by Saintsational on Sep 28, 2009 1:00 PM CDT Comment 12 comments

Time, once again, to vote for this weeks winner of Da Chronic's prediction contest. Not nearly as many people in the running this week, thanks largely in part because most of you were banking on a big performance by Drew.

Nobody correctly guessed the final score.

Vote away!

I'm on the list

But I had to vote for HB-NOLA. Much more specific predictions seals it.

looking back at the score predictions

i think only like 4 of us thought we’d score less than 30 (except some crazy bills fan who thought we’d only score 5—ha!).

props to stu for closest score prediction (24-9)—although my 21-13 was close!…but still totally wrong.

Is this 3 pt. prediction a Sun. a.m. post, b/c I was on this site Sat. afternoon didn’t see it and ended up playing cold pizza’s 1 pt. prediction? Guess I could have missed it. I was to busy yelling at Les Miles.Lots of Fun good idea.Who-Dat…

I usually post it every Friday at 1pm

You can always catch any front page post by clicking on the “Archives” on the top bar. If I post a few FanShots between Friday and Saturday, there is a good chance it could have already fallen off the front page.

And I wouldn’t view ColdPizza’s post as a secondary option. More like the Saints running back rotation, there is 1a and 1b. Except this is 1a. :-)

Gratz HB-NOLA

Predicting both Grant and Smith would each get a sack was a bold prediction!!!

Before you pick your Super Bowl winner ask yourself this: Can you name an offense that can keep pace with the Saints?- Jerome Bettis

Thanks!

It just made sense with the Bills tackles and the DEs lack of production so far. Looking for yet another Sharper INT was a bit much – but he almost had that one thrown inside to T.O.

Specific predictions for the Jets game are going to be tough. As is the game. I’m worried Bushrod may have hurt his leg more. He was getting man-handled out there. I don’t like the idea of Strief being the guy against this Jets D. And that leaves no depth behind Stinchcomb.

I've realized something...

I’ve either got to get a little more specific in my predictions or I’ve got to add a fourth to help increase the “degree of difficulty.” Otherwise, I’m going to wind up as an also-ran all year long…

"Gowin on fourth and 14 will punt it away. He hangs it very high, angling it for the near sideline...HAKIM DROPS THE BALL!!! HAKIM DROPS THE BALL!! Brian Milne might've fallen on it at the ten yard line! It's the New Orleans Saints' football! Brian Milne, the most unlikely hero of them all, falls on the fumble, the muff by Hakim! There is a God after all!" -- Jim Henderson
