FIVE GAMES!!!!! Will tell the story of the 2011 Saints

I will be living in Indy by the time we play them. The real litmus test is to see if I make it out of whatever sports bar I go to. Indy has something to prove not us.

I think it will be interesting to see how the Packers respond after their SB win. Whereas most teams have the off season to get fat off their accomplishment of winning it all, this year focused more on the lockout than the Packs as the champs. I'm betting they are not as out of shape as your usual SB champs.

Of course, the lockout may change this completely.

Closest margin of victory, oh, 'bout 42 points. I'm with you. No more of this cardiac stuff. Let's bust some friggin skulls.

I'm interested in seeing what Brees and the 1st team offense does in pre-season. So far under Payton it's been a perfect indicator of how we do during the season.

Do we play up or down to our competition this year? We're a veteran team......I think we will practice and play to win every game.
Hopefully, we're bringing our "A" game this year.

I agree. This is a year were a fast start will mean everything

If we start the season with wins against GB, TB, Atl, Indy, and Giants, then I assure you a playoff spot. It would take a major melt-down to miss with a start like that.

Phoenix Game last year --->

Max Hall didn't WIN it... Drew gave it away... Four INT's, if I remember correctly.

Sorry for that reminder. I was THERE. I think I gotta stop going to games.

Someone please slap me with some good JUJU!

I'm sticking to non-conference games until my rep clears up. LOL
