So is the season still over from some...
 

...of you folks? Or can you now see a little ray of light at the end of the tunnel?

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Papz, i can see the light

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

bah, we lose every game and the season isn't over for me....only thing that changes is I get to bust out my "Aints" bag.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Over... still have 10 games to play

It's not over until the last game is played... 10 or more to go...

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Was it over when the Gremans Bomb Perl Harbor. Germans ? It's not over till we say it's OVER !!! And it's not OVER !

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Had you asked me this 2 weeks ago I would still have said no. However, the opportunity to draft high does have an appeal of it's own.:rolleyes:

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Asking me 2 weeks ago, I would say I'm still watching every game like I always do but a high draft pick looks to be in the cards, now I'm liking our chances if our D gets going

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

If we beat Denver, I promise you we'll make the palyoffs.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

And that's a very big "IF", but it can be done if our defense shows up.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

I Still Believe :bng:

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

I ain't heard no fat lady

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

I've seen a few, but haven't heard one...

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Based on the remaining schedule I can see us losing 3-4 games. Unfortuntely that counts us out based on what I think it will take to get in. We must beat Denver to remain alive.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

I'm optimistic. We still have 2/3 of the season left over, we can still turn this ship around.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Don't take care of Denver and it's panic mode. Digging out of 2-5, love to see it but it would have to be a comedy of errors on other teams.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

We should beat Tampa and Carolina so that gets us to 3-1 in division games. We beat ATL twice and we should be in. If we are going to lose it affects us less if it's the Broncos and Raiders. We are running with Chicago and Green Bay for the wildcard. We can still pull out 9-7. 10-6 is going to be tough, but not impossible.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

i see a light, but im sure its a train.

but win or lose, Im a Saints fan, and Im going to New Orleans to
root my azz off for them.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

you got married, and didnt tell US!!!!!

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

By the way things are shaping up in the NFC, the Saints will have to win 11 to make the playoffs. That's 9 out of 10 the rest of the way. Possible yes. Likely no.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Incase you haven't noticed our run started 3 weeks ago. Ofcourse it isn't over :)

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Breesfan! Where ya been! We've missed you! :)

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

The fat lady is sitting on our chest eating ham sammiches.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

3 more losses and it's over.

NFC is too strong.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

That's why we will win the next 9 out of 10. 11-5

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Jenkins could have possibly changed the whole team mindset with that one play. I could see them winning a couple more in a row fueled by that alone. That would put them at .500. The next motivator is playing for a winning record. If they hit 5-4 "anything still possible" looks more like it will be possible. At that point the run is on. Have to get these next two wins though. Without that I could see them really unravel.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

I can see it but its really really dim. I think we turned the corner with that goalline stand. We shall see!

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

I dont think Saints fans ever give up. I remember in the old days we would bet on the losing record for fun. We always find the silver lining.

I believe we will win the Super Bowl.

Really don't care about stats ,team strength, QBR, line efficiency or wether we face GB in a -60 blizzard. Thats just conversation to better figure out things. Our boys are going to find a way to win the Super Bowl.


If the Seahawks can make the playoffs, then fate can deal us the same hand. We just have to push harder every time we are knocked back.
Until we are proven "Out off it" I will always believe we will win the Super Bowl. Especially with this offense. It consistently shreds the best defenses in the NFL. Something no other team can say.

That said, I think at most we lose is 3 and go 9-7, probably 10-6 or 11-5.
I mean there is no difference between losing most of your games up front or losing sporadically threw-out the year. We can beat every team below and every team we faced. We didn't but we could have.

NO @ DEN =W I think Denver is some what over rated NE manhandled them, and they are no better than we are as a team, but their offense is not better.
PHI @ NO = W or L We usually beat Philly but they have morphed into something we haven't seen before. Could go either way.
ATL @ NO = W their coach is an idiot and you can't change that ATL will try to go vertical and big play on us.
NO @ OAK = W nothing special, and we are out of trap games.
SF @ NO = W because we have Sprags and he knows SF better than any DC.
NO @ ATL = W same reasons except now they are embarrassed , and try to hard.
NO @ NYG = W we have a history. I think we just have their number, like they have NE's.
TB @ NO = W or L but our defense will be better the second time around.
NO @ DAL = W or L we always struggle vs Dallas for some reason. Maybe its BUSHROD vs ware
CAR @ NO = W The team is pissed because they got beat by such a bad team.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Right now - there is only Denver...

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Plenty of season left, I think they will find a way to at least stay alive for the playoffs until very late in the season.

No just shifting my focus from the SB.
"One game at a time"? Ok ill try it... Saints & Minny in the NFCCG. Don't matter where . Yes it can...yes we can!

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

There were lots of splashes in the water earlier as people were jumping out the rigging, now it's quieted down.

The character of the team this year is like the "I'm not dead yet" guy in Monty Python. They are feeling better. They beat Denver and they will start singing. They will not be out of the playoffs until Goodell looks around to see if anyone else is looking, and then clubs them out of the playoffs with a blow to the head.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Wouldn't that be sweet?

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

I understand getting pressure from this D is not going to happen but that's not even the main issue. Poor tackling, bad angles, and just being flat out of position. If they fix that this can be an average defense and at the end of the day that's all we need.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

I've been wondering if Loomis is planning some type of trade. I'm sure that he has scoured the different teams that have something to offer.

He can do the math at home and implement his plan the day he gets back. I truly believe that we have a 50/50 shot of getting an impact DT when he gets back in charge.(err maybe 60/40 or 70/30)

Unless of course he's busy and tied up with the Hornets.:???:

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

I would be inclined to agree...but I think we would make the playoffs...palyoffs?:whatever:

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Very well palyed!

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

People are dreaming. We do NOT have the defense to make the playoffs! The two games we've won were over lousy teams and we BARELY won. Three of the four teams we've lost to are terrible and the other is only average.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

Still skeptical with this D, but a lot more hope that post KC game. I think we finish 8-8 at worst now. A few weeks ago it looked more like 5-11.


Let's get to 4-4 first, then black Atlanta's eye and I'll be sold on playoffs.

Re: So is the season still over from some...
 

I'll tell you after this game Sunday.
