Are you going to root for the Saints? NO vs ATL

[X-Clown]

I would root for a Falcons victory, not because I like them any more or less than the Saints. But if the Falcons go out on a two game winning streak, they hopefully keep Kyle Shanahan, Dmitroff and company. This would cause them to likely overdraft some more skill position players and mortgage their cap on big name FAs on defense which has served them so well in the past.

On the other hand, an embarrassing loss to a division rival to end the season could push Sean Peyton out the door (if he isn't there already), and possibly Brees, and could force them to push the reset button one year sooner instead of going for one more all in push. I don't consider them a threat if he stays mind you, but I wouldn't mind seeing them be a real bottom dweller for the next handful of years.

I hope they tie.

These teams will play the most boring/painful game ever witnessed on the gridiron.

Penalty flags thrown on every play with lengthy reviews by the officials before rendering their final decisions.

No first downs, no completed passes, no runs for gains, just punt after punt.  A game only John Fox could love.

Contaminated concessions food causes fans to dash for the bathrooms only to find plumbing backed up and overflowing.

Just as the game is about to come to its inglorious conclusion... 

a massive sink hole opens up and swallows the stadium whole.  

Both teams fans and players never to be seen or heard from again.

fug man. i hate the saints more than anyone in the universe but now i want to see the falcons run through a garbage disposal.

actually fug it. go falcons. let them win their superbowl against us and then a meaningless saints contest and keep dimitroff and keep sucking.

 

For brevity and ease. I will defer to X-Clown. He pretty much says what I am thinking. Although, I will add. I really could care less about this game.

Let the bitches tie and I wouldn't care

The Aints winning and leaving the Falcan'ts with a losing record for the season (which, I believe, would be the first time a team that started 5-0 ended with a losing record in NFL history) would please me.

Had you ask "are you going to root for the saints of falcons?"  I'd have answered "no".

[fanattic]

Go Falcons.......

[Jump Zone]

I don't care about the outcome, but if I had to pick one, I'd pull for a tie. Make them play an extra quarter for naught...

Who has fewer loses? That's who I want to win. Screw themselves out of a better draft pick.

Saints currently draft at #11, Falcons at #19, so I'll hope the Saints get one more win both to embarrass Atlanta and to move the Saints down a little in the draft.
