Re: Rest of the Season... Predictions

yep but if you want to be taken seriously you gotta play at the very least .500 ball on the road

Re: Rest of the Season... Predictions

- We lose some home games and win some away games
- We will win the South this year

Two pretty generic answers that fit the bill, IMO ... even if the Saints don't win the Division, I see them somehow finishing at least 10-6 and backing into the playoffs, if need be (see post #15).

I think we win @Chicago.

Other than those two....agreed.

I'd almost flip-flop those predictions (and take that bet, ;)), ie W@DET, L@CHI just based on the indoor/outdoor aspect of the games ... waiting to see how DET/MN turns out this weekend to see if the Lions have their heads on straight enough to play the Saints before I can really pick them with any confidence. Right now, the only real advantage I see them having might be "home field", unless their game plan is to kick 9 or more 50yd+ field goals with their new kicker, :lol:.

Who didn't already notice that... Post a cat pick or something... :rolleyes: :cool:

What's cats got to do with it? Although the cat treading water seems on target.

Re: Rest of the Season... Predictions

I took a look at everyone's remaining schedule in the NFC and gave it my best WAG. The way I see it you have:

Division champs:

Seahawks 12-4 West
Packers 11-4 (plus result of Saints game) - North
Eagles 11-5 - East on div record tiebreaker

Wildcards (2):
Cowboys 11-5
Cardinals 11-5
49ers 10-5 (plus result of Saints game)
We beat Niners, they sit at home. They win they are #5

Also rans:

Carolina 8-5-1 (plus 2 games vs Saints)
Lions 9-6 (plus result vs Saints)
Bears 9-6 (plus result vs Saints)
Giants 8-8

Wait until next year:

Falcons 5-10 (plus result vs Saints)
Redskins 5-11
Vikings 2-14
Rams 2-14
Bucs 2-13 (plus result vs Saints)

All of that to say I see us HAVING to win the South to sniff the playoffs AND that will require a 10 win season with 1 of those wins against the Panthers OR a 9 win season with a sweep of the Panthers.
