Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

The Panthers lose three straight to go 6-5 and are down 4 in the division
Their only option is to sweep the Saints and hope for two more Saints losses

Division could be over before they even faceoff

I shall count no chickens ahead of the hatching, but it sure feels good to be talking about home field chances rather than simply trying to sneak in.

At first they hated him, then they loved him, now its he needs to be gone tomorrow. He made them relevant again. Its not nowhere near jeff fisher levels yet but that is the fair weather fans that claim to be die hard.

Carolina is damn near toast.

I don't see how Rivera will survive after the season. That team is reeling.

If not for McCaffrey they would SUUUUUCK.....
....even more than they do.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

A lot of football left. Outside of us, Bears, and Rams it is a sea of mediocrity. I really don’t see anyone else out there to challenge them for a wild card spot.
They still have as good a chance as anyone else.
They can go ahead and give up the division though.

No it's not but doing bonehead **** in Detroit doesn't help. I think he started to believe his own hype and played the roll of gambler a little too much.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

Another Sean Payton wanta-be? Some one needs to tell him there is only one Drew Brees. That improves your odds significantly when you decide to roll the dice.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

The Saints control their own destiny.

Win Thursday and the Saints earn a wildcard spot.
Two more wins and the Saints win the NFC South.
Four more wins and the Saints win a first round bye.
Win out and the Saints win home field advantage throughout the playoffs.

Any losses by the Panthers, Bears and Rams only make those numbers better.

Anyone gotta SUCK meter. We know the Failcons suck, now the Panteis are overtaking the Failcons in sucking, and Yucaneers, well there the Yucaneers.

Geaux Saints!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

I think we got a shot.

What the hell are they doing riding that little Shetland all day scam newton is what he is turruble

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

the division is a foregone conclusion, but we need to be wary of the Bears jumping into our bye position, although I don't think they are as good as their record.
Just don't want to see us drop from first to third- 4 tough games left for us

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

Damn. I don't like Rivera, never have. But... Damn. They turned on him like a dog with rabies.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

Win Thursday + Panthers loss Sunday = division. Only thing we’re fighting for after that is #1 or #2 seed.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

Three words. Dome field advantage.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

Wooooooooooooooo
Hoooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

That is all.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

I hope im wrong but I don't see Rams losing again. That means we have to win out to get home. I think we can do it but we have a lot tougher roda than the Rams.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

12/9 .. circle that date.

It won't be a track meet in those conditions. You'll have to be able to play sound defense.

I fully expect the Rams to lose this one.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

The Bears could easily beat the Rams. That defense is brutal. The Lions could also pull out an upset. I’m more concerned about us doing what we need to do.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

Why do I see Minnesota coming to the dome for a playoff rematch?

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

I'm snowboarding down from there...….

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

If they beat us twice... Maybe.

Re: Saints up 4 games with 5 games to go
 

See what I'm saying? Mitch Tribisky sucks but that Bears defense is legit.

Rams took the L but more importantly the Saints are back on top with the tie breaker and HOME field.

Keep grinding Saints :bng:.
