Considering how terrible their ol was supposed to be, I’m pretty surprised at their success

They’re 5-0 at home and 1-2 on the road. They should’ve lost to a bottom four team at home. I’m not that impressed.



To be fair, we lost to Tampa Bay at home and should've lost to the Browns at home

Panthers are good, I think we split.

They beat bucs, boys, bengals, skins, eagles and ravens.

The rest of this season will be like that game we just won.

We'll win the next two or three and the rams will drop one or two and everyone will get hyped.

We'll go into the last three games dead even, and drop one to the panthers, and every one will shite their pants, then the rams will Lose their last game, and both the rams and the saints will end their seasons 13-3 and we get home field and the NFC championship in the dome because of the tie breaker

My only other thread was marveling at his pass to Thomas in the 4th quarter?


So are you admitting to throwing shite against the wall and seeing what sticks?

McCaffery and Olsen scare me the most. Especially if Klein or Coleman draw coverage. Newton's arm doesn't really scare me because he can't fit in tight windows so our DBs will get a little slack.

The team that we are a fan of is playing the games. Not sure what you mean by that.



It's not like Brees is showing up asking about the Panthers. That's the beauty of being a fan. We can have these conversations about games months down the road, salray cap situations for next year, our potential draft position, and it doesn't matter for shite when it comes to the next opponent.

Ginn abused them.

While that was great, I'm not expecting much out of Ginn when he returns. He was really, really bad before the injury this year and killed drives. I wouldn't mind a deep shot to him here or there but I'm not expecting 2017 Ginn coming back, especially out of injury.

I think that the Saints keep rolling and make the week 17 game irrelevant for playoff seeding.

It would be really, really cool to have the #1 seed locked up by then to let Brees rest and Bridgewater start.

Ginn should be back for both games, which will help open things up on offense.

Their defense doesn't worry me anyway.

I'm curious to see how we play McCaffrey, especially since their new system is checkdown first instead of deep bomb first. He's leading them in receptions.

But we've done a MUCH better job covering backs out of the backfield with Davis. Last year we had no LB that could stick with him (or other speedy backs). Davis will make a huge difference.

I think we'll actually win both games in a more convincing fashion than last year.

I think the only game we lose is @Carolina, though the Eagles game will be tough. It’s in the Dome though.

I think we finish 14-2 so we’ll need the Rams to drop one more in order to get the 1 seed

The offense has been so much better without Ginn. If he comes back, I’d let him run about 5 go routes a game to clear out the short or intermediate routes, but I’m not going to make him a big piece of the offense. TreQuan is getting better and better. I’m not going to stunt his development by taking his snaps and putting some guy who can barely catch in the game.

Carolina is what it is

Their D personnel doesn't scare me but Rivera is kind of like Sean's Yang when it comes to running and scheming his side of the ball.

Rivera knows defense and how to give Sean some fits.

As far as Jackson goes...I think Drew is licking his chops. An aggressive rookie against Drew seems like a lock for a pump fake, double move.

It is the Carolina Offense that should concern most Saint fans. Cam's dual threat ability, CMac, and if they can get Moore going, with Olsen...that really opens up their offense.

Key to our matchup on D will be getting Davenport healthy and ready to roll. I think our DLine if healthy can wreck that OL and get Cam off his game.

The Rams toughest remaining games are all at home, and I don't even know how "tough" that Seahawks team really is anymore. They have the Bears in Chicago in December, that could be a tough game for them if the weather is bad. Overall though I'd rather have their schedule than ours.

Yep. One week at a time. We have just played three damn good teams and we are still in the middle
Of a murderers row schedule. These games with Carolina will probably decide division. We need to keep winning also for a
Shot a first seed. We need some teams like rams and Carolina to start shitting bed on long losing streaks. Lol.

I really want the one seed, but I see us splitting with Carolina.
