League won't pass any chance to make season tough on Saints

WhoDat!656 · 03-19-2012, 08:17 AM

Looking at our schedule this year, the Saints have 3 road games against outdoor teams, Broncos, Giants & Packers, (I intentionally left out kittens).

To make the season a little tougher for our Saints, I could see the league try and schedule these games for as late in the year as possible.

I hope they are later in the season..... We traditionally lose the ones we are not supposed to lose in the first 8-10.

Dec/Jan in Green Bay can be a tough game to play outdoors ...

We aren't doing anything to get better. Maybe we are so far ahead of the curve it won't matter.

Let them line it up however they want,it will just make it much sweeter when we win.

I'm thinking it's because you have to wait and see what Goodell hands down and then work around that. No sense going all out on any improvements if the league is going to nullify any progress you've made thus far, eh?

Crushing Manning and the forty whiners in the dome would be worth TiVo-ing...

I agree 100%. The league will try to hamper us any way they can short of cutting our achilles tendon. However, lately they have loved to give us prime time games. I don't think that will change. I mean we're already doing an extra game at the Hall of Fame.

Illuminati!

It's the league's way of making sure the Saints don't play the Super Bowl in their own house! We'll show them though!
