Rams @ Saints: Game Predictions
Another Friday, another prediction contest. Like sands through the hourglass, so are the predictions of our games.
By now you should all know what to do and how to do it, but just in case you don't, you can catch up on the rules of the game right here. As always all are welcome to partake, including opposing fans. This is a great opportunity for those readers who have never signed up or commented to finally dip their toe in the water.
We don't have a winner from last week to congratulate at this time because I have completely spaced on calculating everyone's predictions. Results and voting for the Saints/Bengals game will be up tomorrow afternoon. Promise.
So just ignore my mistake, continue like nothing happened and make three new predictions for this weeks Saints game against the Rams. Let's hear 'em!

You want BOLD predicts?
Saints 45 – Rams 10
1. Bradford throws 2 INTs, One of which is a pick-six
2. Roby returns a KO for a TD
3. Rams do not score in first half
Bonus: Will Smith grabs a player by the hair.
"Relax, have a homebrew."
That’s as good a guess as any. I didn’t have anybody in mind. Oh wait….. maybe he grabs a ref by the hair for calling him on a personal foul against Bradford. Then, SportsCenter makes an obvious, but unfunny, simile or metaphor during the highlights to which they all pat each other on the back for making a joke and momentarily forget about the game.
"Relax, have a homebrew."

1. pee wee herman dance!

"I was not on the boat in question" -Darren Sharper
Re: #25 ... CUT THAT CHUMP.
Well, I’ve been saying all along that they’re going to finish 11-5, and they typically play worse against inferior opponents and bring their A-game against the elite. With all that in mind, I figure it’s either gonna be this one or Tampa (or both).
"I was not on the boat in question" -Darren Sharper
Re: #25 ... CUT THAT CHUMP.
Saints 34 Rams 3
1) Saints block a punt or a FG
2) Bedford is held under passing 200 yards
3) Four different Saints players score TD’s
Bonus #1… after the game some CSC bloggers committ suicide apparently because the win doesnt fit any theoretical model for which the Saints suck….
Bonus#2… Grandmaster Wang is elected honorary contributor at CSC after he promises to use the F word no more than 100 times….. High five!
Bring the metal....
Saints 24, Rams 23
1. Rams average less than 4.0 yards per carry
2. Saints fewer than 100 rushing yards
3. Bradford completes 60% or less of his passes
4. Rams lose, but remain in first place in the pitiful NFC West
Saints 28, rams 17.
Lest we forget the last tow games against 2 teams that had a combined record of 4 and 16. We barely beat them both even though Saints were heavy favorites in both. Saint cannot deliver kill shot. They let teams hang around. They do that against the Rams and Bradford might make them pay.
It’s time for The Saints to put the hammer down and start playing Saint football. Stop the stupid penalties, Recover the fumbles. Catch the interceptions. AND please Jahri Evans, do not hold, I repeat, DO NOt HOLD. Wait for the snap Count, ALL OF YOU. Is it too much to ask for a sack? Is alex brown still on theteam? Easy to see why CHi town let him go.
Do the Saints want another SB ring? I hope so. Anybody but the falcons. Everone has already crowned the falcons SB champs. I for one am sick to death of mattie ice. The guy is good , yes, But he aint no drew brees. If the saints don’t make the playoffs, at least I hope they can go into the georgia dome and beat mike smiths falcons.
Let’s take care of unfinished biz first. Rams will be a tough game ,as will ravens and tampa,last game.
If the Saints want it bad enough AGAIN, theyll get it, if theyve lost the the of the tiger, it’s over.
ALL the sirius announcers want ANYONE but the Saints to win it again. Most of them want the falcons to win and have already crowned them. Let’s play th game first okay? Lets get the playoffs started first okay Pat and Tim? Adam , peter, Bob Papa, terry bradshaw(and he’s a LA. boy(traitor). I hope the Saints win again just to spite all these loud mouth know it alls that now hate the Saints. We will see kids.

1. Pierre Thomas scores a TD
2. Steven Jackson scores at least one TD
3. Chris Ivory fumbles again

Saints by 30
1. Brees, after all of this weeks games will be atop in most touchdowns and most yards in the NFL.
2. Lance Moore scores a touchdown.
3. Pierre Thomas makes a touchdown.
Lagniappe: Right after half time, the Saints take notice that Carolina is beating the birds by 20 so they kick it up and start putting on the burners even higher. The Rams coach points to the board in disgust like saying, why do they have to show those scores like that?
by tommy v on Dec 10, 2010 6:01 PM CST reply actions 1 recs
Like that lagniappe
We can dream, right?
"It's about time that something good like this happened." - Drew Brees
The birds are 10-2. They will not beat Carolina twice, they may beat them tomorrow but not twice. Seatle has a good enough team to not only win them, but to kick their ass bad. And of course we will beat them by at least 30. So I see them winning maybe one more game against Carolina, maybe. Like I said before, they’re the second most luckiest team in the NFL, and the number one luckiest Jets already have started to diminish as well as the number three Bucs and they will all continue to fall.
Saints 13-3, NFC South champions.
Falcons 11-5 second NFC South.

2. The flying Frenchman takes a screen pass 20+ yards.
3. With The Tusk playing so well, the passing game opens up. Drew throws for over 350 yards with a 120+ passer rating.
Bonus… This is going to be the game we have all been waiting on. With the Atl upset being over by the end of the 1st quarter, The Dome will rock like never before this season.
