Assuming Drew Brees turns into Aaron Brooks...
 
What the hell is up with all these negative "Assuming" threads?

I've never seen this board so full of Negative Nancies in my entire life.

Seems like people are assuming every other possible scenario that can possibly be assumed right now. So I just thought I'd chime in with one more.

Excuse me, but what the hell are you talking about? I like you, Bro, but this is just plain dumb. I'd like to expound, but this is just too dumb to expound upon. Seriously, Bro, I mean absolutely nothing personal about this, but ... damn.

"I just don't see that many "what ifs" going in our favor."

Did you see the Saints be forced to play a season without their head coach?

AsylumGuido 12-04-2012 06:27 PM

Re: Assuming Drew Brees turns into Aaron Brooks...
 
No ****, Danno. Our team was sent through the worst hell in the off-season one could imagine and we still have a mathematical chance to make the playoffs. We didn't have our head coach whom I believe is the best in the league. We were decimated at right tackle which gave Brees no protection over the past few games.

Y'all can assume your asses off, but I have every confidence in our future. Damn, you sound like a bunch of whiny ass Cowboys fans. And they actually have a reason to whine!

Re: Ok assume we hit 7-9 or 8-8
 
Didn't read a post after the opening one.

The Saints are winning out. To hell with draft picks.


9-7

My guess is a meddlesome owner who's arrogance prevents them from hiring a competent GM and coach who would likely field a dominating team with the money Jerry's willing to spend.

Jerry is the best thing to ever happen for Cowboy haters.

They are stuck with a bad QB, a bad head coach and a horrible owner. Their games are being played in a stadium with no home field advantage and above all ... they are Cowboys fans. They just plain ass suck.

9-7
 
C'mon Saints - let's just finish 9-7.

Assuming we don't make the postseason - which we probably will not - ending the season on a 4-0 run would be some nice momentum going into next season.

Plus, the D is starting to get better (yes "better" is compared to the worst D in history) and maybe the scheme will work with more time and more talent (next year).


And who knows - maybe the cards will fall in the right order for us.

This is our best chance to make it, IMO:

2012 NFL Playoff Machine - Simulate Matchups and Scenarios - ESPN


If you want your brain to hurt, consider that we only need to win out and have the following happen:


1) Rams - Lose any 1 game - @ BUF, MIN, @TB, @SEA

2) Vikings - Lose any 1 game - CHI, @STL, @HOU, GB

3) Bucs - Lose to Saints ONLY - PHI, @NO, STL, ATL

4) Cowboys - Lose to Saints and NY Giants win NFC East or Lose to Saints + one other game - @ CIN, PIT, @NO, @WAS

5) Redskins - ANY TWO losses - BAL, @CLE, @PHI, DAL

6A) Seahawks - 3 losses or 2 NFC losses - ARI, @BUF, SF, STL

OR

6B) Bears - Lose 3 games - @MIN, GB, @ARI, @DET

I may be wrong but I kinda think that's his point. He's using sarcasm to make fun of all the "Assuming" threads on the board today.

I think they disband the team then, and to make an example .......
Crucify the players along canal Street, like the romans did.. and have Brees carry his own cross to the top of the SuperDome where he will be nailed to it during a freak thunderstorm..for all the NFL fans to see...

........it could happen. Don't look at me like that.

Give them a six-pack and a roll of pringles too and we might get the deal done.

Was having a crazy day, sorry.But people WERE assuming lots of things in wild extremes ("we're done" "we're going to the Super Bowl") and there is a LOT of football left to be played...a little parody now and then to keep things in perspective...

I don't know...that seems a bit over kill. I think the pringles alone would sway Rex...assuming it's Foot-flavored.

You are looking at it wrong buddy. Things don't go right for every team every season... In a lot of games....

Our scenario involves things not going right for other teams and by that nature are good for us.

The Saints winning out is the only thing we can control, and the only thing that has to go our way. Those teams losing is not based on our good luck, but on their bad luck, and bad luck happens for teams every week.

I would say there is a better chance of those teams losing than us willing out if your leaving it to luck.

Re: Ok assume we hit 7-9 or 8-8
 
Seattle would have to lose 2 to NFC foes in order to pass them. Losing to Buffalo would be nice, but doesn't really help.

Just noting this.
