Can't predict anything because you don't know what happens between now and then.

If we stay healthy we could win as many as all of them, and if you forced me to choose then I'd say at worst we lose 2.

Rams might lose 1 game...they're frigan division is awful. They may lose at the Bears. I don't see them losing any other game

The Saints last 6 games are:

Home against the failclowns - Dome Game

@ Dallas - Dome Game

@ Bucs - Stadium South

@ Panthers - Stadium South

Home against Steelers - Dome Game

Home against Panthers - Dome Game

Re: The rest of the regular season

A lot of folks underestimating the cowboys. We forget the 09 season already. This is shaping up to be some deja vu. I guarantee we are gonna hear the commentary like we did 09 that it’s not about how good we were all season long and how bad the cowboys were but it’s about who is hot going into the playoffs. Everyone will be all over the Cowboys jock.

Don't see it boss. 2018 Saints team is on a mission. The focus, the will, hunger, the desire to be great on every possession. A great O line that prepares every week. Dak, Zeke & Amari Cooper won't be enough.

More importantly, this defense (since bringing in Eli Apple) has turned a corner.

Tied for 1 - INT's.
Tied for 5 - scoring defense (19 ppg)
16th in total defense (huge improvement over the last 4 weeks).
3rd in takeaways (8).
lumm0x, Barry from MS and frydaddy like this.

Agree. If the D-line can take away Elliot like they took away Gurley....Prescott is no Goff.

"Who is hot going into the playoffs?"
I respectfully disagree, sir. I seem to remember a team losing their last 3 regular season games and going on to win the Super Bowl.

Re: The rest of the regular season

The last two or so times we've played the Steelers at home, the Dome has been over run with Steelers fans with the towels. That team's fan base travels very well. It might be because the towel waving makes them more visible and noticeable, but I feel like the Steelers the last few times they've played in the Dome, were probably the biggest number of opposing fans I've ever seen actually in the Dome at a game. Being that this year's game is so close to Christmas, it worries me that a lot of Steelers fans up north might say, "hey, road trip, let's do Christmas in New Orleans and party on Bourbon street!" and a lot of regular ordinary local Saints fans with family, church and social obligations may not be able to make the game, and will opt to sell their tickets. Christmas is actually a big tourism weekend in this town, and if you have a big family with a lot of family stuff to do, I can see how it can be hard to make time for a game, right before Christmas like that. I could kind of see it happening, it might be tough for some people to make it.

I hope the Dome is loud and raucous for the Steelers game. I remember the famous Saints Halloween night game in the Dome in 2010 was seriously almost 50/50 split between each fan base, it was almost like a bowl game with an even number of fans for each team. Because it turned out, a lot of people with little kids had to do trick or treating with their kids that night. I do remember an amazing goal line stand from the Saints defense that night.
