That's what I think. They started off pretty terrible last year and turned it around. It will happen this year too.

I cant say the same thing. If you look at the QBs we played last year, you might change your mind. Our schedule is much tougher and if we lose to the Browns, which could well happen, the season is over.

We lost to 2 playoff teams in week 1 and 2. Are Tampa and the Browns in the same league as Minnesota and new England?

We face Atlanta in Atlanta week 3 so if we get past the Browns we could still be 1-2. After the bye its going to get difficult to reach .500 if we arent there before the bye.

I think they will be better too. This week I am predicting at least 1 punt.

They say steel sharpens steel

This week Saints D vs Cleveland O will be Jello mushing Jello

Isn’t that kinda like saying “ I think this elevator here in the basement is going to go up”?

Bold prediction.

With our offense, all we have to do it not give up the big play and we should win. Just so happened we gave it up 4 or 5 times which is unacceptable.

My issue with the play calling is that we've gone away from what made us successful last year. It doesnt matter if we get gashed occasionally in the run game because teams won't be able to keep up with us if thats their game plan. We weren't good against the run last year on a per play basis, but teams had to give up on it after the first half or risk falling way behind.

Play your 2 coverage linebackers and switch up the looks. Stop the deep ball and give the CBs help over the top.

If Hyde runs for 100 yards next week, I'd bet the saints win as long as he's not breaking off big plays. Thats the bend, dont break defense that we need with our top rated offense. Tyeler Davison is decent but he should never play the 2nd most snaps on the D-line.

We win that game if stop the deep ball and its that simple. Just a bad game plan going in.

I definitely want to get high, turn on some Hendrix, turn down the TV sound, and watch the Saints games.

You are a fricking idiot drinking the koolaid if you believe that we can turn this season around if we lose to the Browns.

That would be 2 teams that probably dont make the playoffs. What happens when we face Eagles, Vikings, Steelers, Ravens? Thats not counting the rest of the Division or the rest of the NFC East.

NM. We going to the ship.

You are right. It just so happens that anything, includes the Saints defense being allergic to football.

True, but you said it CAN'T happen, which is not the case.

It could happen. Just extremely unlikely. We started 0-2 6 times and are 1-5 getting to the playoffs. We lose to the Browns Im confident we dont make the playoffs this year due to the schedule.
