Re: Assuming we are eliminated........
 
I must be in the minority that cant watch games that the Saints are not in and not pull for either team.

I can pull for players because they are on my FF Team but never another team. In those games I hope the player does well but the team loses.

Sorry, I am a fan of only one wife and only one team.

Re: Ok assume we hit 7-9 or 8-8
 
Its a home game for Buffalo. Seattle has only won 2 of their 7 Away games this season, and could lose both of their corners to 4 game suspensions.

Cardinals, Rams, and 49ers have already beaten them...

Its not too far of a reach to say Seattle could lose out.

Get out of my head. I was about to post a thread on all of the assumptions...


Here ill make one..


Assuming that all of the Saints fans that went to root for other teams never came back.. We could remove the ladder from the bandwagon for a while.

Assuming Aunt Ruth Grows a Hairy Pair of Testicles
 
-- which, of course, would transform her into Uncle Bert.... This is pretty much
Reality's equal scenario to us making the playoffs.
http://0-media-cdn.foolz.us/ffuuka/b...9408286524.jpg

So, we've been eliminated, as Drew becomes Aaron Brooks, then, we're forced to return our Super Bown trophy, as if we are part of the NCAA. Then we trade Brees for Tim Tebow, and then somehow in an alternate universe, win the Superbowl, all at the same time.

Meanwhile, the cast of Blackandgold.com remains a stable, mature, cohesive bunch, as other Saints sites fall into civil war. Assuming we fall to Eli Manning this Sunday, next sunday, the home game vs. the Buccaneers could be our last chance to celebrate anything marginally semi-meaningful.

Therefore, I propose we have a big shindig on Bourbon St. Next weekend Saturday night Dec 15--- meet and get to know your fellow blackandgold.com posters, and put a face to the name. We're already the coolest Saints site, and we're already a tight bunch. Im staying off Royal, and should be there all weekend. We can deal with details as it approaches. WHO DAT!

Well I'm just looking at the site this morning so didn't see all the assuming "threads" until now. I guess because I am responsible for starting this aweful trend with a question regarding who would be everyone's "SECOND" choice "IF" we didn't sneak into the playoffs (WHICH I NEVER SAID WAS IMPOSSIBLE), let me just apologize to the lot of you guys for even opening that door.
Just started thinking who I would settle for if we ended up getting eliminated from the playoff equation, which I don't think anyone here (no matter how dedicated of a fan you are) would admit isn't a probable (let me clarify again, "BUT I HOPE NOT") scenario.

I find your sarcasm highly illogical.
Everyone knows smoking cigarettes is good for you and extends life.
Everyone knows eating heavy fat foods mass quantities makes you lose weight...
and EVERYONE knows replacing Brees for Tebow would be the best thing for the Empire!

....... And you guys shouldn't write about us being an eliminated team and all that bullstuff--that's malarkey.

We've got a lot of work to do; we're close, and close don't mean ****. And you can put that on TV for me. I'm tired of coming close, and we're gonna work our asses off until we ain't close anymore, and it may take some time; we're gonna get it done; we aren't an eliminated team yet.

Could've, would've, should've" is the difference in what I'm talking about! Eliminated teams don't come in and say "Could've." They get it done! All right? It's that simple! I'm tired of saying "Could've, should've, would've."

I'm pissed off right now. You bet your ass I am. I'm sick of coulda, woulda, shoulda, coming close, if only."

Assuming that the NFL imposes new rules that make teams actually assume the identity of their nickname-ie Chicago Bears fielding a team of actual grizzly bears-should the Saints consider changing their name to the Laser Guided Nuclear Salvo?

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
