Espn Expert Picks Week 2 (1 Viewer)

[SuperSaint]

I get nervous anytime we're being picked in an almost clean sweep.

I just wish McRib was playing... Beat them at full strength and shut em up.

I think it's more the "but McNabb is hurt" scenario. If McNabb were healthy, I doubt anyone picks us.

If McNabb is healthy, I don't pick us.

That is right I think...

I'm surprised that it almost a clean sweep, being the game is in Philly, whatever the reasoning.

Peter King and now all these guys pick us? I guess all the talking head's comments of "but it was the Lions" is bull. They are starting to feel like we are and MAYBE they actually watched the game during the week to see our defense for themselves.

Exactly......I heard Rich Gannon say that he didn't think the Saints' defense was that much better than last season. He obviously didn't watch the game if he thinks they gave up 27 point to the Lions......go figure?!?!?

When they speak of defense, they speak of total defense including special teams defense.

No way the Saints should have given up 27 to the Lions regardless of how it happened.

Exactly, they actually did their job and probably watched some film and saw something.

Yeah, I do too.

 

[kjl25]

Strange that all of them picked us to win yet they have us 12th in the power rankings and the Eagles 4th.

 

[saints2k8]

Thats whats up ESPN!

Special teams defense is not included in total defense the same way special team offense is not included in total offense.

The two interceptions alone should give them a clue but people see
what they want to see.
When we beat the Eagles the doubters will slowly fade, when we whip some
Pats @zz on national tv then the gloves will be off.

 

[hoopthe12thman]

Eric Allen made his name w/ the Eagles...Like Chris Collinsworth always taking the Bungles. Should be unaimious!

 

[GoldRush26]

Geez guys just enjoy the fact that we're being picked to win! Who cares what they would do if McNabb, Baskett, Reggie White, or whoever was playing? It is what it is.
