I'm afraid we're in trouble.

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I think our Defense is going to surprise a lot of people. I will make my final determination after seeing them all play Sunday. Noone can know how good or bad this group will be, but we will all see ...

Re: I'm afraid we're in trouble.

I think we are going to lose at least 5 games assuming we win all the games we need to win and should. But 5 games we will not win............

1 against Carolina
1 against Tampa Bay
At Chicago or New England
At Seattle or St.Louis
San Francisco or at Atlanta
..............We could win both those games I mentioned last but we would not win both playing all 8 quarters. Not enough rest.

It comes down to these three games that have me nervous
Atlanta
@New York J
Dallas

I don't think we beat TB week 2. The last game will depend if we can still get in or not. So these are the games that imo decide our season. Anywhere from 7-9 to 11-5.

With all due respect, if you are worried about the Jets then you have very little faith in this team.

Your not even iffy or concerned... "5 games we will NOT win"

How exactly are the Jets going to keep up with the scoreboard?

I am not even sure we will lose the Chicago and NE games given their state.

I think we will lose one at Atl and at Car. I think we will drop possibly one more, could be the San Fran game, but the good news about the San Fran game is, we could turn around and beat San Fran in the playoffs.

Whoa! 5 yards separated us from being 0-1 so I'm not ordering my Super Bowl tickets yet. Defense looked ok but we can NOT be a field goal kicking team. We have got to tighten that up. The good news is that we're starting out 1-0 and everyone else in the NFC South started out 0-1.

True. We haven't done anything more than win a game. Still, it was against Atlanta, and they do have some weapons. It may only be one win, but it was an encouraging one for sure!

Go back and read your OP. Crawfish all you like.



A goal line stand against a lethal offense where our rookie draft pick; that most didn't want, broke up a pass to a Hall of Fame TE is hardly frame-able as a ho-hum 5 yard separation between W/L

Re: I'm afraid we're in trouble.

Reasons to be optimistic........Sean Payton and Drew Brees.
Reasons to be pessimistic.......Patrick Robinson and Malcolm Jenkins.
Everything else is a wash.
