Its this line of thinking that has no place in football. Needing a game more does not make you better. The team has numerous problems. They stunk it up at home against a terrible Tampa team that every one else blows out. They needed this Detroit game more too. How did that work out?

But it exists in the NFL with a 16 game schedule, especially in non-division games

No doubt

Except for Pitt, but this is true.

I saw us come out and play our best football of the year, on the road, until the last 5 minutes of the game.

It fricking sucked, but there was def visible improvement on both sides of the ball against a quality opponent

the Saints are still very much alive in their division race

come on man.

I meant Green Bay might be more relaxed and not as desperate as the Saints will be next week. Is that really such an outrageous thought?

I know this season has been a disappointment so far but every year since Payton has been the coach the Saints have had at least one quality home win.

for starters, how could you forget 2008 when the Saints beat the hell out of Green Bay?

I don't feel all that confident that we'll win but it won't shock me if we win either.

this could be a redemption game for the Saints on national television after getting embarrassed by the Cowboys a few weeks ago.

if we get blown out at home next week, I'll shut up and you can come tell me how much a of moron I am then.

in fact, I may just take a break from this board the rest of the season.

no big deal to me.
