Who else thinks the Saints will win out just to mess up the draft?

It is going to happen. We'll go on a streak get back in the playoff conversation then get knocked out on a hopkins last second field goal to send washington to the playoffs

I don't think we will win out, but I see us winning some to make us get a lower draft pick.

Saints beat Jax and that last game versus Atlanta could be a repeat of last year. A meaningless win last year versus Tampa cost the Saints a few draft slots, secured Tampa the #1, and allowed Atlanta the #8. I could very easily see them beating Atlanta and screwing up another potential top 8 pick. That game could very well be CSP last and I can easily see Brees having one of his flawless efforts.

If Browner can continue to be a strong leader on D, I think we have a good chance of a high draft pick.

@ TB & @ ATL will be tough match-ups and Jax & Det are playing well as of late. So, you're right we'll probably win 3 of 4.

As far as being in playoff contention, there is way too much to happen for that to be a slight possibility. As it stands, either Minn or Sea have to lose out . StL has to lose 1 more. Plus TB & Atl can only win 2 games the rest of the way.

The NFC East will be irrelevant bc they'll only send 1 team to the playoffs.

Oh, it will happen. The Saints are the kings of the #11 - #14 draft pick.

We are almost literally eliminated from playoff contention so I don't think they'll claw back to the conversation. It's not mathematically impossible yet but it's almost there. It's just a formality at this point.

But I generally agree with you. They somehow will frick this up and go 7-9, it's just what they do.

I could see us beating the Falcons, but that's about it.

at this point - no game is a sure win. in fact we should probly just consider them an L and if we win, it will be kind of a shock.

A lower draft pick is worth sweeping the falcons

I don't think I could tell the difference if they did "mess up" the draft from their previous " mess ups" of the draft.

We aren't making the playoffs haha.

But we aren't going to tank, either. I see us finishing 7-9.

I'm gonna be pissed just like I was after the Tampa game last year if that's the case.

I just can't see this team winning more than 2 more games (especially w/ 2 on the road). I think we beat Jax & Atl and finish 6-10.

Are you prepared to lose out? If not, prepare yourself.

Meh... I'm good with 1-1 and a top 5 pick. Especially when that win sent their season into a tailspin... they've managed 1 win since we beat them.

This is why I like Browner. Man is doing work to ensure we get a top draft pick
