Labor talks will hammer something out, just before Training Camp, and we're gonna party.

14-2 and another Ring!

You mean 17-2. :doh:

Undefeated, *******!

I'm thinking the same. Things now are different from the 80's dispute. Primarily, too much money involved. I think the NFL is waiting to the last minute as a scare tactic and get a fews things they want this time around.

Saints will likely win 10-12 games. Brees alone is going to get you 7-9 wins and there is no way we will have the RB revolving door again. That was a strange set of circumstances. I don't ever recall a team losing that many in one season but I'm sure there is one.

The draft, I don't see us finding much but average players unless we trade up and that's not going to happen.

One of the things to keep in mind is that you can bet that Drew Brees is not going to have 22 interceptions this time around. Many of the interceptions were balls that were tipped off of people who were new to the team (Ladell, Jimmy, etc.) With more stability in both the RB and WR corps, you can bet the interceptions will decrease. Untimely interceptions basically handed victories to the Browns and Cardinals last season.

I believe Drew will throw about 35 touchdowns and just 14 interceptions this season en route to a 12-4 record.

Oh I'm sure we'll have eleventy-billion more chances to answer prediction posts.

I don't know when we've had a more brutal schedule however. Its been a long while.

I am predicting a far more consistent Saints team this year with a tight defense and an offensive team that nearly always maneuvers themselves to the receiving end of an ingenious Drew Brees pass.

They got a taste o' blood during their 2009 championship and got a strong dose of embarrassing reality about their individual and team inconsistencies in 2010.

I'm betting on the BOI (Big Ol' Improved) Saints for 2011. I still believe! Geaux Saints.

Hope you all are doing well. My Sundays are awful lonely these days...
