The 2005 Schedule
 

I like it! Kinda late for the bye but perfect timing as you put it. We got a good chance to get off to a killer start and take advantage of some KEY conference games early. Look forward to the MON night whooping of The Falcons on national TV and earn some R.E.S.P.E.C.T!! Everyone is SOOO high on Vick and the Falcons that it would be nice to show them up with a view!

Sorry guys i was bored

The 2005 Schedule
 

A christmas day game -- that means 2 nationally televised games this year

The 2005 Schedule
 

We beat Rams, Lions and Bears but lose to the Jets and 1 time to Carolina for a 10-6 record -- go to the playoffs since we beat the lions

The 2005 Schedule
 

Well maybe we can get revenge on dem Jets for the Turley vs Robinson fiasco. I got that game on tape watched it last week. Rewinding over and over Turley throwing jets helmet. Excited to Finally see Atlanta vs Saints on national tv. You know what that means this Ohio boy will be pressing record and play. I have just about every game they televised in the mahOning county area since 2002. Still wish I could get my hands on thetape of the Saints vs Rams in the playoffs.

The 2005 Schedule
 

It\'s a good thing they scheduled the Jets for an away game because Doug Brien would not have gotten out of the Dome alive after costing us the playoffs last year.

The 2005 Schedule
 

And i thought i was bored LK!!!!!!

The 2005 Schedule
 

Looks good to me. I like the Sunday night game and the Monday night game because then I don\'t have to drive three hours to see them play. I hope they can break the primetime jinx the Saints have had recently.

I was glad to not see Oakland on there- big mouth burns the Saints like no other. Now that Randy is gone, the Vike game will be fun again.

I\'m excited about playing New England. I\'ll drive to see that one...

The 2005 Schedule
 

This is the best Saints\' schedule I\'ve seen in years.

Open the season against Jake and the Panthers. I really hate the Panthers. Really!!! :mad:

Than a Monday night game against Vick and the Falcons.

A Sunday night game against the Jets.

And a Christmas Eve games against the Lions.

Prime Time baby!!

Let\'s get this season started already.

When the Saints start winning then the media will be all over us.

As well as the pessimists fans ...

Better stand out of the way folks. There\'s going to be a stampede of pessimists trying to jump on the Brooks bandwagon. Oh, and the Jonathan Sullivan bandwagon too!! :D

The 2005 Schedule
 

I look at that schedule and think we will be 7-9 if we are lucky. This ain\'t last years Carolina. They got an outstanding guard and a good corner in FA. They will also have a healthy team more than likely first week of the season.

Minny\'s defense and offense will be too much for us.

GB in GB? Uh-uh.

NE and Jets back to back on the road? Uh-uh.

We maybe able to steal one from Buff and be 8-8, but if Losman is even decent, with the defense and O-line they have, and with Moulds and Evans, uh-uh.

The 2005 Schedule
 

saintwhodi --

It\'s a tough schedule .. no doubt.

But, you never know about a particular team from year to year.

The Falcons haven\'t had back-to-back winning seasons in forever.

The Panthers still have some problem areas.

And you never know who the injury bug will bite.

I don\'t know about the Saint\'s defense. But, if Haslett can get the offensive line squared away, then I think our offense will be one of the elite units.

If we can start the season off by beating the Panthers it will be a big confidence booster.

I\'m always more optimistic than pessimistic this time of year. But, we\'ll see ....

The 2005 Schedule
 

I know you are, and I have no problem with that at all, but for some reason I feel Carolina will be more up for this game than us, cause we knocked them out of the playoff race. Plus, having Davis and Foster and Jenkins back, that\'s HUGE. If we sure up our line we can compete, but there are too many holes on D we will be trying to fix with young players for me to think we can come right out and knock them off.

Falcons will be fine if Vick is healthy. They still have one of the best rushing teams in the league(due to Vick) and they added Hartwell on defense, who I think will be a difference maker. I think we will struggle to even make 7-9 or 8-8. But you are right, younever know who will be good from year to year and who will be injured, I am bading this totally on what each team did or didn\'t do, had or didn\'t have last year. I hope for more, but not likely.

The 2005 Schedule
 

saintwhodi --

As far is the Panthers are concerned ...

Stephen Davis is likely done. He\'s not even the starter this year. And none of their other RBs have proven they can get the job done for a full season.

Jake should have a little better protection behind that improved offensive line but it\'s still questionable.

Bottom line for me is ... the Panthers\' offense doesn\'t really scare me. If they are to go anywhere then it will have to be their defense that carries the load.

In any event ... bring \'em on. :D

The 2005 Schedule
 

Looks like 9-7 to me. We split with Carolina and TB, sweep Atlanta, lose all our AFC East games except Miami, win two of our four NFC North games (Detroit and Chicago), beat the Giants and Rams. Here\'s how it unfolds: we lose the opener, beat NY, and lose the next three. Then we beat ATL and STL to start a 4-game win streak before the bye, building up hope before ending in mediocrity.

The 2005 Schedule
 

let\'s all pray 12-4 or 4-12. no more mediocrity! strong playoff run or bust! anything but 7-9 to 9-7 again.
-----------
saints monday night game is dec. 12. SEC championship game is there 2 days before. that would be a fun weekend if lsu is there.

The 2005 Schedule
 

Anybody else noticed the NFL has a full week of games scheduled on New Year\'s Day???

That\'s gonna be chaos with all the bowl games.

I wonder how the networks are gonna handle that...?

The 2005 Schedule
 

All of the Bowl Games are supposed to be pushed back. That\'s what I heard on ESPN. I feel like LK, win alot going deep into the playoffs or lose plenty and have the number one pick next year and rebuild.

The 2005 Schedule
 

Number one pick = Matt Leinart. I am for that. Since I feel we will only be about 7-9 anyway, i\'ll take option B to get the number one pick and rebuild.

The 2005 Schedule
 

With some D help, we can hopefully make a playoff run. However, I\'ve decided to boycott attending any games until they win 3 straight. I\'m tired of leaving the dome dazed and feeling violated.

The 2005 Schedule
 

We haven\'t drafted yet
June cuts still on horizon
Final roster not even close to set
No preseason games have been played

And you guys are already predicting our 2005 record?

Wow, lemme try this, it looks fun.

New York Jets-At New York? Late December? LOSS

Miami-Nick Saben vs Jim Haslett, nuff said, LOSS

Buffalo-A rising team with a great Defense. LOSS

Detroit-They beat us before, and now have more talent. LOSS

NY Giants-Eli vs Aaron, nuff said. LOSS

Minnesota-Addressed every need imaginable. LOSS (by 40 points minimum)

Green Bay-Brett Favre vs Aaron Brooks? Ahman Green vs Deuce McAllister. At Lambeau? LOSS

St Louis-Ok we get a win. But it will be Martz that wins it for us.

1-15. Yup, may as well not even draft or play this season. I see ONE winnable game on this schedule. And we\'ll probably even find a way to lose that one. Then we\'ll get the 1st pick and screw that up too. :casstet:

The 2005 Schedule
 

Now now Danno, no need to go overboard. since the front office and coaches would have to be fired were we 1-15, we won\'t screw up drafting Leinart. ;)

The 2005 Schedule
 

Danno cracks me up sometimes ... :P

That\'s all I wanted to say!! :cool:

The 2005 Schedule
 

What IS that I smell. I could smell it in another thread not too long ago. Stinky...

Its a smelly kinda smell, that smells smelly. (Mr. Crab)
