A Panther loss tonight versus New England and we'd have to pretty much collapse to lose the NFCSouth.

Re: How I think rest of Season will play out.

I think we will split with Carolina and lose to Seattle. We're looking at a 12-4 season.

Re: How I think rest of Season will play out.

Can I change my answer? I think we will sweep Carolina. They didn't look that hot against Brady and the Pats, and even though they pulled off the win, they don't stand a chance against us.

Re: How I think rest of Season will play out.

I still believe we could possibly go 13-3 or 14-2. Maybe I'm dreaming. Drew Brees has, to my knowledge, never lost on Monday Night Football. The Atlanta game is winnable because they are reeling and it's Drew Brees in prime time. The Seahawks game is winnable because it's on a Monday night. We get Carolina at home before we have to play them on the road. We should beat Tampa Bay with ease in the dome. The one that worries me the most is the Carolina game on the road. The Rams game worries me slightly, but only because that entire team is schizophrenic and you never know which team you are going to face. Going 5-1 the rest of the season is within the realm of possibility, but most likely we will end up 12-4 which will be good enough for the #2 seed.

I think after this win, if we can beat Atlanta on short rest(is this really even a q?) we should go 12-4. Yeah rams defense is suddenly back against the pass thats one to worry about but they have no SJax either and our secondary isnt our problems. That though is gonna be the tricky game. If we beat Seattle we should still go 12-4 I believe we will lose one of those road games. Thats good enough for 1 seed.

Okay actually I'm wrong we can still beat Seattle and lose the 1 seed to them as Seattle looks to be no worse than 13-3. So we have to beat the rams and seahawks both on the road to have the 1 seed.

This is possible, I was just thinking about this too recently. Seattle did win in Carolina and it was a low scoring game. Carolina definitely has the knowledge of that defense. However, I don't know if Carolina can win in Detroit. Philadelphia, they can. I think Detroit or Philadelphia will represent the 3 seed and Dallas still is the favorite to win the east but they can only get 4 to me.

Actually he has, but not since 08. Before that, he has lost to the steelers(as a charger), titans, and vikings.

You guys are hyping up carolina like they played. NE yet.. if they beat them then I'd worry. I think its possible we win out. Seattle hasn't really played anyone like us and seeing how we stopped gore I'm hype. Wishing that Greer wasn't hurt but next man up!

They did & they won. Worried now?

Re: How I think rest of Season will play out.

First off I would like to say greetings one and all. I have to say I admire Drew Brees work ethic and his overall toughness. The Saints have a fantastic head coach and your team looks like it will challenge for the NFC title this year. I must say that your knowledge of the Hawks is a little off. I would rather talk x's and o's but I guess I will throw in my opinion. While I certainly wouldn't begrudge anybody the notion that The Saints can beat the Seahawks I will throw in a few tidbits.

1) This is the best Seahawks team I have ever seen including the 2005 Superbowl team in which we were screwed. That team had a better o line but that is it.
2) The Niner team you beat was one controversial play away from beating you on your home field. Their offense put up a staggering 6 points of drives not aided by turnovers and still came oh so close to a win. The same Niners team we beat 29-3 and 42-13 our last two games.
3) You guys are very borderline with injuries to your db's and we are as healthy as can be with a motivated and supremely talented Percy Harvin added to our offense. We won our games this year while missing 3/5 of our offensive line.
4)You couldn't beat us in Seattle with our worst team since Pete Carroll arrived here, what makes you think you can beat us with our best team? I think you guys are in for a rude awakening.

Here is to a great game in two weeks and if you guys win I will be back to face the music :)

Re: How I think rest of Season will play out.

I like having the panthers on our heals and Seattle a win ahead

It will keep us from a lull and sitting our players at the end of the season

Great incentive for hosting playoffs in the dome
