They save the best for last as we enter December Football with the 10-1 Seattle vs the 9-2 New Orleans Saints. The NFC's two best square off with "Fight for George" (George Halas Trophy) and "Fight for Vince" (Vince Lombardi Trophy) Implications running ramped. The Story Lines are in abundance bur the biggest one is who ever wins has a leg up for home field throughout the trek to the Big Bowl.

Inside the Numbers
Note: NFL Rank in Parenthesis out of 32 Teams

Offensive Rank

NOLA 27.7 ppg (3rd) 415 Yds (3rd) 317.3 Pass Yds (2nd) 97.7 Rush Yds (23rd)

206 27.8 ppg (2nd) 358.5 Yds (12th) 210.5 Pass Yds (25th) 147.9 Rush Yds (2nd)

Defensive Rank

NOLA 17.8 ppg (4th) 309.9 Yds (4th) 198 Pass Yds (3rd) 111.9 Rush Yds (11th)

206 16.3 ppg (2nd) 293.3 Yds (2nd) 180.4 Pass Yds (1st) 112.9 Rush Yds (12th)

Breaking down the Numbers the Saints don't run the Pig well but well enough to get their Pigs Off for the Vertical Passing Game. That Passing Game will going up against the #1 ranked Pass Defense in the "Legion of Boom" minus CB Brandon Browner. The Saints boast the #2 Passing game on Sunday and #9 will have all Weapons on display. TE Jimmy "Big Red of NOLA" Graham and WR Marquis Colston are the Top Targets for #9.    

The Seahawks have the #2 Running Game on Sunday thanks to the Feet of QB Russell Wilson and RB Marshawn Lynch aka Beats Mode aka "Taste the Rainbow". The Saints much-improved "D" and Run D (Ranked 11th) will be tested as Saints D-Coordinator Rob Ryan has done more than a masterful job.

The game will come down to will the Saints Defense travel and the takeaways. For the Seahawks is will the good Offensive Team show up or the mediocre one that has trouble putting points on the board and moving the Pig? This has the making of the best Monday Night Tilt of 2k13 and to Saints and Hawks Nation...Prepare Yourself!

Saints from Seahawks Nation...Sorry we're Loud!
