Saints Odds of Making the Playoff (Fan Prospective)

SaintFanInATLHELL · 12-07-2016, 09:10 AM

Now that I'm reading all the replies, it seems that the Saints actually have some real goals for the last quarter of the season:

1. Put together a real winning streak.
2. Both win in the division and play spoiler in the division. As we all know, if you cannot win your division games, the chances of moving far into the playoffs are slim and none.
3. Get a winning record for the first time in 3 years.
4. Have positive momentum into the offseason.
5. Keep open the slight chance of sneaking into the playoffs at 9-7.

Since there's a lot to play for, let's keep hope alive...

This season was over when we went 0-3.

I haven't changed my mind. We were done then. I hate winning games at this point just costing us draft picks.

Draft picks we can't control. Beating the team in front of you... Now that we can control.

Every game will be a 'must win'. Four chances to take the division against very beatable rivals.

Health and turnovers will be key.

It's going to be difficult, the Bucs are peaking at the right time, just like the Lions were and they completely whipped us in the trenches.

If we go 4-0, 70% chance we make it
If we go 3-1, 10% chance we make it

Every game from here on out is a playoff game.

Greater chance of them eating a hamburger...

	Super Bowl Championships: New Orleans Saints:1, Carolina:0, Atlanta Chokers: STILL ZERO Only Atlanta choked in an unchokable situation... Life is definitely good.
