5, Chargers at home - W. With a chance to break Jonny U's 50 year old touchdown record, Brees has a night of the ages. Big win in primetime over his former team. Sproles shows off even more than usual.

that has to be sweet for Drew to have that opportunity to break that record against his old team. We will win that game, the Saints are hard to beat at the Dome in primetime.

The number I keep coming up with in my head is 10-6 for the 2012 season. I think not having Coach Payton will hurt but not as much as all these national pundits suggest. Again, barring any serious injuries to key players, I think that is reasonable.

Denver away - L.

I think we will hear all of that outdoor element bullshite that week. Oh god the altitude will effect the Saints offense, HOLY CRAP!!!

I think that game sets up for us nicely. Denver has a hard schedule starting out. I think their defense is not as good as people think. I mean last year they struggled against the better QB's they faced (Brady,Rodgers,Stafford). When they were on their winning streak, they beat those bad arse teams like the RAIDERS, CHIEFS, JETS, VIKINGS, and BEARS!!! That is nothing to write home about IMO. They will have a new defensive coordinator this year so we'll see how that turns out. And I think Manning is still a big mystery at this point, I still have my doubts about his health, just my opinion.
