Saints vs Falcons predictions

Danno · 12-23-2004, 04:07 PM

Anyone else get that same feeling I have.

Atlanta-Nothing to play for, stars sitting out.
New Orleans-Everything to play for, win or die.

Well, at least if we do suffer the most humiliating defeat in a couple years, some major changes will be made.

Haslet may stay, but he and Pease may be the only ones.

But nonetheless,

Saints 27
Falcons 13

If Vick does somehow play:

Atlanta 31
N.O. 17

If Vick doesn\'t play:

Atlanta 20
N.O. 17

Their defense is still too powerful for us to overcome, and our defense is still to bad to stop Warrick Dunn.

I think we have a good chance of beating them whether Vick plays or not. Our defense seems to be getting a little confidence (although against some bad teams/QBs a little confidence couldn\'t hurt) and the Falcons were beatable last time we played them.

I\'m worried about the game - especially if Vick does not play - because it will be another mental let down trap game that Haslet\'s boys love to lose.

I think our defense is getting better cuz they finally grown to learn how to play together. Our defensive line have 2 sometimes 3 player on the field who didn\'t play with us last year, linebackers Watson & Bockwoldt improved what we had. It brought a smile on my face to finally see a lb step up and attack a rb in the backfield (meaning Watson tackle on Juluis Jones). I can\'t say enough for the play of our Db, Even T-Buck stepped up. 2 more wins and we are in

Since the 2000-2001 playoff win...It has been an emotional roller coaster ride for a Saints fan...So many times seeing flashes of brilliance...and then watching the same flashes engulfed by a huge black hole of inconsistency...The organazation is like a really fast sports car...that is stuck in 1st gear...and when it does shift to second gear.. the occasional lap or two it is blind-sided by a huge 18 wheller carrying a combustible load...If the car can ever get into the upper gears...It wins the race!...With that being said...This is the year in which the Saints put lagniappe into the end of the season and hopefully into the playoffs...So my prediction for tommorow\'s game...ATLANTA..13..NEW-ORLEANS..24..Go Saints!!!! :P

Here\'s my problem with predictions.

With 4 games left it was a question of how many we win. We\'ve already won 2 of 4. Do I see us winning 4 of 4, not really. But anytime we beat the birds is good.

Close Danno!!

Interesting...We were all very close to the final score...The gap between winning and losing might be very small...But the emotional gap is HUGE!!! Go Saints!

Of course! Although it seems like the rivaly isn\'t what it used to be. Why is that? Is it because we haven\'t been good the same season for a while, or is it because our starting QBs share a bloodline?
