It may not be the Beast Quake, but Marshawn Lynch had another great game against New Orleans in the Playoffs as Seattle was able to outlast the Saints 23-15 and advance to the NFC Conference Finals next weekend.
The New Orleans Saints played a much better game on defense as they faced off with the Seattle Seahawks this time, but there were plenty of other problems. It was a hard-fought effort and a really good season, but the road woes have got to stop.
My hands may be white from all the chalk I pick, you know there will be one supreme surprise this week. But where? Since we went 3-1 last week - losing with the wretched Bengals, like everyone else - let's try our hand at the most heavenly weekend of a most horrible winter.
The New Orleans Saints have lost a few players to injured reserve over the course of the season, but right now, they're looking extremely healthy for those still on the active roster. With all 53 players at practice and some new methods implemented by coach Sean Payton, the Saints are as ready as they'll ever be.
This is arguably the best week of the NFL season. Who'll make the plays to remember this weekend? Lets take a look at the match-ups.

Six weeks ago, the New Orleans Saints suffered their worst loss of the season in a game where they were absolutely demolished by the Seattle Seahawks. Immediately afterward, head coach Sean Payton told his players to put the game behind them because they would get another shot. Payton was right as the Saints are meeting the Seahawks again, and there are four big things they need to do, in order to win.
The first time the Seattle Seahawks and New Orleans Saints met in Week 13, it was for NFC Supremacy. Now in Week 19, the true force of the NFC will be revealed.
It's the one thing that surrounds everyone at the game. For Seattle it's a comfort, for their opposition, it can sometimes be a nightmare.
Seattle has already faced, and beaten, both the Saints and 49ers this season but not the Packers. Does the unknown help or hurt a team in the Playoffs?
When Seattle traded for Percy Harvin during the offseason, they weren't expecting to only have him for one game this season. Now that the Playoffs are set, it looks like Harvin may be able to return for Seattle's next game.
3 and 3. That's how I rolled as the calendar turned to November. Not great. Not even good, quite frankly. But better than October ended, for sure.
We're half-way through the 2013 NFL season and the one thing I think I know is that there are no great teams. There are good teams like the Seahawks, the Saints, the 49ers, the Broncos and the Chiefs but no great teams. The only other thing I know is that all you need these days is to get into the play-offs and then all bets are off.
