SAINTS: Miami bound for first Super Bowl appearance ever

Issue date: 2/1/10 Section: News
And a 45-14 bashing of the reigning NFC Champions showed the rest of the league that they were back and ready for a Super Bowl.
The NFC Championship: Yes I'm sure you all watched it-it was the most watched conference championship game in history-and I'm sure you have all heard that the Saints did not win the NFC Championship game...the Vikings lost it.
Brett Favre lost it on his back.
Adrian Peterson lost it…just like he lost the football every other play.
It doesn't matter the Vikings lost, and the Saints won, don't take away from the glory that us loyal Saints fans have gained after 43 years of suffering.
Oh and it doesn't matter how much talent the Vikings have, if it doesn't get you a championship ring it is just money down the toilet.
Adrian Peterson may run for 1,750 yards every year, but if he can't hang on to the ball what's the point? I'd take Pierre Thomas or Mike Bell over him any day.
And Brett Favre, to whom I have the utmost respect, please go watch the game tape, and realize you're too old for this.
And Now…Super Bowl XLIV: It looks like those pigs that began flying the night of January 23 will be making their way into Miami this Sunday.
The home field advantage will be taken away from the Saints, but at least it will be on neutral turf instead of inside Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
If you thought the Vikings were a tough test for the Saints, just wait and see what the Colts have in store for Super Sunday.
Peyton Manning, the league MVP and possibly the greatest quarterback in NFL history, will present a problem New Orleans hasn't faced all year. With a defense ranked 26th in the league, the Saints better bring their best to stop Manning and his plethora of targets. Reggie Wayne is one of the best wide receivers in the entire league, and with the emergence of rookies Pierre Garcon and Austin Collie he will have an easier time getting open. And we can't forget that the Colts possess the most deadly threat at tight end in the entire NFL in Dallas Clark.
