Thoughts On Atlanta

I have very little confidence in this team. Even against bad teams. Sorry, I’ve still not seen anything to make me feel good about our chances against anyone.

I even dread winning at this point, because the system will remain in place, that allows a barely mediocre and badly coached team to win a dismal division, and get embarrassed in the playoffs. THIS is not the Saints we want to watch.

Strange times - WHODAT!

The general tone is less than optimistic.

Hey Guido! Give us some 'Glass Half Full' pep talk! I need a boost!

I don’t dread winning. I want to see the team perform well and improve. It would make me happy for the light to come on for the coaching as well and the play calls to improve. I’d be fine with the coaches we have if all of this would happen and the team started being a legitimate contender.

I just don’t see it happening.

I always hope for the best. But I have almost zero confidence that the best is what we will see.

I don’t bet. Especially against my team. But if I did, I’d bet against them right now.

WHODAT! I guess…

Tight game. Former coaches and executives with intimate knowledge.

Sounds simplistic but I think it's ball control, stop the run and turnover battle.

Win by a FG.

This game won’t be close. Even in a rivalry match up.

Falcons have a HC that is possibly worse than ours, no offensive identity & a second tier QB.

Saints by 13 (if not more).

And THAT IS how we open the show.
