Saints Tickets - Reviewing the Saints Season Part 1

It's always interesting to take a look back at your trhoughts early in the season. here's a look at the beginning of the 2009 Saints season and links to my previews prior to each game.



Lions vs Saints - The debut of Matt Stafford and the beginning of a historic Saints season

Eagles vs Saints - Here's where it began to look like the Saints were for real. They passed their first big test on the road against a quality opponent, beating the Philadelphia Eagles on the road 48-22

Bills vs Saints - I remember watching this one from Korea, thinking the Bills were going to be a good team. Turns out they aren't but the Saints are. Saints 27 Bills 7

Jets vs Saints - Here's where things begin to get interesting. The Jets were undefeated at the time and looking good. They left defeated. Saints 24 Jets 10

Giants vs Saints - Here's where the Saints buried the doubts of their skeptics. The New York Giants were 5-0 coming into the Superdome and left whipped, never to be the same team.

Cowboys vs Saints Tickets - All on the Line

New Orleans Saints tickets have delivered in 2009. They're about to deliver more. After running out to a 13-0 record, the Saints are about to bring the Dallas Cowboys into the Superdome in a Prime Time Saturday night game. Furthermore, the Cowboys are fighting for their playoff lives, undergoing their usual December swoon. With New Orleans putting their perfect record on the line and Dallas battling for survival, Cowboys vs Saints tickets are the real deal.

From the Saints perspective it can't be expected to be a walk in the park. New Orleans has been winning ugly. A desperate win against the Washington Redskins followed by a tough win over an injury depleted Atlanta Falcons has exposed a Saints defense fighting through its own plague of injuries. Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys bring one of the stronger running games in the NFL and a stout run defense. Against that defense New Orleans will pit a #1 NFL offense and a bend but don't break defense that seems to have a knack for the big play. It's one of the biggest games of the year, in a national spotlight, and Cowboys vs Saints will definitely deliver the action.

Saints @ Falcons Tickets - Georgia Dome - Falcons Reeling Saints Stealing

Saints @ Falcons tickets could be a little bit of history. The New Orleans Saints are playing with a four leaf clover on their shoulders and could very well finish the 2009 NFL season at 16-0. Earlier in the season a Falcons vs Saints matchup turned into a slugfest as the Saints escaped with a win in the Superdome. At the time it seemed as if the Saints would have another tough contest in the Georgia Dome. But things have changed.

The Falcons have been bitten big time by the injury bug. Matt Ryan is out with a turf toes, Michael Turner is injured again, and nothing is going well for Atlanta. Now, as Falcons vs saints in the Georgia Dome looms, Atlanta fans look like they're turning on their Dirty Birds. Michael Vick and the Philadelphia Eagles just plastered Atlanta and Falcons fans cheered him. Not good.

The New Orleans Saints, for their part, just pulled off an amazing win againts the Washington Redskins. Despite a battered Saints secondary, a weak Reggie Bush, and adverse weather, the Saints pushed the Redskins into overtime and sealed the deal on a field goal. Looking ahead, only the Dallas Cowboys look to have a legit shot at beating these Saints and I'm not even convinced the Cowboys are that good. So if you're looking for Saints tickets in the heart of the enemy, Falcons vs Saints tickets in the Georgia Dome sure look good to me.

Redskins vs Saints Tickets - NFC South Title Looms

At first glance it looks like Redskins vs Saints tickets are a pass to watching the New Orleans saints go 12-0 and clinch the NFC South. The Redskins have been less than impressive, embroiled in controversy, and have been one of the most generous teams in the NFL to their opponents.

But wait. Looking at Redskins vs Saints matchups over the past few years and you get a surprising fact. The Redskins have beaten the New Orleans Saints four out of the last six times, the most recent only last season. The Redskins are 15-7 against New Orleans in the last 22 games.

But it would be difficult to give the Washington Redskins even a fighting chance against the Saints unless you invoke the "any given day" rule. New Orleans is 11-0, and enjoying the acclaim of a 38-17 win over the New England Patriots. The Redskins on the other hand, are 3-8 and look like an unsettled team, with Jim Zorn facing down the loss of his job by seasons end. As expected, this Redskins vs Saints contest has New Orleans heavily favored and odds are the NFC South crown is theirs by games end.

Patriots vs Saints Tickets - Superdome - Super Game

Saints fans have been fondling their Patriots vs saints tickets for months and the moment is finally here. The New england Patriots will be coming into the Superdome for a Monday Night Football game that could easily be a precursor of the Super Bowl in Miami.

The Saints are an unprecedented 10-0, a situation few foresaw in the pre-season. Coming off a solid win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers the Saints played a virtually flawless game in Tampa, reversing a disturbing trend of turnovers and come from behind wins. The fly in the ointment is injuries on defense. Cornerback Jabari Greer is a question mark along with Sedrick Ellis, a major factor in rush defense. The New Orleans defense will have a job on their hands holding Tom Brady and the Patriots offense in check. It's a teal test and Patriots vs Saints tickets will go a long way towards revealing just how good this Saints defense is against a top NFL team.

The Saints offense is in good shape however, and that bodes ill for a Patriots defense that isn't living up to past standards. Drew Brees has plenty of weapons. Both Mike Bell and Pierre Thomas have been running well, keeping defenses honest. Marques Colston has been steady and Robert Meacham has had several big games of late. Throw in Tight Ends Jeremy Shockey and Thomas, who's been extremely effective, and the New England defense is in for a tough trial.

Essentially, Patriots vs Saints tickets could offer a pre-view of a the Super Bowl in Miami. Both teams are expected to push deep into the playoffs and the Saints are on track to enjoy a 1st Round bye. Come Monday Night Football time, NFl fans are in for a real treat from the Superdome.
