well if we do not play a complete game, we all know what will happen.

No fumbles, int's, penalties, dropped balls, bad decisions(throwing the ball,) poor blocking, missed assignments, no adjustments....the list can go on and on.
so we have to play like, we have a leprechaun holding two four leaf clover shoved our ass. in other words!

I like the Steelers by halftime. Laws of physics state that a body in motion stays in motion, and our motion is to give the ball to the Steelers frequently. We turn the ball over too much and we don't score when we get a turnover. Those trends are hardened this season. A perfect game might do it, but there is no evidence of that possibility this season

Brees throws 2 INTs in the 1st half, one in the 4th and Saints lose 38-21.

The Saints O line comes out with an attitude and finally plays hard enough to win a tough battle. I'm hoping we come out of this game healthy.

On all plays, run a Hail Mary, keeping a TE and RB in to block. Send Colston, Jimmy Graham and Meachem deep on one side. Ensures that Brees interceptions are far downfield and don't hurt so much

Yessir. It is really as much to do with attitude as it is about anything else.

Honestly when I saw our schedule this season and how weak it was for the most part I had a feeling there would be problems. Historically we tend to play according to the level of our opponent. If we play a crappy team, we play crappier.. if we play great team, we play greater. We seldom get blown out by a much better team and seldom blow out a much worse team...

I believe we will rise to the Steeler's, beyond what people are expecting. No one expected us to put it on the Patriots like we did last year but we did.

Other than the Vikings we have yet to play a team that was "expected" to be good this season.

I have to quote my self... BINGO!

The Good:
We did as I expected and rose to the Steeler's and beat them.

The Bad:
I only see 3 games out of the rest that we can Rise too. The rest of the teams are weak. Those three are not what I consider strong teams, just teams with winning records. Seattle is not that good, Atlanta and Baltimore..... maybe. Tampa bay is not that good, we have proven that.
