The Saints aren’t going to be a disaster in 2012 because Drew Brees will probably be perfect four to six times. But as currently built, this Saints team is a seven win team. Max.

I understand you don’t want to admit a team that has won 37 games the last three years is going to be lucky to go 8-8 but you’ll understand when they are tied at 31 in the fourth quarter next Sunday with maybe the NFL’s worst team, the Kansas City Chiefs.

It’s not even October and the bounties, suspensions, awful defense, and interim coaches already have me exhausted. Watching ex-Saints Tracy Porter and Reggie Bush look fantastic just adds to my sinking feeling about this season. The nightmare that is 2012 is just getting started.


The world is ending

Ralph Malbrough is driving the poop bus, who's riding on his bus?

Well from what I have seen I wouldn't say they have proved anything to show us otherwise. I still think we can squeak into the playoffs though.

We can do but all the team needs to come together, after seeing these last two games I've prepared myself so I don't get disappointed this season

I want to win the Super Bowl, if we have a low win season we get a good draft pick

Re: Forecast: 2012 Saints aren’t going anywhere special

You know, I have no problem with articles like this. It just shows who the band-wagoners are and who is willing to be patient and wait for the ship to right itself. If this guy wants to give up, fine, go ahead and give up.

But when this group is able to find their focus and play their game again, he better stay away, and not start writing articles about how he knew it the whole time.

We have a roster full of talented people (mostly on offense, unfortunately) and we have a new, smart defensive coordinator that, I believe, will figure out a way to field a marginally competent squad with the tools he has. He wouldn't have been around in the 'Not For Long' if he was a cold-blooded idiot. More importantly, he wouldn't have taken the gig in the first place if he didn't think there was any chance of succeeding.

I'm finding it difficult to disagree with what he's saying. Y'all may not like it - hell I don't like it - but we suck right now and that's just accurate.

Re: Forecast: 2012 Saints aren’t going anywhere special

Sometimes when you are willing to accept what is "right now", it makes you a bandwagoner. WTFE!! He is speaking the truth. It is what it is. If we continue like this, it is what will happen.

I am still optimistic but I am not going to bash somebody because he is speaking the truth. I still have faith that we can turn it around and finish respectable.

Re: Forecast: 2012 Saints aren’t going anywhere special

I know its just a matter of time for us to get this thing together... but will it be too late.... the wild card spots will have a pretty good record, so winning the division will be our best shot... Wow, I'm sounding like the forty-niners from a few years ago... (NOT GOOD) .... Im not giving up..... Just a lil concerned and pissed off at the same time....
