this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Seven games left... We play 4 teams with a winning record, 3 at home. We play 3 teams with losing records or .500, 1 at home. I can live with that....

Playing tougher teams, most of which are at home, should harden and sharpen us and thus give us the edge come playoff time.

One game at a time. We play well against tuff teams & not so well against lame teams. The remaining schedule may work out very good for us. It will keep them focused week to week.

Yep, so basically in a nutshell, our schedule strength is meaningless. If we play well, we win.

After Sunday, we'll be favored in every remaining game.

GOOD!

We suck at playing bad teams.

I dont do the "sizing-up-the-schedule" thing anyway.

Luckily, three of the hardest teams - the Giants, the Lions, and the Failclowns - we get to face in the Superdome (the road game against the Failclowns notwithstanding).

Agreed. You have to beat the best to be the best.
