CBS Experts Picking the Falcons (1 Viewer)

I make a motion that everytime soneone mentions or refer to "experts" that it be put into quotes.

Also, we should never be allowed to call a game a "trap game." This is an invention by "expert" to explain why they were so wrong when a team they pick lose.

Furthermore, all games are a "Must win." Again, this is another invention. The funny thing is, the better teams always seem to win these "Must win games." The fact of the matter is, good teams win games anyway, regardless if they are "must win games." This is a media hype bit,.... the sad thing is all the fans bite into it. The sad fact is, all players and coaches think all games are "must win games." The quote Ozzie Guillen (White Sox manager), "The games in April are just as important as the games in September."
 
Our annual mid season collapse started two weeks ago.
 
i'll say it again....limit turnovers...we win. We didn't lose to Pitt or Cincy because it was a trap game...we were beating PB at half & should have...even after TOs been leading Cincy after 3. We will be ready to play.

I think Atlanta is a good matchup for us. They are 2nd to last in pass offense against our weak point....big pass plays which goes back even to the Tampa game to Pitt to Cincy. We have to stuff the run & stay in our lanes to keep Vick's running in check. I also think thier D is weakedned since we played them last & our offense is better.

good points. i hope you are right!! go Saints!!!!
 
So much negativity. We still have Brees, Horn, Deuce, Reggie. So freddie is probably out. It's not like Vick throws the ball anyway. Do you guys remember like 2 months ago when we took this team to school?
 
Here is a Non-Expert Pick

Saints currently are 6-4....Conf record 3-1

Altanta...Win
San Francisco....a tough win..SF is on a roll.
Dallas...Lost..No bias intented
Washington...win
NY Giants...Lost..tough call but I'll give NY the edge

Record 9-6....Conf. record 4-1

Panthers currently are 6-4....Conf record 3-1

Washington...Win
Philadelphia...Win
NY Giants...Lost
Pittsburgh...Lost
Atlanta....Win

Record 9-6....Conf. record 4-1

Comes down to the last game of the season...
Panthers @ Saints

Panthers won the 1st meeting...21-18

Stay tune for my final predication.
 
Catch, I disagree with your thinking that we will go on a winning streak if we lose this game. In my opinion, I think we'd probably continue the freefall due to frustration and lack of confidence. This team has not won consistently in a month and so I think this game could be a season-ender unless we win it and get some confidence back. We need to stop all these turnovers, too, or I fear they will continue all season long. Just trying to be a realist. go Saints!
 
With that in mind, do we really want the Saints to make the playoffs? I mean, if we do make the playoffs, we will have to play better and stronger teams and we haven't beaten any good strong teams all year and if we do get to the playoffs and lose in the first game all we have accomplished is to lower our draft position and our chances of getting a top player or players. I just don't feel good about our chances this week again just like last week and once again I hope I'm wrong.
You have a good point Marlboro Man. I hope we lose ALL of our games! That way we could get Patrick Willis. And then next season I want us to lose all of those games as well! Can you imagine?? If we go 0-16 for a couple seasons in a row, we can rack up some AWESOME draftpicks! Can you imagine 3 or 4 years in a row picking first in the draft! Man we could get some awesome talent on this team to lose with!!
