We'd probably on the same plane as the rings, not on an eccentricity, so won't see the rings.

I have a feeling Earth's gravity would also disrupt the rings and cause them to disintegrate pretty quickly. Also, Saturn's gravity would cause insane tectonic and volcanic activity on Earth, basically turning it into Io. So yeah, there's a number of reasons we wouldn't see the rings.
