Zero to .oo5 % chance. Sorry to inconsistent both sides of the ball. Special teams play is right off the playground and drew is starting to turn it over more frequently, not in the cards I'm afraid.

Re: Saints Odds of Making the Playoff (Fan Prospective)

Know it sounds like a cliche', but I really try not to think of playoffs until at least the third to last week of season, or if we're eliminated sooner...

I'm more focused on things like...

Is the team improving?

Do we have personnel on the bench that should be playing/starting?

Should we be moving/trading personnel?

Are the players properly prepared for games (coaching)?

Are we game-planning to put our personnel types in best position to succeed?

That said, asked, I'd say the team is turning the corner, but we do need to do something in the front office to replace Loomis and put a stronger check and balance in place to keep Payton from making further blunders in free agency and the Draft...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

So were 5-7 and not trending very strong, our odds are not good.
I like what jeanpierre wrote this team has to look ahead and keep
improving on all aspects of this New Orleans franchise.

Re: Saints Odds of Making the Playoff (Fan Prospective)

The last time the Saints won more than three games in a row, was Sean Payton's first month back on the job in September 2013, over three years ago now. Since then, they've never won more than three games in a row without a loss. And the last time they actually won more than 1 playoff game in a row was seven years ago. Make of that whatever you will.
