NFL.com made this shite?



Really? Wow. Who made it?

They have some really great people like Mayock and Casserly, but the nfl.com only guys usually suck arse big time.

Mayock liked our draft and that works for me. I don't always agree with him but he does know his shite. Way more than someone like Kiper or the Crypt Keeper than espn has.

Elliot Harrison is the same idiot that did not include the Saints 52 Giants 49 2015 game in the top 20 games of 2015. His logic was that it was an XBOX game. All the while the NFL showed replays of said game as one of the top games of 2015. Anytime he talks about the Saints, he has a negative agenda. When he says,

Oh boy ... don't particularly enjoy placing the Saints this low...
what he is really saying is that he enjoys placing them low. He is a liar.

I think Oakland is in position to win an AFC WC spot. I still like KC for the division. Denver will plummet and SD who knows with SD.

That's a joke. We are probably bottom half, but 30 is ridiculous.

Vegas o/u wins for Saints at 7 is ahead of:
Bears (6.5)
Bucs (6.5)
Jags (6)
Titans (5.5)
49er's (5)
Browns (4.5)

Also tied with Falcons, Lions, Dolphins, Chargers.

Saints power rankings should be at worst #26 and realistically somewhere around #15-20.

They play in the AFC and have two teams ahead of them in their division (plus the manic Chargers who could be up or down).

If things play out well they could be good, but I don't see them going over 8 wins without a lot of help.

Lots of good to solid starters are now gone and I think people are underestimating their value, OL isn't that good, RB play was real spotty last year, and you now have the worst QB in the division or the greenest.

Oak and KC are both really good and SD is an anomaly. Their division is rough and they looked primed for a SB hangover.

Teams that I believe the Saints are definitely better than:
Raiders
Titans
Rams
Eagles
Redskins
Bears
Browns
Lions
Jets
Falcons
Bucs
Jags

Teams the Saints may be better than:
49'ers
Chargers
Texans
Cowboys
Chiefs
Ravens
Colts
Dolphins
Bills
Vikings
Giants

Teams definitely better than the Saints:
Patriots
Steelers
Panthers
Broncos
Seahawks
Packers
Bengals
Cardinals

Thus, by my estimation, we should be ranked somewhere between 9 and 20. Definitely not #30.

No more Peyton. He was such an awesome QB and not a liability in the regular season last year.

In reality a conservative offense with Sanchez/Lynch relying on the running game and a smothering D is going to get 9-12 wins.

Idiot

This guy. I've seen him on tv a few times too. He is REALLY bad. Came over from Fox Sports.

Only been covering the nfl for 10 years, as opposed to people that actually played or worked in the nfl.

Basically he could be any one of us (and maybe he is).

It's not that I don't like them, I just believe that they are a year away. People are jumping on the bandwagon a little too early here. And they certainly aren't a top 11 team in the league. Based off of what?

Uhhhhhhh. We have the best qb in a division that has Cam Newton.

A lot of our games were close last year too. We just couldn't win fourth quarters.

Hell if drew is healthy and the refs learn how to count we could have swept the fricking NFC champions.

Nfl.com guy is dumb.

Our roster is paper thin and we keep kicking the can down the road in regards to salaries.

What makes you say this? I'd put the Falcons and Saints on the even list.

Uhm, Falcons can say this too, probably with every other average team.
