Let me amend that prediction. If they turn the ball over 3+ times per game, they have 0% chance of reaching the playoffs. If they play decent football, they have a 74% chance

Meaningless. They go on another 1-3 jag, they'll be 7-7. This team can't close the %$@& door, and doubt is obviously settling in.

When the media says "Same Old Saints", we'd best not cry for respect until the entire season is done.

luckily we play teams that pay divedends in the playoff race - San fran and Atl are big wins for a wild card - a win against the cowboys or giants would be huge.

best case scenerio for us now would be the carolina game being for the div winner with a wild card berth being there for the looser - and not a must win and get in against carolina.

we will see now that the fire has been turned up how we play - the defense doesnt look to be playing with the same firs as earlier in the year - that needs to return, we need more consistant pressure on the qb to help the secondary and we have some young qbbs comming and cant let them sit back there.

Romo, canbell, smith, and even eli can be had with pressure - time for grant to earn the big contract he wants -

I almost wish we were 3-7 now. I'd rather go 6-10 than have yet another Saints collapse.

You took the words right out of my mouth Jonesy77.
