Cooks catches at least 60 passes - True
PT23 under 100 carries - False
Brees less than 5,000 yards passing - True
Jimmy breaks Gronk's record - False
Saints will lose a game because of kicker - False and stupid - It's a team game.
Saints will have 10+ Pro Bowl players - False

1 False, we spread the ball around too much. Injury could change that though. He is definitely capable

2. True. Ingram and Rob will get the bulk of the carries. Pierre will catch screens for the most part. They have always used him sparingly Again injury could change this.

3 True. Payton says he wants to run more and I think we have the line and backs to actually do it.

4. False. Cooks will take some of the receptions away from Graham as the ball is spread between the two (and others) Plus Jimmy will get hurt at some point and disappear/miss games

5 true. Happens to most teams in the NFL and our track record isn't the best. Although papz is absolutely right about it being a team game, I just assumed he meant a kicker would miss a FG that if made we would have won.

6 yea right. I wish.

Saints win Superbowl... TRUE

Cooks catches at least 60 passes - True
he will be forced fed the ball

PT23 under 100 carries - False
I have little faith in a new first and second down run game still. till some one can step up and become a threat in the passing game defending the run will remain easy against the saints

Brees less than 5,000 yards passing - False
See answer to two

Jimmy breaks Gronk's record - False
If he does Colston got injured and our other WR remain inconsistent

Saints will lose a game because of kicker - True
As much as i agree with a team game i have to believe in a hard fought battle were 3s are key we are odds on favorite to come up short. I fear this might be our Achilles heel when playoff time rolls around

Saints will have 10+ Pro Bowl players - False
I do not see it yet

Saintfan finally catches on a gets his long-wanted gig as waterboy: False

Cooks doesn't need to catch 60 balls for us to be successful. If he draws coverage away from Stills, Colston and Graham, which he will, we are golden.
Which lead to 2 & 3. Who cares. As long as we have #9, why are are we dwelling on paying him to hand off?
Graham, no.
Kicker...probably...away games in tough stadiums certainly up the odds
Pro Bowl? False The AFC & NFC champions do not send players to that game. But, Graham, Brees, Grubbs, Evans, Strief, Byrd, Lofton, Jordan, Lewis and Vaccaro all could make it, with a surprise of 2 sprinkled in.
