the Jets aren't a bad team
Cincinnati disagrees with you.
The Saints are what they are: a defensive liability and a one-dimensional offense. If Brees has a bad game, they lose. If he plays lights-out they win. Sure, the two losses came outdoors, but considering that playoff matchups agains Seattle, San Fran & Carolina, not to mention the Super Bowl, would probably be outside, I'm not getting my hopes up for a playoff win this year. I gave up my seat on the bandwagon after the Pats game when the D showed its true colors. Looking at the schedule ahead, 9-7 would be a good finish for this team.

That's a little harsh.
I see the Saints finishing at 12-4 (#3 seed) and winning one playoff game in the Dome. Hard to go much farther when you can't stop the run and can't run to mitigate the pass rush.

We were beat up on defense today and allowed outside runs due to missing 2 great running stopping safeties and having the third one in/out of the game with injury. Lofton also missed some snaps quote:

the D did more than enough to win that game

ByeBye,
I blame the offense for the Pats loss.

That's been the Jets all year. The week before that they beat the Patriots who are 6-2 and barely lost to those same Bengals. Teams have bad weeks, it happens.
Are the Colts really 20 points better than the 49ers at SF? Teams have off days, injuries, etc, but fact remains Saints have lost to two teams with a combined 12-7 record by a combined 9 points on the road. It happens.
If the Saints win all of their remaining home games only, they'll end up 10-6. They still get to play ATL that has become a dumpster fire and STL. If they win those they end up 12-2 with 2 losses on the road to Seattle and Carolina.
Saints lost to the Rams in 2011 and still were 30 seconds away from hosting the NFC championship game despite having almost no running backs in their last game of the year.
