the game because they gave the game away - end of story. Not many teams can turn the ball over what, 6...7, times and win a game.

 

No consipiracy. Vikings handed your team a win. I just prefer when teams EARN their wins by playing good football.
5 turnovers and your team still only won by a long field goal in OT....are we all supposed to celebrate the greatness of the saints for THAT?

 

The Vikes lost, bc Deanna wasn't shown enough :icon_cheesygrin:

The Saints made less mistakes, that's why they won. Period

 

the saints won they deserve it. but but but but but.... there have been some real questionable calls in some of these playoff games. i really hope officals are held accountable and are forced to watch the plays over and be heavily evaluated.....

i knew breesus would would take em to the promise land

 

the reason why the saints won was becuase wile my wife and I were at dinner, they forgot my food so we got our meals discounted and that gave the saints all the motivation to win......

No it was a well played game, Vickings had a few slips and that is what probably cost them the game but Saints won it and it wasnt becuase of any conspiracy besides the discounted meal.........

 

you know what....i think i'll take your advice. i'll just embrace the hate and enjoy the show. you know this is all new for us saints fan.....we're still learning. :icon_cool:

 

:word: ...get that dirt off your shoulder. :icon_smile:

 

*brush*

 

Just temper your expectations....watching your team lose the super bowl is a pain like none other. If you start buying into all that Breesus saves/it's NOLA's destiny because of Katrina BULLCRAP then when the Colts demolish your mediocre defense in two weeks it will be even tougher to swallow. My advice is be happy with what you have, hope with all your heart for an upset, but be ready for a loss.

 

Some how the football gods are mad at us fans and they are taking it out on us. I hope we have not made them so mad that they will let the Saints win the Super Bowl.

 

Why should there be excuses? Congrats to the Saints fans!! :icon_smile:

 

Welcome to a Steelers fans world. We had to defend both of our last Super Bowl wins.

 

It's an open secret, refs always take party for the AFC teams :bolt:

 

The Saints won.....

Because the Vikings killed the Cowboys, and Dallas never made it to New Orleans :icon_cool:.









hah. Who cares how it happened, they're there.. 15 other teams aren't. And don't let a Eagle fan sit there and talk crap about Saints having a "mediocre" defense when, Saints beat them by 26. Seems like someone else needs a mediocre defense of their own, maybe that will please them.
