I can't help but be reminded of what happened in '02

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; This VERY MUCH needs to be kept in the back of people's minds. In fact, that Saints team started out 6-1. Had me thinking they might be headed for a Super Bowl. Hell, they even swept Tampa Bay (the team ...

This VERY MUCH needs to be kept in the back of people's minds. In fact, that Saints team started out 6-1. Had me thinking they might be headed for a Super Bowl. Hell, they even swept Tampa Bay (the team that went on to win it all) that year!

Let it just be a reminder of what CAN happen, and not necessarily what WILL happen.

I dont think he is going to sell...He realizes now that this team could make him as much money as those car dealerships one day in the NFL keeps groing like it does...If it already doesn't..he wants to keep it in the family maybe not in La but he does want to keep it...I am most of the time overly optimistic about the Saints...I predicted a Kool-Aid Swilling 12-4...However, I dont think these coaches are going to let this team get complacent like Haz and only rally them when he needs them to save his job...

Problem is I think the road to Miami no matter where your coming from is going to be in Chicago...When we get closer to the end of the season we will know if there is a chance of avoiding a game at Soldier Field...Obviously Chicago would have to lose some games and just looking at their schedule the only opponents I see as potential Bear Hunters are the Giants, the Rams, and the Pats; one could make an argument that the Bucs have potential to do the feat, but they have only beat the Bungles and lets face how surprised were you based on the way the played us last week and given the situation in Cincy...However, with the way this coaching staff has performed I wont put it out of reach to get a victory in Chi-Town

I got into a big arguement with someone over this very thing. Sheldogg...all I can say is that this time....it all just feels different. We can't go around dreading and pondering the what if's. I know we are Saints fans and I know the negative abuse that we have enured but you gotta trust me and everyone here when we say....BELIEVE buddy....BELIEVE!!!! This is not over yet....not by a looong shot. I used to cheer the Saints when they would pull of a victiry by some miracle. Even when we went down to Philly, this time, I was so fired up....so were the fans (trust me..I heard it)..and you could see it in the players. Its all very different now.

BINGO!!

That popped into my mind too. No worreis though. This is a completely different team.

We don't have Smiley or Iron Hands Stallworth around to destroy the offense anymore.

We could lose some games because we have a very tough schedule ahead, bu we're going to the playoffs as division winners.

Carolina's going to win this division, baring injury.

Why did we take such a giant crap on Delhomme anyhow?
