Maroney will crack you in the face if you just stand still expecting to drag him down.. and we're talking about the PATS line. WRs found? It still only added up to 17.. and not to mention 2 INTs for Brady.

By your logic New England should have beaten them lol

LOL! If you're not joking you might deserve a ban for that one.

The cornerbacks they threw at Welker and Moss weren't even in the league a few weeks ago, and Gregg Williams had them playing lights out. Their defense's tackling was phenomenal (holding the Pats to 17 is a VERY good defensive performance).

And what can you say about that offense? Brees threw 5 TDs to 5 different players and had a perfect passer rating. His accuracy is out of control, and they have a solid compliment of RBs to boot. They are a complete team. They've only scored UNDER 30 points 3 times this year (24,27,28).

Their remaining schedule:

@Redskins
@Atlanta
Dallas
Tampa
@Carolina

IMO they're 15-1 at worst. Dallas could maybe beat them. Anyone who thinks the Skins will beat this team is smoking some serious crack. I'll be covering my eyes and peeking through my fingers for this one. Their coaching and team leadership (Sharper, Brees) won't allow them to look past anyone. Plus Gregg Williams wants to kick our butts I'm sure.

Saints: A lot
Skins: Very few.

BigHairedAristocrat · 12-01-2009, 12:05 PM

honestly, i can actually see the skins beating the saints. Every year, no matter how bad we are, we manage to beat a team that's much better than us and lose to a team (or usually, alot of teams) that are just down-right awful. This year, i think the saints are the good team we beat.

2BIG2BSKINNY · 12-01-2009, 01:04 PM

Closer than some may think, but there style of play is just more of an attack style while we shy from making mistakes.... so we lose another last drive game!!!
I would love to see the Skins play like they are 3-8! and leave nothing in the tank and take all the chances they have and not leave any bullets in the gun!

Saints 31
Skins 28

P.S. there are a couple injuries that could make he game closer or even more lopsided! Is Haynesworth going to play? With out him we look average at best...All the early season talk of his play was nothing more than an analysis of his pockets!! With him not in the lineup, I would say He has been doing a good job all year cause now we are not getting as much pressure!

Is Hall going to play? I am not sky high on Hall but he is better than Smoot!!!! We are going to need all of our DB's to play tight! Tryon is looking better these days...not great but decent!!!

I want the same things I've wanted in the previous weeks. I want to see the team play well and play hard, only to loose by a few points. I don't want Snyder to have even the slightest reason to retain Vinny as Executive Super Intendent of Fantasy Football but at the same time I want the team to be good enough to attract quality talent evaluators and coaches in 2010 and on top of that I want the team to have some confidence going into next year. If they just got killed on a weekly basis it wouldn't serve well for the team going into next year. However if you loose close games to good teams you're not totally deflated and you play with a chip on your shoulder.

Monkeydad · 12-01-2009, 02:45 PM

Skins 24
Saints 23

budw38 · 12-01-2009, 03:45 PM

Just tell misses Woods that Brees is trying to set Tiger up with a Saints cheerleader , she will them fly to NO and beat the shit out of him

rstone1979 · 12-01-2009, 03:48 PM

In typical style we will win 13-10 and mess up our draft positioning

skinsfan69 · 12-01-2009, 03:55 PM

Because NO is coming off a huge emotional win and has to travel on a short week I expect a close game but NO should win.

saden1 · 12-01-2009, 03:55 PM

24-13 Saints. Our defense is still pretty good...certainly better than the Pat's. You can't have mental lapses against the saints though.

CultBrennan59 · 12-01-2009, 04:02 PM

saints 41 redskins 17...it will appear close and we will either be tied or have the lead at the half but the saints will explode in the second half and win once again.

CRedskinsRule · 12-01-2009, 04:20 PM

did the saints re-sign Chase? if not he better be on the next plane here with their playbook!

calia · 12-01-2009, 05:57 PM

Saints 28 - Skins 20. It will be maddeningly close but we won't be able to finish (again). Haynesworth and Carter/Orakpo make it a game.
