Greetings, Raider Nation! Today is Championship Game Day, and there are two games which will determine who goes to this year’s Super Bowl. We begin today in New Orleans at the Superdome for the NFC title game between the Saints and the Rams.
What a difference a coach makes! Before these two teams hired their current coaches, they were both godawful. The Saints floundered for years under the likes of Jim Mora and Mike Ditka, but suddenly became dangerous when they hired Sean Payton. He and free agent signing Drew Brees turned the team into bona fide contender and the two have already won a Super Bowl together.
