Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

You can Vote for more than one.

What do you think is the hardest game left on the schedule?

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Hard to say. Jets, Giants, Falcons, Pats will probably all be tough games.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Too hard to say just one.

Giants/Jets/Pats look the toughest right now, with Atlanta close behind.

As of now, the Saints should be favored in all but 3 or 4 games.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

The easiest game left on the schedule will probably end up being the hardest.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

I went with the G-men and the December away game at RFK.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Washington was mines also.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Nobody picked the Carolina game yet?
They always beat us once.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Washington? Are you serious? Their coach is on the hot seat and they just gave the Lions a bail-out.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

It's not the redskins, it's the hostile environment and the cold. We suck in outdoor games on the road, especially when it's cold.

EDIT: The last time we won a game, on the road, outdoors, in december was against the Giants. Bush and Deuce absolutely destroyed them on the ground. So really, Brees sucks outside on the road in the cold. I have no idea how he was so good in the Big 10.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

The next game. It's always the hardest.

Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. The Saints were only a single poor play away from the game going sideways.

Stay Humble...

Keep your nose to the grindstone...

Don't count your chickens before they hatch...

That's why they play the games...

Any of this seem appropriate?!?

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Before the season I had said we would go 12-4 with a loss to:

New England
Atlanta
Carolina
Philly or NY Giants


We made it past Philly, and now I would put the Jets in the place of Carolina as a possible loss.

I'm not as scared of NE or NYG after seeing them play some this season, so I voted for the Jets.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

You can leave all those adages to the players. They're the ones getting paid not to overreact. We fans, however, pay for the right to overreact.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Well said. Its annoying when posters tell other posters to reign the enthusiasm in, like a fan being overly-optimistic is somehow going to affect the overall play of the team. LOL!

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

I think the Giants will be our toughest game, on paper at least. I figure we'll split with the falcons and the Jets are gonna be tough too. This is the NFL and the 2 or 3 patsies out there this year are not on our schedule, but then again neither is who I consider to be the best team in the league this year which is the Ravens. Every game is going to be tough, but I think we'll win 12 the way we are going.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

next week is a good test but after the bye week we get really serious. sweep the division and we are set!

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Pencil in all the division games as the hardest. Besides that, I will have to say the Giants game. For some reason, I do not believe the Saints defense will be able to handle Brandon Jacobs.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Wow.. that's some great logic there, buddy. Keep it up.

One, FedEx field is downright friendly compared to most stadiums around the league,especially when the Skins blow chucks like they are blowing chunks this year.
Two, it isn't THAT cold in December in Washington. The real cold usually doesn't get there until mid Jan.
Three, how do you figure that "really, Brees sucks outside on the road in the cold"? Maybe if the defense had not allowed other teams to score 30+ or not allowing teams to score on the last drive, call me crazy, but just maybe, the Saints would've won those games.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

The Giants will be a hard game on offense and defense.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

I agree with SFIAH--the "next game" is always the toughest. That said, of the remaining opponents, I think the Giants have the best matchup against the Saints. Their D-line will harass Brees all day, and he won't play well (he never does under constant pressure). The defense will have to step up big like they did against Buffalo, but the Giants are much better at QB and O-line than the Bills. The running game will also need to be solid, but again the Giants' D is better than Buffalo's.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Sunshine...
On my shoulder...
Makes me happy...

lol

I went with New England. At least we get the Jets and Giants at home right?

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

So is New England and on Monday night as well.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

What kind of BS is this?

They are all hard. You can't take any lightly... just as soon as we fall asleep someone will bite us on the butt and we lose the next 8-9 in a row!

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Jets...The next game is always the hardest. That's always the one that's most important also. Jets are playing pretty good. We are playing pretty good also. Are we going to stumble or make it over this hump? We are 3-0 and back at home...then a bye...then the Giants. 4-0 going into the bye week would be great.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

So us fans looking down the road affects how the team plays?

I had no idea I had that much power.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

I voted for the Jets because they are our next opponent.

Next the week the Bye will be our toughest opponent.

And then the Giants.

This is the NFL. (no duh, mike!) If we were playing the Lions again
next week it would be our toughest game. And while I have a feeling
this is gonna be the happiest Mardi Gras in the history of New Orleans,
I am worried about the Jets. They're my only concern.

So get on the program Danno, and stop looking ahead, before you mess us
up totally. You have that much power. You know what else? Only you Can Prevent Forest Fires. The world is depending on you, so stop screwing off and save us.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

lol

i picked the patriots and giants......pats are consistantly one of the best teams in the league and one of the few offenses that could keep up with us

the giants defense is ridiculous....their 2 DEs are there to hurt quarterbacks and drew is now without his pro bowl left tackle for the rest of the season....im not looking forward to that game at all

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

when did you come back? i thought you were a gonner.....i had moved on

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

! well gee thanks canton! I guess you've already replaced me, then.... ha! according to the post counter, I'm brand new. Oh well.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Beauty and the Beast returns.... We lost the pic of Canton in his Speedo.

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

there was never a picture of canton in a speedo

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Really, you let some other guy wear your pink Speedo?

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

pink speedo? i dont know what you're talking about

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

I can feel the love in the air
lol

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

I distinctly remember a banana hammock picture on this website.

would like to forget it, but i remember it.

You know what else we lost here?

The B&G classic condom story. What a shame. I'll have to re-post it, and then we can make it a sticky! BRUHAHAHAHA! get it? sticky! HU HAHAHAHA!

I'm killing me today. . . .

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

Mr. Sticky... I mean SkyMike....

your wish is my command

you asked with your eyes skymike, you asked with your eyes

Re: Hardest Game Left on Schedule
 

I had a hard time deciding between New England and NYG - so I picked both. The redskins are ridiculous, they can't move the ball on offense and can't stop anyone on defense. That team is just awful. I think we will demolish the NYJ and we will hear that we still haven't played anyone, and that Sanchez is another rookie QB.
