Next 6 games

WhoDat!656 · 10-04-2011, 08:07 AM

@ Panthers

@ Bucs

Colts (Sunday Night Game)

@ Rams

Bucs

@ Atlanta

I could see the Saints at worst splitting with Bucs, but in truthfully I believe the Saints go into the bye week 9-1

The Saints just have to keep focused on one game at a time, and they will come out on the long end of all these scores.

The next two weeks are obviously critical, as they are intra-division matchups. Win both of these on the road, and the team will have the division lead, and be sitting pretty, having won the first two division games away from home.

That will mean: of the rest of the division schedule, 3 of the 4 remaining games will be AT HOME. Of the rest of the regular season schedule, 6 of the remaining 10 games will be at home, including the final two games of the season (Atlanta and Carolina).

In short, winning @Carolina and @Tampa Bay will set the team up nicely for the remainder of the schedule. They will have their fate in their own hands, and will just have to keep winning.

Agree with all. Take this one game at a time and finish our business, especially within the division. The way our schedule plays out we could be sitting pretty and hopefully not with regret letting games slip from us.

Right on. Its a long season and all we can do is worry about the next game. Our defense is also to Jekyle and Hyde for me to predict anything beyond next week.

@ Panthers-should win, but in divisional play all bets are off and its anyones game. Panthers offense would shred the defense that played the Pack or Texans.

@ Bucs-should win, but Tampa finds a way to win. Again divisional play and anything can happen. We beat them twice the year they won the Super Bowl

Colts (Sunday Night Game)- This one is about the safest bet to call a win.

@ Rams-Should be a safe bet, but they have sucked balls the last few years and still have given us major problems.

Bucs- We will be at home so I like our chances, but how healthy are we at this point?

@ Atlanta-Oh to hell with these *******s.

One game at a time. Every one of those teams will come to play.

TheDeuce · 10-04-2011, 12:43 PM

We should win every one of those games... need to be focused and start forcing more turnovers.

My point is that I'll be disappointed if we don't win every one of those games. Think we should, and need to... there are some good football teams in the NFC.

Yes indeed, one game at a time. The Carolina game is going to be a very interesting one. They are a lot better than I thought they would be. Cam Newton should be able to put up a big day, hopefully the Saints can force him into a few bad interceptions to offset.

Overall, this is a pretty brutal 6 game run. Four games against division rivals, and playing a Colts team that isn't as bad as they started out. The Rams game may be the only so called should be easy game, but they may decide to play their best game of the season against the Saints.

The next six games are all winnable. The New Orleans Saints have fortitude, talent and a will to win. Heck, every game is winnable.
