We can't get ahead of ourselves just yet

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I originally saw SF or Atl, Sea, @Car as our biggest tests. But now there's more.......the jets could be a trap game. No wait it is a trap game. With the way Geno played yesterday and how the jets beat ...

We can't get ahead of ourselves just yet

I originally saw SF or Atl, Sea, @Car as our biggest tests. But now there's more.......the jets could be a trap game. No wait it is a trap game. With the way Geno played yesterday and how the jets beat the pats the saints defense will need to play lights out this game. If we lose to the jets then we are forced to have to beat both the 49ers and falcons in a short time. Then we lose to Seattle and just like that we are 3 losses or 4. And likely we will split with Carolina and the home game against TB worries me and last time they played like crap we saw what happened week 16. So I don't want to say we can still go 10-6 but it can happen.

Losses I see
SF or Atl
@Sea
@Car

The trap games
@NYJ
TB

If we go 11-5 or 10-6 we may not even be the 2 seed. GB is likely only gonna lose three more games or less. Dallas is the one I see, but lions and bears should win but haven't proven that they could yet. Everything else is winnable. In a tiebreaker at 11-5 though we would beat them if we lose to jets. At 10-6, we will need Carolina to lose one of the Atlanta games or to the dolphins or jets. Or, we could end up a wild card. I can see Carolina going 5-1 in division. What is Atlanta gonna have to play for the last game at home? I doubt though the saints go 10-6, they are more than capable of beating the bucs if they are forced to at home last game. Its the jets game I am more worried about and the packers ending up 12-4 or 13-3.

Other than worrying in advance over 5 or 6 possible losses you're enjoying the season so far?

Re: We can't get ahead of ourselves just yet

Why worry about things you can not change?

I just sit back and enjoy the season... It's not my job to worry and prepare for the games, I'll leave that up to the team

Re: We can't get ahead of ourselves just yet

I am enjoying this 5-1 start myself. It does no good to worry about what I cannot control. I am just here for the ride. If you fret to much about the road ahead you are most likely going to miss the scenery along the way.

We have 10 games left. I guarantee that those 10 teams are a hell of a lot more worried about playing us than we are about playing them.

Re: We can't get ahead of ourselves just yet

Good analysis; a bit on the pessimistic side, but you have the right. But like someone said here already, they're dreading to play us...in the Dome or otherwise.
