The Seahawks have the loudest stadium in the NFL. The Saints at least have some experience playing in it though their last result wasn’t exactly outstanding, a 7 – 34 loss.
There are lots of sentimental reasons to root for the Saints, but all the smart money is on the Seahawks as you would expect from the top seed in the NFC. You might argue that a short week is a disadvantage though is just as likely that the bye week is a greater liability.
The Seahawks are a straight expansion team founded in 1976 and there’s no particular reason to hate them (unless you’re a ‘9ers fan). The Who Dats are another expansion from 1967 and after years of obscure futility started to show some life after Katrina under Quarterback Drew Brees.

Good pass. Time to get out of bounds. Instead an illegal forward pass. Game Over.
