No, no, I think we can pretty much count the Bucs out.

In a way, it kinda doesn't look good for us winning the division since the Bucs won all of 5 games last year, and still split the season series with us. What kinda crap is that. As a matter of fact, we gave them their first win last year, and now they have a running game. I think the Panthers will win the division, but should we win that first game of the year, I will definitely revisit this view.

I guess all the offseason hype is working for some people. Power to you all because I'm sick of "offseason" hype. Judging from what we've done in the past, we rank third in the division until we prove otherwise. I'm not saying we don't have a chance of winning the division, but instead of believing all this offseason mumbo jumbo... I rather them finally prove they are better than an 8-8 mediocre NFL franchise.

Yea I agree with you BlackonBlack. I've been feeling really depressed lately because of the Saints. I think I should really seek professional help because I really can't stand seeing a football team not perform up to their potential. Screw my house, family, girlfriend, career, etc... Saints football is my life... and since I can't deal with the pressure of them under performing, I should just jump off a bridge.

Hey buddy if you think finishing 7-9, 9-7, 8-8, and 8-8 in the last four seasons deserves hype... go ahead. Whatever floats your boat when you get out the bed in the morning. If you think an 8-8 season along with the last ranked defense in the NFL is improving... LOL I won't even argue with you. If I'm not mistaken, even our offense regressed last year. So how the in world do you come up with us being improved? Where? How?

I'm tired of your blabbering without anything to back it up. Every thread you are all talk just like TO being one of the lowest paid receivers out there. If I'm not mistaken, I was not "updated." But from my recollection, someone kept quiet when they got embarrassed. Throw out numbers... frick ANYTHING that proves your point before you continue to make a fool of yourself.

Why do you keep dodging the question I've asked you tons of time... how old are you really? Come on... you can tell me. I'll understand.

LOL I just thought of something sw... doesn't he remind you of Billy aka Gumbo?

I'm not touching that one papzy. Uh-uh. 8)

Me neither.

It means, over a season, they've been better coached, gotten more out of their personnel.

Nuff said.

Frankly, we're up in the rotation. Tampa, Car, Atl... now us. I think the Saints may be able to do it this year. I think TB will be mediocre as their D declines. I think ATL will fade back quickly to middle of the pack - but they are still dangerous with Vick, and they are a curse to the Saints. Carolina is the team we'll be fighting in the division, once again. (IMO)

I dont no if we can win this division... we still haven't even beat vick when he is starting with the falcons.
