WHO DAT Faithful, help a brother out?

I feel your pain. I want to watch, but, hate going to bed pissed off. So, I'm torn.

Has anyone noticed that we seem to be playing up and down to the level of the competition. Against the Packers and Steelers (who were both hot when we faced them) we looked like the Saints. Against the balance of our schedule we have played like the Aints, losing most of the games and squeezing in an occasional win when there should have been a blow-out.

Based upon this, tonight could very well be fugly.

All the responses, and no one has really answered Leilung's question.

I'm on the same boat...

How so? He asked for motivation, he was given ...

Playoff aspirations
Keeping Atlanta from going
Keeping Carolina from going
Hatred for the Bears
New roster changes

What were you looking for?

I'll be watching, not excitedly but watching and I'll be here in the live chat until either we win or it goes south. If it goes bad, I turn it off and go to Second Life, if it goes well, I'm here cheering.

Seriously?

We're battling for 1st place in the NFCS, in a wide open conference, with no consistently dominant team in either conference, on Monday Freaking Night football, with playoffs just 4 weeks away, with the opportunity for New Orleans to host a playoff game, and the opportunity to deny Atlanta and Carolina a playoff spot.

And someone actually needs "motivation" to watch?

May the football gods have mercy on your pathetic loser of a soul. You are dead to me.

I am motivated as we can still win the Div and get in the playoffs. I have been on/off the fence between this and a better draft but when you have a chance you have to go with winning. I was silly to think otherwise. However, this team has me gun shy to the point that I can't even guess at what team shows up tonight.
