You had me until you said the bears offense are not slouch ... Bro, they are terrible!!! (They got lucky as hell against atlanta) Agreed with the rest though --- In the end, this stuff is interesting to read (which is why we are all on this thread), but ultimately it doesn't mean jack. We're a good team that can turn great if our D plays more consistently.

He has valid points. BUT I think the fact that we were still "in" both games shows that the "D" has something going.

BUT - If we lose Drew - we are ****ed!!

Well again with these ratings they mean nothing... We have played 3 really good teams... Won 2 outta three of those games, and should have won the other.. Our main concern and it seems I say this every year is the dam INJURY BUG, seems to bite us every year, If we can hold on win some of these easier games coming up we should be in good shape... Remember we play the good teams well. But when it comes to those games we should win we have a letdown, we can't afford that right now... We need to win these next 2 games for sure... Jacksonville well who knows what they are gonna put on the field, and of course the Panthers which have some confidence in their team right now... But both of these teams are very beatable by us...

GEAUX SAINTS!!!!
