The rest of this schedule is just brutal

Has to be in the top 3 of toughest schedules to go.

We'll go 6-0

You are forgetting the Panthers who is chasing us has a schedule that is pretty brutal too!

Thankfully we have basically a second bye week before a huge prime time game in Seattle.

Gonna be a great game.

I think we can go 5-2 in this stretch with most likely losses at Seattle and at Carolina.

I think we can take San Fran at home. They don't have any WRs that scare me. Have a great run game, but you can't stick to that when Brees puts up 30 at home on the reg.
Falcons - ain't even worried.
Seattle will be a tough game. I think we can win it, but I'm not going in expecting us to.
Carolina - another tough game but I think we win at home.
@ St Louis - pass rush is a little scary, but I think we can ground and pound on them.
@ Carolina. We almost never play great games there and this late and this cold...have to give the edge to the Panthers.

Realized your forgot the last Bucs game at home. We take that easy.

Hopefully it will give is a little taste of some cold weather game action for a potential trip to New York

And we might have to sweep Carolina to win the division.

agree. but, it looks like there is good chance that the 2 wild cards will come out of the south and west.

Jesus. What a joke.

49ers - Super physical team, great D, have beaten us twice in a row. Coming off a loss, they can't afford to lose to a conten

Two things. We almost beat them last season with the worst D in the league and a very inconsistent O.

I like the Saints at home, with, hopefully, improved OLine play and a hungry running game. San Fran is throwing for about 190yards a game. Make their QB beat you. It shouldn't be a repeat of the Jets game.

@ Atlanta (Thursday night) - Short week. Yes they are having a terrible year but its the Falcons.

Won't be a walk, but a should win.

@ Seattle - The biggest home advantage of any team other than us, best Defense in the league, great running game. Toughest game on the schedule

---

I agree. Definitely the toughest game. However, Seattle has looked downright pedestrian at home at times. I'd expect a good showing from both teams and a good game. They can win it, but the odds are not in their favor.

quote:

---

Panthers - spectacular defense, 1 game behind us in the division. They are legit, and they have always given us problems even when they sucked.

---

I'm not completely sold on them yet. They beat a San Fran team that they knew would run the ball. The Saints can throw on them and will. Close game, but I give the nod at home.

quote:

---

@Rams - for some reason they have given us fits in the past, even in years when we've had great teams. Very physical defense

---

This game scares me. For all intents and purposes, should be a win. But smashed in between two games with the Panthers, could easily be a loss.

@Panthers

Depends on the health of both teams at this point. Panthers are always a tough win for the Saints in Carolina. Nothing guaranteed here.

Fact is, I could see two more losses here. Depending on the need for the Tampa game, 12-4 isn't out of the question.

Yeah I just saw Carolina's schedule and that is really rough.

Beating SF and Seattle are crucial to getting the top seed since they are the biggest threats. Glad SF is at home.
