irishbuc Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Atlanta decided to take the week off. Here's to hoping they get overconfident and complacent.Tampa should stomp Seattle. I'm hoping they make a statement on the national stage. Looking for 200+ yards combined with Graham and Dunn, showcasing our ground attack. Hoping the D also steps up. 28 to 10New Orleans @ Carolina is an interesting game. I think Carolina bounces back quickly from the hangover of losing to us and pushes the Saints offensive line around a bit. Brees has a solid game still, but bush and mcallister won't do much. 24 to 20 Carolina.Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolafan33 Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 bucs over hawks- no explanation needed.saints over panthers- saints offense will be successful, we will establish the running game. whoever is back taking punts will have room to run. saints get to delhomme early and shake his confidence. saints win.

Dago Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I'm waiting for the Saints to "establish the running game" if they do they would be a lot tougher team!it would help if we stopped trying to run pitches to the outside. Our linemen just cant seem to get out there and block or its the TE not sealing the corner. Running Deuce behind Brown and Nicks always seems to get positive yardage.

Quite honestly I don't think the Saints and Panthers could be more evenly matched though. I see it just as easily going Nawlin's way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ki46dinah Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Tampa/SeattleAfter the euphoria of dominating a division rival, the old guys go into Seattle without needing pain killers to get the job done. The Bucs will sack whatever garbage QB is in the backfield often...unless its Seneca Wallace, who might provide a spark to the nameless/faceless Seattle offense. Tampa should still dominate on the defensive side of the ball, and be able to run on the Seattle defense...led by the overrated Lofa. Tampa by 17 points.NO/CarolinaCarolina is coming off a massive loss, which will bring them back down to Earth. NO will test their secondary, but Carolina should limit the bleeding by stopping the Saints anemic run game. Carolina has the tools though to play clock control on offense, and can chunk it to a whining Steve Smith/old but ballin Moose. Reggie Bush will have 13 receptions for 40 yards and a TD...to go along with 25 yards rushing and 8 sets of bicep curls. Colston will have a good day, Shockey will get a hangnail and go on IR, and Pierre Thomas will continue to ride the pine for no good reason.Saints by 2 FG's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe horn Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 who kicks them?John Carney, if you believe the rumors.Mehlhaff is 2/3 so far, and you could fairly chalk up that first miss to rookie butterflies, so I feel ok with him. Also the dude is jacked the EFF up; God help any Panthers KR who makes it past the wedge with just one guy to beat - he might make the wrong segment of SportsCenter.

blahblah woofwoof6 Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 which is why the Panthers win. The Saints still have a lot of injuries and the Panthers will be fired up after that big lossWe are getting Colston, Shockey and possibly Ellis back this week. That should help us out IMMENSELY. I've been hearing all week: Panthers will be fired up and PO'd, so a W for them. They will probably be fired up but...You don't think we aren't PO'd either? I know we put a whooping on the Raiders...but we did piss away three W's. Payton and Brees knows we are better then that. It's a big divisional game before we head to London...I think we will be prepared and Brees himself said we will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
