I personally don't believe that it's going to matter where we play the Hawks. This team, even though lacking in the run game department, (which by the way didn't help us the last time we played the Hawks at their place because they all got hurt.) still remembers that loss and like this past Bears game, we'll be going to Seattle with a chip on our shoulders and will come out with a win.

I'll probably be wrong, but I see us with the inside track for HFA regardless of whether we beat Seattle there or not.

I think they drop one more than us this year, beat us in Seattle, and then we return the favor in the playoffs in the Superdome.

We are a good team. Yep.
But there is a long road yet.
Especially if the talk is of number 1 or 2 seed.

let me say this, we get Seattle or San Fran in the dome in the playoffs, we will be in the SB.

Even with all that, the Saints STILL almost won that game. So I am not guaranteeing a loss to ANY team on the schedule.

We should hopefully get some players back from injury, like Victor Butler and
Lance Moore.

WTF are you referencing, the playoff loss the year after the super bowl? Huh... dude Seatlle is a **** ton better than they were then. Are you even serious?

Can you demonstrate this based off the remaining schedule? I am not saying you're wrong I just want to see your analysis based off the remaining schedule...

1. New Orleans Saints 5-0
2. Seattle Seahawks 4-1
3. Chicago Bears 4-2
4. San Francisco 49ers 3-2

ok i counted the beans in the jelly jar.
in a perfect world seattle needs to finish no better than 10-4 and every one else tanks the season but one game at a time and the real tests are starting today

6 Oct 13 NO @ NE

7 Bye

8 Oct 27 BUF @ NO

9 Nov 03 NO @ NYJ

10 Nov 10 DAL @ NO

11 Nov 17 SF @ NO

12 Nov 21 NO @ ATL

13 Dec 02 NO @ SEA

14 Dec 08 CAR @ NO

ok we are getting into the meat of the schedule and a win into the bye and coming out of NE healthy is major.
