I'm not convinced they'll beat the Rams with him. The Giants just hung 30 on that "vaunted defense". How many will the Rams hang on it?

Nothing wrong with wishful thinking I guess...

Yep, I think home field is now a distant dream. Anything is possible, and I've been wrong before (as we know), but right now I'm working under the assumption that we'll be the 2 seed, and that's okay.

They have already beat Seattle twice. I cant see them losing another. We will just have to beat their ass on the road.

Lots of football left.

Arizona is a divisional foe & Philly is still fighting for a spot in the big dance. I stand by my hot take that the Bears will defeat the Lambs next Sunday.

Saints simply need to take care of their business.

Nothing is final until it's final.

I hope you're right about Chicago. I don't think you are, but I hope you are.

You are absolutely right about the Saints needing to take care of business at any rate. None of our remaining games will be easy.

If we are the 2nd team, we will still get a week off in the playoffs and get a home game. Does anybody think we can't handle the Rams in Los Angles?

The best part is we won't have to win out and get to rest up while the Rams are forced to win to hold home field advantage.

We won’t beat Rams in NFCCG on the west coast. Have you seen our playoff record on the road on the west coast?

That's meaningless. How many of the same players are on this version of the Saints?

If TV advertising money has anything to do with it, the refs will never let us beat LA PERIOD.
