I think the schedule belies that fact. In our last 10 games we play 6 playoff teams from last year along with Dallas and Baltimore, which more than likely will be playoff teams this year.

It's important that the Saints get off to a good start. We need to take Cleveland, GB, and possibly Atlanta in those first three games to have any hope of a successful season.

Fuel up my friend, fuel up.

This season isn't going to be pretty. I'm sure we have the toughest 4th place schedule in the league this year, playing arguably the three toughest divisons in the game (NFC South, NFC East, AFC North).

The objective is to get better. Play smarter football. Then once we can get a full complement of good players in, then the system along with those players will improve the team.

Just because this is preseason and this is Payton's first year DOES NOT give McKenzie a pass. He still sucks arse.

I'm not whining but on the other hand the preseason IS a decent indicator. If we were blowing teams away and every part of the team was firing on all cylinders how many people here would be saying "it's just preseason" or "it's just glorified practice"?

I think we will do good in those three games-as long as farve doesn't kill us. Vick is overrated and the team will be psyched for that game. CLeveland-well, I'm not sure they will feild anything but a MASH unit this year.

I'm still a little worried about the D and the opposing offence getting down the field seemingly at will.

I know it's going to take time as well, but hey it can't be worse then last year....Right?
