That may be the case, but I think going against what appears to be the best D in the league with the likes of Thomas, Bush, and Mike Bell at RB will hurt. Favre is still looking good. It would be a heck of a match up.
Vikings defense is good, but not tons better than both the Eagles and Giants D, and you witnessed what we did to both of them, and we did it to Philly at Philly. Vikings also gave up 400+ yards last week to a bad team.
Pierre Thomas and Mike Bell may be stoppable, but then you have to worry about the passing game. If you worry about the passing game, Bell and Thomas will run all over you. Basically the passing game opens up the whole game for the Saints.
