I will go out on a limb and say (RE: Tampa Game)

That the Saints will completely obliterate Tampa.

Something in the tune of 34-6 or 34-10

I think Tampa is too dysfunctional and I believe the only contributors to those 10 points will be a couple nice plays to Jackson and a couple good runs on the ground by Doug Martin. This could be giving them too much credit, this is how I see this game playing out.

I'm with you.

Agree.
Tampa looked terrible against the Jets

It's a division game, you have to throw everything else out the window. I think we hold them to 17 though...

That Same Tampa team has been destroyed in the past, even last seasons 41-0 or whatever it was shutout, prior to that theirs been games where we almost held them scoreless in the Gregg Williams era.

Tampa is one team I think we can bury 6 feet under.

Key words are in bold, every season is different...

true, but has Tampa really improved?

this is one team that has looked pretty much the same if not getting worse over about the past 4 years.

As Mitch stated in another thread, we are around the 500 mark in the Payton era against Tampa. I think we have won one more game than them. I dont get why everyone is so quick to dismiss them and say its going to be a blowout. They tend to play us tough, as all division rivals do.
I think we will beat them, but not as handily as some here might think.

I wonder if Tampa thought the same thing of us when we beat them at theirs last season? I also wonder if they had a touch of confidence coming to the SuperDome before they were smashed off of the park.

Point being, this is a divisional game. I fully expect to win and I think holding Tampa to 17 or less points is achievable but I am not sure I would be thinking about a huge whitewash just yet.
