Objectively, you described almost verbatim the 2006 season.

14-2

Lose to the Colts on a last second FG and the season finale resting players for the Super Bowl run.

Cincinnati dominated us in the dome last season...

They just flat out lined up and mauled us on both sides of the line...

Losing to the Falcons, in the Dome, not acceptable, even for Payton...

who would have predicted last year's melt down ? ? A loss to Cleveland ? ? 7-9 ?? ? ? Im still pissed, confused, baffled, nervous, anxious, angry, but extremely optomistic . . . We will have Byrd back, Brandon Browner, Vacarro in his normal position, I'm very excited. Ingram, Spiller, Cooks, of course Brees . . . the list goes on and on . . . but please don't come out like last year. That debacle humbled me in a way i can not and will not ever again look at a game and say we got this, especially at home where we USED to dominate . . . Im taking the cliche one week at a time . . . I almost had a damn heart attack last year !! ! WHO DATT ! ! 1

agreed SaintsStunna. predictions are worthless. if last year taught us anything it is to look at things objectively.

Well Greg Hardy wont be playing

Goodell is his wisdom has decided his own investigation means Hardy is suspended 10 games. The man is a joke,well over stepping his job

In hindsight, 80% of our problem was the failure of our #2 CB.

The Champ Bailey signing just didn't work out, and P-Rob and White simply didn't step up.

That combined with the totally unexpected regression of Vaccaro probably cost us 4 to 5 wins.

Had Bailey remotely worked out and Vaccaro not regressed so dramatically, we'd be looking at a 11-5 2014 Saints team easily. That would have given us a home game in the playoffs.

Here's my prediction........all coaches and fans will need a new roster to keep up with all the new additions and number changes.

"Who Dat?! Let me check my roster. I don't know who dat' is. Is he from a small school? I never heard of him before."
