Atlanta Falcons - home

Tampa Bay Buccaneers - home
St. Louis Rams - home
Seattle Seahawks - home
Minnesota Vikings - home
Cleveland Browns - home
Pittsburgh Steelers - home
Atlanta Falcons – away
Carolina Panthers - away
Tampa Bay Buccaneers - away
Arizona Cardinals - away
San Francisco 49ers - away
Dallas Cowboys - away
Baltimore Ravens - away
Cincinnati Bengals - away

Depending on the dynamics of the season, I see no less than another 13 win season.

What if Drew Brees has a season ending injury in week 1?

shut your mouth.

The Saints O-Line is very good though....not that it can't happen but he doesn't get sacked a lot really.

That is why I said "depending on the dynamics of the season".

However, the Saints O line is one of the best when it comes to protecting the QB so if such an injury were to occur it would be a freak accident especially considering how well Brees prepares both mentally and physically to play football.

That would prove to be almost as devastating as Tony Romo having a season ending injury in week 1.

Not really what I was relating too. I was thinking more about Bradford having season ending injury in game 1 of last season for OU and all their injuries. What could have been a fantastic season for OU ended in utter disappointment due to the injuries. It happens to every team.

Dont be so sure .. Cant judge a this year by last year .. Usually I do the pick first 5 games after the pre season .. Remember when your on top only place to go is down , and there is a lot of up and comers in that list ... Look at my Titans one year did great next year SUCK O CITY...

Yep I see it too....

23 - 10 Panthers won
20- 17 Buccs won
24 - 7 Cowboys won

What's funny is this thread was soooooo

even by the mods too.

You'd think the season has started....

**SiggyZ** · 04-20-2010, 12:56 PM

Panthers will not win again unless the Saints are resting the starters since they already clinched the first seed like last year.

TB will not win again for the same reasons above.

In regards to the Cowboys, the score was 24-17 and the Saints were driving down to tie the game when the game ended. It took the Saints only playing the 4th quarter for Dallas to beat the Saints for the first time in 10 years. I'm not going too far out on a limb here when I say there is a good chance the Cowboys can't beat the Saints for another 10 years.

How sweet it will be for the Saints to repeat as SB champs on the Cowboys home turf…

It is hard to stay on track when we've been without football for so long, my mind wanders, lol.

I totally agree.....wife has started asking if I plan on watching the draft.

Her way of reminding me that I have something to do this weekend with our daughter. (100yrs of Disney on Ice)

You are really setting yourself up for one huge crash back to reality.

You're dreaming!! I see atleast 5 losses on that schedule. They're not winning in Baltimore in December. I expect Niners to be much improved this year...they will lose to Homo in Dallas....Steelers could definately beat them at home...and a division lose in Atlanta wouldn't suprise me either.

11-5 at best!! Oh yeah,they got the Vikings too,maybe 10-6 and limping into the playoffs.Didn't they almost lose to the Redskins last year?The Saints aren't as dominant as people seem to think.

If that is the case, the other 31 teams must really suck since the Saints are just dominate enough to be the reigning Champions of the World.

As for the rest of your post:

1. Baltimore got smoked by the Colts in the playoffs last year and we all know how the Saints did against the Colts so even in December at Baltimore I'm putting my money on the Saints. That is unless by week 15 the Saints have such a lead over the rest of the NFC that they can already start resting players in which case I wouldn't mind the loss.

2. San Fran, really? Nuf said.

3. Dallas hasn't beaten the Saints in Dallas since 1991. Expect the streak to continue.

4. Pittsburg: This game is going to be played Halloween night in the Superdome. Pittsburg doesn't have a chance, especially without a QB.

5. Atlanta might squeak one by week 16 against the Saints second string.

6. Minnesota: this game is week one, at home, after presenting the SB XLIV Championship banner. Minnesota has the cards stacked against them especially since the defending SB champs have never lost their home opener then next season since the NFL started putting that game on Thursday night.

This is the same thing I heard all last season too. Forgive me if I don’t start believing it now, especially since we are talking about the reigning super bowl champs.

The Colts gave the Saints the game,the Colts beat themselves.If Indy didn't have the injuries to Wayne and Freeney,not to mention Bob Sanders was out for the year ,the Saints would have had their asses handed to them.

Dallas beat your Saints in the Superdome...where's your logic in thinking they can't beat them at their place?

Roethlisberger is looking at the most,if any, a 4-6 game suspension...He'll be back for the Saints game.

Baltimore is a much better team this year,they actually have receivers now.

Minnesota...what did Peterson fumble?4 times?...that won't happen again.

The Saints had a good year and everything went their way,it won't happen again this year.

He will be a Steeler on opening day.

Ben's suspension is B.S. There were no charges filed against him....not like Michael Vick...who was charged ,and convicted.

The only reason he's suspended is because the NFL doesn't want to have a bunch of shitheads coming down on them for being racist.

So why does a player have to be arrested to go against the Code of Conduct rule ??
