The Plan is working!
What plan? How many wins in the first five games will make you think we were just fooling Vegas, the rest of the NFL and Peter King (not to mention me) with losing 4 pre-season games into thinking we still suck just to start the season off with a bang?

Hopefully this is the case but... Lets get real. Pre-season looked just like this.

Re: Fooling Vegas

3-0. That's beating the Cards, The Bucs and the Panthers. Two away games and two divisional games.

2 terrible offenses, and one commanded by a rookie that inherited the worst team in the NFL the past 2/3 years. Cards O-line will make us look good, Jameis may or not play well, but he won't be as strong as Brees on offense, and Cam has no help on offense. Be positive.

LOLOL You made a thread out of my post.... hahaha
.... our plan is so brilliant, it's even sucked ForeverFan in. Go
ahead--- bet against us. You're walking right into our trap.

If necessary, we will lose our first five games, just to "sell it."

If the season looks half as funny as that cat being pushed to his death by his own friend, then it will have been worth my time.

Lets face it... there is nothing that gets me off more then you, Peter King and camping.
0-5 might just sell Payton to Dallas.

Historically (even in the SP era) we play HORRID against rookie QBs!
