1 OT injury door continues so OG are forced to support OT asking OC to do to much. Saints forced into max protection on passing downs way too much. RB pay the price with an average season. Rookie starting LOT and a washed up former first rounder at ROT surprises everyone by season end.

2 WR and TE once again carry the team and some depth questions in the past start to get answered, future looks goods for the first time in years

3 Defense perform so so. DL looks to have hope, OLB exposed for not enough well rounded players. ILB play is ok but new young talent is needed. Secondary shows the most improvement and solid depth. saints end up rank 20th on defense. Ryan gets a C+ for coaching. buys him another year and another offseason were defense rules

4 Special teams become among the leagues best. The overall depth upgrade really shows here. Fans fall in love with the coffin corner kick once again after years without it. Saints kicking game get back on track. new kicker or not the nightmare ends in 2013. shanks cut back 90%

5 Sean Payton proves he is worth every penny he is paid and still have the saints in the playoff hunt in the end and a shot at winning the division

I'm cautiously optimistic about the defense this season. I expect improvement, but not top 10 improvement. I just don't know how our guys will pick it up.

A defense in the #18-23 range and we are serious contenders in the postseason

Bingo.

1. Saints will go 13-3 and win the SB.
2. Martez Wilson will have 10 sacks. So will Junior Galette.
3. Pat Robinson will be starting at CB by mid-season.
4. That 9/30 home game against the Dolphins will make 62-7 look like they were taking it easy on them.
5. Ingram will run for 800 yards.

1 Saints will not have five straight three and outs.

2 People will grumble about our horrible O tackles just like they have for the last 8 years but we'll still be near the top of the league for fewest sacks allowed.

3 PT will still be our best back but Ingram will still get more carries.

4 Going into next years draft we'll still be looking for a standout pass rusher.

5 A rookie running back will come out of the woodwork to challenge for playing time.

1. Halo will pay for all our opinions.
2. The NFL will bar pink kits, except for Atlanta, where red goes to die.
3. Refs will call every incidence of holding. This will add 1 hour to each game and reduce scoring by half.
4. Boild crawfish will be shown to reduce effects of head trauma.
5. There will be an additional parade during Mardi Gras 2014.

There is way too much homer going on in here.

1. Rob Ryan is mostly talk. I will believe it when I see it

2. Ingram is a bust.

3. JG may be the closest thing to accuracy by the OP but I get the feeling he has become a lttle gun shy

4. Rufus will not see that much playing time this season unless our LB corp is all injured

5. Kenny Stills will see less playing time than Rufus


Geez.
