2012 NFL Playoffs: Saints Vs. Lions

in Non-49ers Game Threads
Email
PrintThe Houston Texans and Cincinnati Bengals provided a playoff appetizer this afternoon as the Houston Texans appeared in and won their first ever playoff game. Early on it looked like we would have a tight battle, but the Texans pulled away behind a strong Arian Foster performance and a fairly dominant defensive performance.
Now we get to the important matchup for 49ers fans. The Saints and Lions square off on NBC at 5:00pm PT. If the Saints win, they will travel to Candlestick Park next week. If the Saints lose, the 49ers will host the winner of tomorrow's Giants-Falcons wild card contest.
The Saints are heavy favorites in this game and it is fitting given how dominant they have been at home. The Saints have some question marks on the road, but in the Superdome, their offense is playing at a ridiculous level. Upsets do happen, but I figure the Lions will have another meltdown at some point tonight. The Lions are incredibly talented, but they do seem to take after their coach when it comes to maintaining their composure. I think we could have a close game early, but a few stupid penalties will cost the Lions and they'll fall too far behind at some point. We'll see.
If you do not have access to a TV, you can watch the game online at NBCSports.com.

media needs to
lather up star QBs cause that’s who they market and how they attract games and sell them to public. It’s a bit nauseating, even when its your own guy.
Gotta beat the best if we wanna be the best.
Let’s go saints. We want to take you on next week.
I think the Lions have a better shot at the Packers

He tripled it
I think the Lions can hang with the Packers. If the game does end up close I fully expect the Lions to screw it up.
If we can't beat the saints at home then we have no shot at winning the SB anyway.
So let’s get the trial by fire started sooner, rather than later.
wouldn't you rather lose in the NFC Champ game
than the divsion round? Why yearn for the “tougher” path to the SB?
Well...
We would get a higher draft pick…

Let me put it this way.
Losing in the NFC Championship vs. Divisional round makes no difference to me.
Because we lost.
But if we’re a team that deserves to be in the Superbowl, then we’ll beat teams like New Orleans or Green bay.
So let’s stop delaying the trial and get it started. Let’s play one of the best teams.
Would'nt it be wondeful if Lions D beat the crap out of Brees.
But I honestly think Brees simply has to many offensive weapons to play with
I wish
The Lions defense is awful. I hate, hate, hate that Nick Fairly pick. Spent a top 15 pick on a rotation player when they had needs everywhere else on defense.
or that the Lions D is not good
They took advantage of lots of turnovers early in the season, but they’ve been sloppy.
I don't care who wins this game
There are pros and cons for each team.
Pro-Saints
- I don’t like the Lions
- I kind of like the Saints
- The Giants have the best chance to beat the Packers, setting up a great matchup for us at home in the NFCC.
Pro-Lions
- The Falcons or Giants are an easier matchup than the Saints.
- I don’t think we can beat the Saints, then the Packers (if the other team loses to the Packers).
All in all, I think I like the Saints a bit more.

Besides that, the Saints are obnoxious.
I actually kind of hate them just for the whole “Who Dat” abortion-of-the-English-language phrase that people often use in reference to that team.

I don't care for that
rather insipid phrase either. It made me root against them during their super bowl run.
Here is what I dont understand.......
Everyone is saying that the 49ers cant keep up with the offense of pack and saints. Its annoying. Everyone has just disregarded the other phases of the football game. Defense and Special teams. Coincedently its also the phases of the game we DOMINATE. I think the question should and will prove to be : Can they score on the Niners D? We dont give up a lot of TD’s. Saints dont play well on grass, they are a turf team. Not to mention they only average 24 pts on the road. But lets ignore that and talk about their offense. I DONT GET IT!!!
THE TEAM WITH THE SEXIEST QUARTERBACK WINS EVERY GAME EVER

That's the Gambler's Fallacy talking
If it was at 10, I’d absolutely take the Saints, but that half point scares me off. I would bet the under, though.

But even with each game being an independent event, I think the Saints showing what they’ve done at home gives me faith in it.
by David Fucillo on Jan 7, 2012 4:52 PM PST up reply actions
We'll see.
If I had the money to bet, I wouldn’t have bet on this game. I’d have bet on the Texans to cover and the Broncos to cover (that game will end like 13-10 anyway) and possibly the under in this game (60 is a LOT).

Hakeem played the best basketball I’ve ever seen for those two seasons. He played better in post season than Jordan ever did.
I think that Hakeem is really underrated despite being really highly rated
I think he might be the best center of all time after Russell and Kareem.

by Tim Lincecum's Bong on Jan 7, 2012 4:56 PM PST up reply actions
He's probably one of the most gifted passers
the last decade, has some bad mechanics at times, and misses too often on makeable throws. But he is a weapon that will never be out of a game, and he makes a lot of difficult throws look easy.
I also think his unorthodoxy can be part of his strength (thinking of him sidearming a throw to complete a perfect pass over the middle recently).
He throws to one receiver
Plus he throws the entire 2nd half because the Lions are always down 2 scores.
once receiver?
Young and Burelson have a healthy # of receptions. Look it up. Pettigrew has 80 recepts too.
What? FF?
First, both should have been owned in deep leagues if guys were smart, and just look at the reception #‘s. Johnson didn’t hog the recepts by any means. Pettigrew and 80+, Burleson 70+, Young 48, CJ 96.
What's he rated?
I mean, not even a peep that Stafford threw for over 5000+ yards.

If he was “overrated” that makes it sound like the media is all over him. And you know how much they love to look at passing yards.

But he got it, a lot of qbs had to so that over the years its still a great accomplishmwnt.
"What the hell are you mixing in that look-aid"
Yeah, he may even be under-rated.
Guy had 5,038 yards passing and 41 TDs. That’s really fucking good, even accounting for weapons like Calvin Johnson and weak opposing defenses.

After Schwartz, of course.

Just seems like he hasn’t had enough chance to shine and boost his draft stock. I could see Taylor coming off a great junior year. Although if both come back, that backfield is ridiculous. Plus Stanford gets some solid o-line talent coming in.

I mean he is, but he REALLY looks like one.
And that face is very punchable.
Prediction: Schwartz and Greg Williams erupt into a fight after the game
A melee ensues, in which Suh will be charged for assault as he tries to “exit” the brawl. Roman Harper twists someones leg and Stafford tears Brees head off.
They will after the first quarter....
however collinsworth will not overlook the niners. He has been somewhat fair with them.
He said at least the coaching staff.
Maybe players there as well.
Joe, Jerry, Steve, and....Who is next?
I would say at least a few of the coaches

The Lions are
ATTACKING right now. Not trying to control clock or play field position; they are taking it to them. Niners need to try and be aggressive. Saints play lots of man to man.
That's not our style
We milk the clock and play defense. We lack the personnel to be as explosive and it’s not our philosophy.
And that QB is Alex Smith

Not a bad idea against horrible defenses.
Complete the short pass, and the receiver can pick up an easy ten yards. Neither team seems to be interested in playing anything even remotely similar to defense today.

Literally, all Stafford has to do is throw it up to him

you can't seriously be short chaning Stafford
He’s got a great target, but the guy makes great, on point throws on high difficulty throws

Fitz's numbers are a bit down the last two years with crappy QBs
but your point is a valid one. Both positions can compensate for deficiencies in the other. But no one denies that QB is numero uno. Both can inflate the #‘s of each other. What’s also clear is that Stafford is performing on a different level entirely than Alex Smith. And it’s not because Stafford has Megatron and Alex does not.
this is a stretch
lots of bad QB’s have great receivers. Just as lots of average WRs have great QBs that iincrease teir production

yes
Niners are probably down in this game. The lions are in the “cozy” position of being up because they attack and can succeed doing that.
my point is that it wouldn't be the same game if the niners were playing
so there’s no point is saying that the niners would be losing if they were playing. You’re judging based upon the offensive production so far but not accounting for our defense which would make it a different game.
I'm not stating facts
I’m saying that is my view of how the game would go. We would have to be more aggressive than usual to be winning against the Saints. That’s how I see it playing out, nothing more.
it's just funny how the niners have found themselves in that same "cozy" position a lot this year
against a lot better defenses
the bigger question
is the offenses they face. They’ve won out on it during the regular season. But nobody is buying that the Niners won’t have to rest their hopes on Alex Smith at some point in the postseason. I’m not resting on the idea that the Niners will dominate the Saints or Packer O so much that they can play the same way and win. I acknowledge that some are.
yes they'll probably have to rely on alex smith at some point
but they have in the regular season too. He’s had multiple 4th quarter come backs.

Only if Manning ia leaving. rg3 has the highest ceiling.
"What the hell are you mixing in that look-aid"
Not surprising at all.
It’s a no-brainer. Peyton might even be better next year, or the next two years, but it’s a decision you have to make.
It’s akin (almost) to the Niners trading Montana. Better to let a player go a season or two too early than to hang onto him a season or two too long.
I would have thought they would hire a GM first
and or wait for the combine.

Just figured out why the Saints o-line is so good
they get away with a ton of holding
No TD.

THEY'RE GOING TO CALVIN JOHNSON RULE THIS

Except it isn't the Calvin Johnson rule this time
If you're watching a blowout, you can pass the time by counting the double teapots.
Samurai Champloo > Macross
Isn't it though?
He didn’t have possession all the way to the ground.

That's called not making the catch
He didn’t have possession of the ball. Calvin did.

Yeah
I looked at the replay again, and you’re right. I thought that he had possession but dropped it on the ground.

RIGGED. NFL wants Packs Vs. Saints for NFCC.

Hands to the face or something? Ridiculous. What a bad penalty call.

Possesion rule in the NFL needs to be fixed
That should be a touchdown, even though by current rules say it is incomplete.
If it’s a running TD the minute the ball crosses the goalline, why does the receiver need to possess it for an eternity for a passing TD?
No that one shouldn’t be.
The running thing needs to be addressed, but a runner has possession already, Colston never established it.

Fair enough
I just thought there is a huge discrepancy between rush TD and pass TD.
A running can poke the ball across the plane, lose it in a fumble before being down, and it’s still a TD.
because he already has posession
and once the ball crosses the line and the player has possession, it’s a TD. It works the same way with a receiver.
but if he fumbles it during the TD, it's still a TD
I guess my real gripe here is that possesion on a catch going to the ground is just nuts.
If he has posssession when both feet/one knee hit the ground, who cares what happens after he hits the ground?
I agree
But that’s not what happened here

They should fine refs for bad calls that get overturned

The refs make too many bad calls. they will be totally broke.
Then the refs will have to start fixing games to get payoffs from the mob

Turnover right here!!
They not gonna run it, refs are blowing this game for detroit tho. They should be up 21-7 with that fumble they could have ran back
should have been picks on the last 2 downs.

Give the Lions credit...they are not intimadated by the Saints and....
Stafford is showing fantastic
