Making the Playoffs - Sacred Math

Our team is pathetic on the road, the numbers in this case don't lie and its getting hard to ignore

We will need a miracle to get .500 record this year

How is beating Tampa at home this week, then the Bye Week getting healthy & fixing this turd of a team, then beating Detroit on the road a miracle?

3-3 is not out of the question. If we play like we did last night and against Cleveland, then I will wholeheartedly agree with you that it would be a miracle to see .500.

Well unfortunately for us, there is no indication we are capable of playing any better than we have the past 4 weeks, I'm not in the slightest bit confident that this team can beat Detroit or Tampa bay.

(remember the giants a few years ago weren't they like 0-6 and went to and won the superbowl) so why wouldnt the saints duplicate that type of season? its still a lot of football left now if this were week 7 and we were 3-4 then i'll get a lil worried but until then stay true homie.

I'm not giving up on the team, I'll be here to the end its just disappointing to watch the team massively underachieve, especially when we all had such high hopes for the season

The only time I'll go back on my statement is if we see radical changes in scheme and play style, but unfortunately I'm not holding my breath for that because the coaching staff are delusional

Unless there are some radical changes across the board, I won't be confident with this team at all.

Right on, man. Judging the season through the first 4 games, I wouldn't be confident either. But we're lucky the bye is early this year to fix some stuff. Refreshing, radical changes would be:
1) NEVER let Morstead try a punter option read on 4th & 9 down by 2 TDs in the 4th quarter on the road. Should be a given, and sounds even stupider when I read this out loud. FIXABLE
2) Secondary communication - abysmal the first 4 games. FIXABLE
3) Can we re-hire Dimke? I can at least forgive him for missing a 41 yard field goal. Graham doesn't have an excuse. FIXABLE
4) Give the play-calling back to the OC. FIXABLE
5) Get better middle linebacker play. NOT FIXABLE
6) Get a better pass rush WITHOUT blitzing. FIXABLE, but doubtful
