SaintsDynasty
Okay guys, this is it! The last prediction contest for a long time a-comin'. Things have been slow around CSC lately with the holidays and the end of a disappointing season so I hope you all take this opportunity for one last chance glory.You're Friday afternoons will never be as exciting again.
Let's also give it up for SaintsDynasty who ran away with last weeks prediction contest. Congrats to him.
So go ahead and make your three stabs at the results of this final game of the Saints 2008 season. For those loooooooong time lurkers out there who read all the time but never say anything, I would love to finally hear from you and to know you're out there!

Predictions
1. Brees comes up short in his bid for the passing record.
2. Defense gets a sack and an INT.
3. Saints have a special teams TD on a blocked punt.
This should be fun
1. Only 1 Carolina running back will have a 100 yard rushing game.
2. Pierre Thomas however will rip up the Panthers for a minimum of 80 yards rushing and 40 yards receiving.
3. Saints win in a stunning upset and help Atlanta clinch the NFC South (because the Falcons will tear up the Rams).
Seattle, the world's worst sports city.
Predictions
1. Panthers gain 100+ yards on the ground.
2. Brees does NOT get the record.
3. Colston does not slow down, he gets at least one TD and 80+ yards.
It's almost game time when this segment pops up - YEAH!!
1. Brees breaks the record on a 4th quarter TD pass to Shockey.
2. Randall Gay gets an INT
3. Brees gets his first rushing TD of the season on a QB sneak in the 1st Q

oops just read that Shockey's not playing Sunday
Change #1 to: Brees breaks the record on a 4th Quarter TD pass to Mike Bell

Saints 31 Panthers 28
1) Brees will have a passer rating over 120
2) Colston will have his 2nd 2 TD game
3) Meachem will have a TD catch as well
WHO DAT
Saints 34, Panthers 31
1. Saints will come from behind to win in the 4th quarter.
2. Brees will break 5,000, but not 5,084.
3. Shockey will leave the game due to injury.
Three years of deteriorating results is enough. Replace Gary Gibbs!
Damn!
Shockey’s already out! There goes my last shot at it. Why don’t they just cut the guy and be done with it…fill his spot with something that isn’t so easily injured, like a Ming vase or a soda cracker?
Three years of deteriorating results is enough. Replace Gary Gibbs!
Projection
1. The saints will lose by 10
2. Colston will have 7+ rec for 90+ yards
3. Steve Smith will have 10+ rec

prediction
1. Brees breaks the record by <10yds
2. Saints win by around 3 points
3. saints season ends.
long offseason again-----DAMM!!!!!!!!!
1)Duece gets a td.
2)Lance has a 80 plus yd. game.
3) Bell gets alot of work, 80 plus yd.s
Saints 15, Panthers 28
1. Breeze makes a pact with the Panther D that they will let him complete all passes, as long as he purposely misses in the red-zone, .
2. Breeze breaks the 400+ record.
3. Panthers land the 2nd NFC playoff seed.
Everybody goes home happy :)
on behalf of tha dirty south: soul food, carolina blue, southern hospitality, and tha queen city
I just hope that if he does break the record, the record-setting pass completion looks better than Strahan's record-setting sack of Brett Favre a few years ago

Deuce is loose!
1. Payton shows some class and gives Deuce the majority of runs 15+ for 75+
2. Brees comes up short, but not for a lack of trying over 35+ passes
3. In the end, Panthers show why they are a playoff team and we are not winning 31-28.
Final note: Deuce will not be resigned, but will have a huge day in the dome for another team next season.
So...
1- Payton will call for over 140 yds on the ground proving that a meaningless record will come second to a Saints’ win.
2- Brees will disregard that way of thinking and go apeshit on the side line with the coach in the 3rd quarter.
3-So Panthers win it 28-20 helped by 3 int.
I can't lose - predictions of a season ticket holder not making the 300-mile Dome commute
1. I will not be paying $7 for a warm Blue Moon
2. No Saint will be injured so as to be placed on IR after the game
3. I am in front of a TV for the 3:15 kicks of Dallas-Philly and Miami-Jets
real predictions
1. Deuce gets less carries than Bell
2. No 100 yard rusher for Panthers
3. Touchdown Buck Ortega
Oh, and Brees throws for 250 at most. Depleted backfield takes its toll.
Thanks to CSC for the season. Coming next week, my 2009 mock draft
Saints 17, Carolina 33
1. Payton has no class and doesn’t play Deuce unless he has to. A hurt PT > Deuce in Payton’s mistake-filled book. But Bell gets a lot of touches.
2. Brees does not get the record.
3. Lance Moore has a good game with 7 catches for 100 yards and a TD.
Saints 36, Panthers 19
1) Deuce, Mike Bell and the practice squad guy combine for for 210+ yards rush/rec.
2) Panthers’ backfield is held to less than 135 yards rushing.
3) Jason David has ANOTHER pick. What’s the guy have to do for you people??
Jake D’s performance makes no one ponder what his career as a Saint could have been. Payton gives another unconvincing PDA to Deuce. Drew comes up short on the Marino record and doesn’t care because they won.
Final predictions
1. Drew and co. will get shut down,less than 250 yds passing.
2. Sean Payton will use all his challenges in the first half.
3. Pierre carries the Saints, but we come up short to lose by less than 7.
Next years opponents look pretty tough, D overhual in the making…again.
My first predictions
1. Deuce for 70 yards and a touchdown
2. Billy Miller with a huge game and catches a touchdown pass
3. Roman Harper makes his first interception of the season
Saints 24, Panthers 21
1. Brees comes no where close to the record: under 300 w/ 2 TDs
2. Defense actually looks decent this game and holds Carolina under 400 total yds
3. Hartley kicks game winner w/ under 2:00 left
Bonus: After game I go out to the garage and have a “moment” grieving the 2007-2008 season and what could have been.
It’s been fun guys, can’t wait till next year (yet again)!
Roll TIde!!!!
Most powerful is the one who controlls his power.
9-7
1. Drew falls short of Marino’s passing record by less than 120 yards.
2. Deuce rushes for 50+ yards and scores at least 1 TD in what will probably be his last game as a Saint. :-(
3. Big Sed (Ellis) will get a sack and then do his PeeWee Herman dance.
I see everyone in the Main Stream Sports Media is picking the Saints to win this one. When that happens, the Saints usually lose. However, I’m feeling a Saints win today to end this disappointing season on a high note and carry over momentum into next season when the Saints will dominate the NFC.
Go Saints!!!!
