Pre-Season Mid Camp 2005 Record Poll
 

OK, now's about as good a time as any to make some useless predictions based on a nearly complete pre-season:

09/11 at Carolina Win Last year carry-over
09/18 N.Y. Giants Win Gi-aints are getting better, but still not that good
09/25 at Minnesota Loss Vikes are better without Moss
10/02 Buffalo Loss Strong team from strongest division
10/09 at Green Bay Win Sliding down
10/16 Atlanta Loss Can't beat what you can't tackle
10/23 at St. Louis Win Too old
10/30 Miami Win Curse of Rickey strikes again
11/06 Chicago Win Bears have terrible luck, 6-3 at the break
BYE
11/20 at New England Loss Couldn't get it done against 2nd team, can't get it done against 1st.
11/27 at N.Y. Jets Loss Good tough loss to a playoff team
12/04 Tampa Bay Win Bucs will be struggling
12/12 at Atlanta Loss Still can't tackle
12/18 Carolina Win Stretch run heroics start here
12/24 Detroit Win Best win against a formidable offense

Playoff NFC Teams
Philadelphia - bye
Atlanta - bye
Minnesota
Arizona
Dallas - WC
Coin toss with New Orleans and Seattle - WC

History is not a predictor of the future, however, the Saints have a history of not playing to their potential against teams they are supposed to beat, and rising to the occasion against teams they are supposed to lose to.

Like my golf game, the only thing consistent is my inconsistency!
