My early pick for the New Orleans Saints' 2016 record: 8-8. Although I think they're capable of beating anyone with Drew Brees at quarterback, and I think their defense can't help but improve. The consistency just hasn't been there in back-to-back 7-9 seasons

A one game improvement? With all the young guys coming back and all the positive changes we made?

I see 9-7 as a minimum and 11-5 as our max.

0-2 out of the gate? Sorry Triplett but you're wrong, dead wrong.

13-3

We shock people but fly under the radar for most of the season.
Defense shocks other teams with how well they play. JL comes out looking like the second coming of Vilma, turns into a leader and voice of the defense. Braeux plays like an all-pro but Lewis has another down year riddled with injuries leaving PJ Williams to step up and start.

I think we'll shock some people this year, I like flying under the radar again. Key is the draft; we have two big holes, OG and DE. We must address these spots with somewhat early picks.

early guess: 10-6

I can see 4-0, but after the bye who knows...

We'll fly under the tire kicking see what's left in the tank for a hometown discount radar!! Strictly for the kid!

I don't think he's too far off. I'm thinking 9-7 and just missing out on a wild card spot. I hope I'm wrong! These last couple seasons have made me more skeptical.

I'll wait until pre season is over to see what we got.

You realize that not one single person is gonna remember this thread in 2 days?

So your opinion right now is that you have no opinion?

Hell, I say 19-0, and anyone who doubts me is a moron.
