I have a hard time taking the Cowboys seriously.

Seriously.

I felt the same way at 13-0, and then their pass rush fricked with Drew worse than Tampa did.

They will win the NFC East, and I wouldn't be surprised if they actually win a playoff game. However, they are not winning this game.

it just depends on which team shows up. The scary thing is dez bryant (their best player on offense) is about 50% right now. I've been watching the games and he looks hurt.

Miami is at home, on a Monday night and their D is beat up. I say W. Chicago has been New Orleans' bitch lately. I think Saints win that one. IMO, New England is a prime candidate for that loss.

This stretch will suck the most, but I agree with your picks here.

We always lose chicken shite games like St. Louis or Carolina.

We won't lose against San Francisco, Miami, Chicago, or Seattle

Tampa Bay, check that one off the list. That's a game 99/100 teams lose in that situation and we pulled it out

That's what 13+ win teams do

How about 13-1 teams with a 2 touchdown lead?

Exactly...I like what I see with this years team. It reminds me of the 09 Miami game, where we kept grinding through games and had the will to win

I think a W in New England will be mighty hard.
They are getting things together, and will have Gronk back by the game.

The rest of the schedule doesn't seem terrible. Some of the L's could be W's easily, and that includes ATL if changes aren't made soon.

That's a pretty bold statement, man.

I see losses against the Bears and Seahawks.

the 2 games that scare me the most. Seattle does for obvious reasons, but the Chicago game worries me more than New England.

If the Saints go into the bye week sitting at 5-1, they will be in really good shape. I couldn't complain about that.

Agreed.

The Saints could beat the Patriots pretty handily if they jump out in front early. This Patriot team isn't the team of old. No rushing game, inconsistent passing game, and an average defense.

Tom Brady and Bill Belichick have one thing in their head: 38-17. They have this game circled. You don't think Brady's gonna be ready? He was BENCHED last time they played.

The Saints D can find a way to frick with Cutler. The question is do we know enough about Aaron Kromer's O-line to do it?

san fran is dogshit
miami are pretenders


so really, i can see them going 4-0 over that stretch. Will they? probably not, but who the frick have the bears played...seattle too?

seattle has a 2nd year qb, that's a weakness regardless of how good he is

cutler gonna cutler

The only game on our schedule that is close to set-in-stone as an L is @Seattle .. That ferocious D + the crowd noise there will make it extremely difficult to win. It's not guaranteed, but extremely likely.

I see us dropping at least 2 of these, more likely 3:

@CHI
@NE
vs DAL
vs SF
@ATL

And then dropping at least one game to a cream puff, because we always do. Maybe Carolina or St Louis.

12-4 or 11-5 seems likely to me, but 13-3 is very possible.
