Remaining Schedule
this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; If we cede home field to Seattle - no Lombardi Gras... And Carolina is only one game back and that's a good thing as they need someone to push 'em......

Re: Remaining Schedule
I do not see us dropping both 49ers and Cowboys at home. So if we drop the 49ers at home and sea-hawks on the road then possibly Panthers in NC, then we are 11-5. I still say we go 12-4.
The Panthers are playing well but have not beat any teams .. actually Panthers have beat Giants 2-6, Vikings 1-7, Rams 3-6, Bucs 0-8, Falcons 2-6 (Falcons are the only team not in last place in their division that the panthers have beaten.. I see them dropping 1 to the Saints at least, 1 to 49ers, and 1 to the Falcons in Atl, minimum... I see it the same way i did with the #3 Sack DE of the Bills Mario Williams... His whole schedule was against the most sacked QBs in the league... He got 1 against us. |

6-2 is good but it hasn't been pretty. But I think we'll go 11-5 and win the division. |

None of those teams suck. Well Tampa and Atlanta do now but didn't when we played them. Carolina beat a sorry Giants team, a sorry St Louis and Minnesota team, lost to Buffalo and Arizona (who we beat) and beat a severely weakened Atlanta and Tampa. Our 6-2 is a hell of a lot more impressive than their 5-3. |

Some of those games didn't really matter because we were already locks, but they were beating us even before we started pulling starters. Their D is better than any D we have played this year and our offense simply cannot play against old school, smash mouth, fundamentally sound defenses.
All that said I still think we take the division. Whatever happens after that depends on the offensive line. Hell NY did it twice and came in as wild cards so anything can happen. |
