And here we go
 

4-4. Does history repeat itself or will there be a new occurrence?

What the **** are you referring to?

We're going 5-4 this time. We need to balance the run & pass, and keep Brees clean.

The OP is right either way.

Very clever grasshoppah...but I see what you did there...

Um, look at the seasons where we clawed our way back to .500 and what happened afterward almost everytime(except 2008, which was back and forth).

We are 4-4 and face the same situation we faced before. We face a tough matchup that could make or break our season.

When we fall to one game below instead of getting above, the following games happen
@Houston 10-23
@Atlanta 13-23(5 ints from Brees)
Cincinatti 10-27
@Washington 44-14

This has been the game that has always made or broke us. Carolina is actually not more important than this game because if we lose this game, we're gonna lose confidence on three days rest at Carolina. I hope not but if we lose to Denver our history tells the story.

I get what Will is saying, that during the Payton era, the Saints have been at this crossroads before and it'll be interesting to see if we can have a different outcome...

And despite his usual porcupine-ish response, Danno is completely right in so far as this is a different season with some slightly different characters and that the Saints can't allow previous dives, melt-downs to affect what happens against the Broncos...

One game at a time, and right now it's the defending champs...

We've got to do to Denver what they've done in past games to us - pound that ball right down their f*cking throats...

Even though I've got Brees and Cooks on my fantasy team, I'd rather the Saints take away the Broncos strength of pass rushing and pound those edge-defenders with the Heavy Package of Peat, Strief (and maybe, possibly Armstead); just beat-down those Bronco edge-defenders who won't have their best DEs to protect them...

When all else fails Run like crazy keep em honest.

Re: And here we go
 

I agree RB.
To have any chance this year or in the future?
We have to be able to run the ball.
Any team's WRs will get mugged in the postseason.
Success in the NFL is not defined by how great a QB is.
