The Saints have been waiting on this rematch for years.
In 2013 the Seahawks completely EMBARRASSED the Saints in prime time in a game that people thought would go down to the wire, and determine who would eventually be at the top of the NFC.
Just over a month after that 27 point loss and beat down, the Seahawks eliminated the Saints from the NFC Playoffs in the Divisional round.
I fully expect the Saints to come out this game and play HARD. They want to get their revenge especially at home in front of the home fans who have been dying to see a rematch.
Another person who has this game marked is former Saints fan favorite, Jimmy Graham.
After being traded by the Saints, Graham is going to want to go out there and beat his former team.
This could be the most entertaining game of the Saints year to watch, but in the end I think the Seahawks and the Legion of Boom edge out the Saints. in a nail biter.
Prediction: Seahawks 24, Saints 21
Record: 4-3
Next: San Fran
