amen blacksaint, AMEN!

another AMEN to mjf150!

All you can do is play the schedule that is dealt to you. Should we try to swap with another team so we can have better competition. And as far as playing Jax when they are a little banged up I'm all for it. We will play all the rest of our games without our best player "deuce".

See here's the problem. So you are happy being mediocre? I mean ok so we can't compete with the likes of the Steelers, Pats, Colts. We settle for that? We are ok with losing to some teams but not others? I mean I am happy to make the play offs as the next guy but to go out there and get embarrassed really... what are we accomplishing.

SapperSaint · 10-29-2007, 01:21 PM

I will agree as I am sure everyone else will, The first three games this team had their heads in the clouds or their heads up their butts.

I just don't see how any of it really matters. Good team, bad team.... we will know what kinda team we have after this week. JAX is good even if Gray starts. This is a "good" team we are about to play.

Let me put this in perspective. If you are a good team you need to beat the teams you should beat. The teams we lost to are far better than we are call it what you want but The Saints can not complete with the likes of the Colts.

Oh I agree we are no where even close to the Colts right now. And we won't even dream about compairing our team to the PATS. And yes, I see your point and agree with you about getting to the playoffs just to get the hell beat out of us...that would be pointless. As fans I think just making the playoffs again is a milestone, considering the teams history. I know we expected more out of the team this year, but as football fans and not Saints fans we know that this team, right now, just needs to win it's next game and worry about playoff talk when the time comes.

We have to face reality, the Colts or the PATS are going to win the SB this year, and I am leaning more towards the PATS. Both have a truely great team. We, on the other hand, don't really know if we have a good or bad team right now. This week should gives us some insight into that question and give us the answer we all want to know.

Is this team "Good".

I kinda see where everyone is coming from, with NE and Indy being crazy good right now, and how they are guna win the SB....so should every team in the NFC jus quit cuz they have no chance??? F That.....the superbowl is ONE game. Its not a series like NBA or MLB. Once playoffs start, regular season records mean nothing. Any team can beat any team any given day. Honestly, the Colts can be beat, but a handful of teams right now. Are we there yet? no, is it possible to improve enough this season, get to the superbowl and play them and win? yes it is. Until we are mathematically out of the playoffs, we can win the superbowl. Thats it. No one can say we have no chance of winning, becuz there is a chance we can. Dont crown Indy or NE just yet....theres still alot of season....

I hear what you are saying but you have to look at it as only a mere 'prediction' base on how they are playing. They are leaps and bounds over any NFC team. That is something we need to learn and strive towards. Are we in that league, honestly ask yourself that question. The answer, unless you living in World of Warcraft or some other realm un known to mankind is -NO-.

All this talk about the Colts or Pats winning the Superbowl already is a bunch of crap.
Both teams are great but every team is beatable on any given Sunday. If the Pats keep going all out on teams once the outcome has been decided like they are doing right now some defensive player will take a cheap shot on Brady and take him out for the rest of the year and then the Pats are in trouble. There once was a mighty Colt team way back when that thought they were unbeatable and a young cocky QB from Alabama named Joe took care of that thought. So the bottom line is if you play with the confidence of a winner anything is possible and any team is beatable.

SapperSaint · 10-29-2007, 03:11 PM

All of the players in the NFL are the best players in the world. Any team IS beatable, but nonsense is nonsense. I must be the only crazy person here that thinks that the Saints GOING to the SB muchless WINNING the SB, is a 1-42 chance long shot. You guys are talking about playoffs and SuperBowl like we are 6-1 right now. I'm in no way dogging our team, I'm simply making the point that we are not ready to play teams on the same level as Indy or NE. If you think we can your blinding yourself as a Saint fan.

If we beat JAX like we did SF, I'll change my thought process. But don't sit there and pretty much call me stupid for pre-crowning NE. You can't compare Broadway Joe's victory over Baltimore to NE of 2007. Just because it happens in college football, how many times has it happen in the NFL in the past two decades?
