When Dennis and Pete can defeat a good team, I”ll believe it.

In the past two seasons, they’ve only beaten a 9-8 Seahag team and
Hurts/Eagles.

Niners are levels above the Saints. They play like those old 80s/90s teams now with no weaknesses. Dallas is a solid squad that got destroyed.

Saints just pimped slapped a terrible Pats squad & now some think we can hang with the Chiefs, Niners or Philly?

Slow down brother

Now this here is some pretty pessimistic "cautious optimism".

You aren't getting my point. I think we can defeat them, I never said we were better than them. We are on the rise and in the playoffs it comes down to one game at a time. By the time we get to the playoffs, we could be much better. Right now it'd take one hell of a performance to beat either team, which is exactly why the prospect of playing both of them terrifies me. Right now we may be able to pull a game out of our ass. I'm banking on us getting better though and evening the odds some more.

Brother, this team needs to worry about the next opponent ... the Texans.

Then focus on the division (we are 3rd atm) ... you know, the teams like Atlanta or Bucs. Some have already forgotten we were flat out embarassed by Baker Mayfield

in the dome 2 weekends ago.

Maybe you missed my point ... ONE GAME AT A TIME.

We aren't good enough to take coach Don Shows (West Monroe High school legend) approach by circling teams off before the match up.

But carry on ...
