Forecast: Believe! Don't let fear ruin this season

Even I liked that.
I think the reason a lot of people are nervous is because they are looking at how the games have worked out over the course of the season. Yes we are 10-3 but at face value it could be argued that we peaked early. Could be argued that we were at our best with a fully healthy offensive line. Once players started dropping the identity of the team changed. You also have teams that started the regular season looking like **** who are now hitting their stride.
Finally you have the old school Saints fans who have been conditioned over the years to believe what can go wrong will go wrong. Especially when it looks like it won’t.
We all know what this team is capable of when the offensive line does its job. If they do I would almost guarantee a SB win.
I do think the players are motivated. They can’t be 100% happy with the way things have panned out lately either. They will come out with something to prove. We win, healthy offensive line and it’s a blowout. If not I still think we eek out a nail biter.
