Never seen this before! Now how do they imitate the crowd noise of a world record holding stadium?

How about erecting a Space Needle in the french quarter.

Maybe they are just attempting to remind the Saints players where they belong, which is below the Seahawks... LOL I guess they will try anything...

Replicating crowd noise is one thing...but wow, just wow. I wonder if Amazon is getting a rush order of 53 blue jerseys?

Funny Yoder! I wouldn't put it past them though and I doubt it would help replicate the Legion of Boom.

What?

No billboard 20 miles south of Seattle to boast their one trophy?:)

Meanwhile, this just emphasizes how desperate the Saints are about this Saturday.

Maybe they should look into hiring the shrink from "Office Space", so that he can put them in a Superdome trance before keeling over.

It's pretty obvious that Peyton is taking this weekend match up very seriously. The question is what advantage would you gain by painting another teams logo on your practice field? Is it the idea of acclimating your players to the field they are going to play at? If so, how on Earth are they going to replicate the 136+ decibels??? It isn't the field they should worry about, it's the insane 12th man.

I do have to give credit to them for trying anything and everything here, that's what's bothering me a bit on this match up.

Now I'm doubting their commitment to duplicating conditions for Saturday. It seems the Saints declined to practice at Bellevue Highs field because it is outside. They prefer to practice indoors just like at their comfy dome. I predict more raod woes ahead.

Did they put up a scoreboard that reads 34-7 like last time, too??

Love it! I posted just about exactly the same thing on some other football board. That shut up the "Who Dat" crowd right away.

I wonder if Drew was dunking balls in water and trying to throw them in 25mph winds.

LOL!! Good one!

The whole putting the Seahawk logo on the field is a MAJOR sign of desperation. I'm giving 2 more
points. SEAHAWKS by 12. Hawks 34 - 20 (should put this prediction in the Normey thread).

[Hawktawk]

Exactly Moe. Give Peyton credit for trying but at a certain point it just showing how much the Hawks are in their head big time. I'm nervous as hell like always but this is what the guys fought so hard for, to have the playoffs at our house. I hope its like 2005 the next 2 weeks.....

[Seahawks4Ever]

Putting a Seahawk logo in the middle of their field is the epitome of being in the Saints head.

This either a weak attempt to make our Seahawks over confident or the Saints have lost before they even got on the plane to come here.

[RiverDog]

I thought it was pretty silly, too. You might as well put scare crows of Richard Sherman in their locker room.
