Big complex disguised coverages are key.

What if we walked our corner up on graham every time and just played man on him. Do zone behind that.

the zone would only work is we get pressure...Soap needs to exploit de la puente

I've noticed that when the saints center holds up the Tackle the two guards would try to pin their guys towards the center to bunch them up and open lanes for the Short Drew brees can pass through..can't let this happen

WHO DAT? NATION




Contrary to popular belief, the phrase "Who Dat?" was not derived from "Who dat say gon' beat dem Saints??". But is infact the question asked between Saints fans to help identify people around them.




WHO DAT?

This place is going to be ugly Saturday if the unthinkable happens.

I can not imagine it could be any worse than what it was last night but i do agree. If we lose, some serious bad things will unleashed around here and i suspect 90 per cent will come from the alex hating crowd whom i suspect, some of the them,, are laying in wait for him to make a mistake i know i am just thrilled for this team, after what they have been through in the last several years, to be in this position. i fully believe in them and i really think they will pull this thing out on a last second field goal but no matter what happens, i know I am not going to throw anyone under the bus should the unthinkable happen

I doubt Harbaugh will drop his pants during halftime.

• It might be Justin Smith over the center--put our strength over their weakness.
• Saints may be prepared to deal with the Smith Bros. stunt where Aldon loops behind Justin and heads up through the center, but this should be tried.
• If the Niners have six DBs, four can be man-on-man, two in zone. Also, Willis on Graham, Bowman on Sproles can also be in coverage, at least up to 10 yards. They can also opt to play the run or blitz.
• Man-to-man coverage should play outside shoulder for the first 15 yards (the Saints' quick passes seemed to be mostly on out patterns).
• Zone DBs should play inside shoulder. Most long patterns the Saints use seemed to be posts.

• KILL 'EM ALL

theoretically our Defense should hold the saints to their lowest scoring total all year (we are the best defense they have faced thsi season). As previously stated, scoring points will be the key for the 49ers. I like that Harbs closed practive to media yesterday. He has had two weeks to develop 5-10 trickly redzone plays (remember this is the team that has thrown to our offensive tackle and defensive nose tackle, not to mention fake FGs and onside kicks). I trust that the game plan will be SICK! and customized to the Aints weaknesses on defense. Payton will be ready for trick plays on special teams (his onside kick in the superbowl)...we need to unleash that 10% of the playbook that Roman and Harb have been saving for the playoffs. Lastly, Gore is going to put the "F" back into physical. Loved the article about our trainer, and all of our linemen hitting personal bests in the weight room the last few weeks.

The only way Ill be a big critic is if we have a terrible game plan and get blown out. if we are in it till then end, but play well and lose, I wont be too upset. The saints are a great team, and easily a Super Bowl favorite.

That being said...We are going to f**king crush them!!!

What I find amazing is how many people are on the 49ers in this game, even that t**t Colin Cowherd picked the Niners today in his best bet. You would think most (myself included; flame away) would have fallen in love with the Saints and their Arena League offense.

Still, the majority of analysts have chosen the Saints from what I have seen. A lot of media people choose the Niners, like Cowherd and Bayless, in order to be contrarian and to be "shocking" in order to get listeners/viewers/readers and so they can have their "look at me" moment if it comes true. Who knows what these talking heads really believe, since they are all show and little substance?

Wow, the same guy who said Alex Smith was BEYOND limited is picking us?

if we do not have enough motivation , now comes word that led zepplin says they will reunite and do a free concert at golden gate park should the niners win a super bowl, what more do we need than that

Yo, do you guys agree that the Saints are a "Superbowl team" ?
