My Prediction: **Saints 26** , Ravens 24 It could also be the 49ers, but even though I’m a 49ers fan from WAAAY back, I hope the Saints make it after what happened to them in the conference title game last season (which STILL makes me mad). I mean, Drew Brees can’t have _that_ many more chances left to win another league title, can he? ---
