Malcolm Jenkins. 2011 Pro-Bowler. |
Only if he goes all Drew Brees and tries to make every play on defense. |

Oct 21 2011 |
When Ivory is 100%, he won't be active on game days. Joique Bell will be activated prior to Ivory. |
Joique: Still waiting for another chance |
TUSK!! played in both week 8 and 9 games. |

Nov 3 2011 |
Peyton Manning will not play another down in the NFL. |
I smell vinification. |
||
|
Nov 3 2011 |
Peyton will play again. |
"I wasn't healthy when I signed the contract," conceded Manning, "and if I'm not healthy in February, I think it's fair for the Colts to be able to make their decision there." According to NFL Network's Michael Lombardi, Manning will be due a $35 million commitment in February. Whether he sees that money or not depends on the progress of the fusion in his neck. -Nov 4 |

He will then go the way of JaMarcus Russell...sCam (Cam Newton) is a flash in the pan. |
Remind me: Was JaMarcus Russell NFL rookie of the year? |

Aug 8 2011 |
Jimmy Graham's 2011 season will not be better than Shockey's 2009 season |
Shockey: 569 receiving yards, 3 TD's Graham in 9 games: 791 yards, (5th in the NFL) 5 TD's |
Unless you're telling me he has to also catch the winning TD pass in the super bowl, I'm putting this one to bed. |

Aug 3 2011 |
Saints go 5-1 in division, lose @Tampa 15-1 blah blah |
2-1 after 9 games, lost @ Tampa |
||
|
Aug 3 2011 |
Bucs will go at least 11-5 and push us for the division title |
Currently 4-4, still possible. But they need Jesus1000. |
||
|
Aug 28 2011 |
Saints sweep Bucs in 2011 |
Eternal optimism. |
Lost @ Tampa 20-26 |
|

May 1 2011 |
The Falcons will begin a steep decline based on this draft. |
They're 5-3 and still get to play some crappy teams this year. |
||
|
Aug 3 2011 |
Atlanta will hit 9-7 (Julio will fail miserably, and Ryan will do worse than 2010 in passer rating) |
Tony Gonzalez thinks Julio Jones is the best. This is all possible if Jones reads his press clippings. |
||
|
Sep 4 2011 |
I don't think the Foulclowns will even make the playoffs this year. |
Not much objective thinking evident at CSC. |
||
|
Aug 19 2011 |
Matt Ryan will NOT lead the league in TD passes, not even top 3, but maybe top 5 |
Ryan has 12. Fitzpatrick is 5th with 15. |
||
|
Aug 4 2011 |
Tarvaris Jackson goes .500 in 2011 if he starts an even number of games greater than zero |
He has started 6 games and won 2, so he's on track. |
||
|
Aug 4 2011 |
Seahawks go under .500 in 2011 |
2-6 and Charlie Whitehurst, although he sort of resembles him, is not Jesus1000 in any way. |
||
|
Jul 13 2011 |
Jimmy Graham: 10 TD's in 2011 |
At 5, half way there through 9 games. Can he stay healthy? |
||
|
Apr 29 2011 Jun 8 2011 |
Ingram pick cost too much with too much risk. Overrated, potential bust. |
A bust like Daniel Thomas? Or Reggie Bush? Or Antonio Pittman? |
||
|
May 1 2011 |
Ingram scores only 2 to 4 TD's IF he makes the team. |
3 TD's in 7 games where he was able to play. So far. |
||
|
May 1 2011 |
Ingram has injury concerns, may not have been the best running back prospect in the draft, and doesn't represent a great upgrade over Thomas/Ivory. and when you consider the price, it was a bad pick unless Ingram puts his butt in the Pro Bowl multiple times or keys another Super Bowl run. |
Depends on how you define "bruised heel". Would Pierre/Sproles/TUSK!!/Joique have been adequate, and the pick should have been used on a linebacker? Fax that to Mickey and tell me what he says. |
||
|
Jul 6 2011 |
Ingram starts more games than Jordan in 2011 |
Oh no. This is not going to happen. |
||
|
Jul 12 2011 |
Ingram DOES NOT start more games than Jordan in 2011 |
Jordan 9, Ingram 2 |
||
|
Apr 28 2011 |
Morstead and 2011 Saints will set NFL record for fewest punts and team record for 6 games without a punt |
This from the man who said the Saints would be down 17-0 in St Louis. |
||
|
Apr 24 2011 |
Thinks our run game will be Top 5. |
9th after 9 games, but trending up. |
||
|
Aug 15 2011 |
Saints' offense will rank in the 12th to 18th range this season |
#1 after 9 games. (Yards per game) |
||
|
May 2 2011 |
Three NFC South teams with double digit win totals in 2011. |
Tampa will need to perk up for this to happen. |
||

Aug 19 2011 |
Saints are going to sweep the division. |
Well that didn't happen. |
Beat Carolina but lost @ Tampa. |
|
|
Aug 19 2011 |
Mike Vick will have a mediocre season and not make it back to the top 5 for MVP voting. |
Dog lover. Vick's team sucks too. |
||
|
Oct 4 2011 |
Eagles won't make the playoffs. |
After getting beat by Jay Cutler and the Bears AT HOME ON MONDAY NIGHT, they should be disqualified. Now 3-5. |
||
|
Aug 21 2011 |
Lance and Meachem each have better seasons than Colston (better in 2 out of 3 categories: Receptions, yards, TD's) |
After 9 games: Lance 33/358/3 Meach 27/290/3 Colston 34/476/3 |
||
|
Aug 21 2011 |
Moore's season more likely to be better than Colston's than Meachem's as compared to Colston's. |
That's probably going to be right. |
||

Apr 28 2011 |
Whoever drafts Da'Quan Bowers will see him balloon up during the inevitable rehab |
Hey, he could still get hurt. And they have Papa John's in Tampa. |
||
|
May 1 2011 |
Martez Wilson, not Mark Ingram, makes the biggest impact of all rookies this season. |
Wilson has 3 tackles in 7 games. |
||
|
May 2 2011 |
Wilson probably has the best chance of our drafted rookies to win Rookie of the Year |
Maybe you should hang out with Hans and get some predicting tips. |
||
|
May 4 2011 |
Martez Wilson will be the best overall performer of our draft class |
Maybe Hans can form a support group. |
||

May 2 2011 |
Junior Galette will be a starter this year |
Not yet, he's not. |
||
|
May 4 2011 |
Ingram won't have more than 3 games with 13+ carries |
13, 14, 9, 17, 9, 9, 14, but let's keep this going if the heel bruise heals. |
. |

May 4 2011 |
Ingram will have 8 games with 13+ carries & 50%+ more rushing yards than teammates |
Somebody was feverish with INGRAMANIA!!! |

Nov 2 2010 |
The over thrown would be TD pass to Strief in week 8 of 2010 indicates Brees' QB career peaked in 2009 |
Drew BREEESSS!!! has proven this to be false. He's performing at a very high level in 2011. |
||
|
Aug 28 2011 |
Drew Brees' best years are behind him |
Geez, Mr. Dave. That seems pretty harsh and unfair. What got into you?? (See what I did there?) |
||
|
Jul 14 2011 |
Drew Brees will prove he is not in decline by throwing less than 10 interceptions and winning the league MVP award |
Well, the MVP thing is still on the board. We'll need a collapsible baton and access to the Packers' locker room. |
||
|
Oct 15 2011 |
Drew Brees wins the MVP award. |
Or, we could get Aaron Rodgers to ride through Dealey Plaza. When do the Packers play the Cowboys? |
||
|
Aug 24 2011 |
Drew Brees is not declining or losing his focus. |
Declining, no. Focus on trying to win the game for his team? Oh yeah, he's got that. |
||
|
Aug 15 2011 |
Drew Brees will throw 38 TD's and no more than 14 INT's this year |
21-11 in 9 games, I guess that's possible. But only if he loses focus. |
||
|
Oct 1 2011 |
Drew Brees: 4500+ yds. and 30+ TD's this season, and that the Saints win at least 12 games |
You're dancing. (Microsoft Golf for PC, anyone? Hello?) |
||
|
Jul 14 2011 |
Pierre Thomas will lead the team for the season in rushing yards and rushing TDs |
Ingram 329/3 Sproles 347/2 Thomas 311/2 |

May 14 2010 |
Condemned Ricky Williams draft day trade, applauded Tebow draft day trade |
Tebow Time is making a resurgent splash. Rotoworld: The Broncos coaching staff has installed the read-option offense for Tim Tebow. Let's see how he does in KC. |

Shaun Rogers will make a big impact on defense for the Saints in 2011. |
What a big fat disappointment. |
||

Jul 11 2011 |
Shaun Rogers in 2011: 2-3 sacks tops |
0 in 9 games. 10 tackles, 5 assists. Can Martez Wilson play DT? |

I had no idea we were 9th in rushing
Kinda surprised me.

Regarding Tebow
“Let’s see how he does in KC.”
I wouldn’t use that as a measuring stick after watching Matt Moore toast them for 3 TDs. Heck, if Rivers doesn’t straighten out his turnover problems and the Raiders don’t pull it together, Denver could actually win that division. Kansas City is going to win it…they lost to the Dolphins at home.

You don't follow the AFC West, do you?
“Consistency” is not a word used to describe any of the teams.

The AFC West is consistently inconsistent. San Diego should have been dominating that division for a long time.

Except, outside of maybe four players, they have a pretty bad team.

I meant the division, but you can go ahead and put me down for that game, too, anyways. I picked them in our pick’em league, so why not stand by that pick?

Meaning that KC won’t win the division…I’m not ruling out Denver, but I’m not picking them, either. Wow…I need to work on my writing a bit. I have already had to clarify myself at least three times today to different people.

Well, at least I have provided some entertainment today :o)
by BlackandGold4ever on Nov 9, 2011 3:29 PM CST up reply actions
Just to make up for not picking Denver to win the division…I will say that the Packers are going to lose at least two games this season. I can’t believe Charles Woodson is running his mouth about the chance of going undefeated. Especially with that sorry defense and running game.
by BlackandGold4ever on Nov 9, 2011 3:39 PM CST up reply actions
At least the results so far back him up....
though to be fair, I don’t think any one in Packerland even believes this team will remain unbeaten. I am picking the Giants to hand them their first loss.
Regarding defense, yes its been horrible but they lead the league in passer rating differential by a wide margin and are #2 in the DVOA rankings as well (mainly due to the offense). I think the addition of Mike Neal to the line up will boost the defense back to where it was in the latter half of last year.
by LombardiBackToGB on Nov 9, 2011 3:55 PM CST up reply actions
It just seems odd to me because I thought their defense was pretty good last season…what happened?
by BlackandGold4ever on Nov 9, 2011 3:59 PM CST up reply actions
Mainly the loss of Cullen Jenkins and Nick Collins
is the widely held view (http://packersnews.greenbaypressgazette.com/article/20111108/PKR07/111108133/Pete-Dougherty-analysis-Absence-Collins-Jenkins-takes-toll-defense?odyssey=tab|topnews|text|FRONTPAGE).
Morgan Burnett is injured and playing with a club on his hand, Woodson clearly has lost a step, Peprah is still adjusting to what is being demanded of him. To me, BJ Raji has been a no-show the last couple of games which is allowing QBs to step up into the pocket to avoid the rush.

Tebow will wilt at Arrowhead. Listed.
Tebow Spread!
Welcome to the party, we're all just papers in the wind
how did he get away with only passing 8 times???
and a 25% completion percentage… hilarious.
and they won. crazy!
They are actually tailoring the offense to his abilities. And when you look at that division, they have as good of a chance to win it as anybody. I’m actually thinking it will be between them and Oakland unless San Diego’s offensive line learns to block. After watching them play Thursday night, I can say that is the worst blocking I’ve ever seen. And Rivers’ poor play isn’t helping anything.
by BlackandGold4ever on Nov 15, 2011 7:18 AM CST up reply actions
If Palmer continues to play like he did in the last game, and even gets better. I think Oakland has a really good chance of taking it.
Denver’s opponents need to call Les Miles to see how they stopped Darren McFadden in the Wild Hog.
All 4 teams are 2-2 in the division. And only San Diego has a winning record at home. Only Denver and Oakland have winning records against the AFC, too. Talk about a hot mess.

Regarding Vick
He just looks confused against teams who challenge him with their defense. I can’t say if they’d be better with Kolb…and nobody knows if there were any ridiculous offers for him like the one they got for Kolb.
by BlackandGold4ever on Nov 8, 2011 3:52 PM CST reply actions
I don’t think he looks confused so much as he needs a line that cares. It’s kinda like Brees, he’s being hurried a lot and look what he has done thus far—turn the ball over a lot.
Haters gon' hate...
And throw over 20 TDs. Seriously, you’re comparing Vick to Brees?
by BlackandGold4ever on Nov 11, 2011 7:56 AM CST up reply actions
There’s that personal logic again, sounds good but if you just take a step back from your bias, you could understand what I’m saying. I’m comparing a qb to a qb. It’s not like I’m comparing Tebow to Brees and even it I was they are playing the same position soooo why wouldn’t I compare them? Isn’t that what the analyst do? They say this guy is good at this, or that then show a stat comparing the other players at his same position (elite and not elite). Come on man!
Haters gon' hate...
If there is some bias, I think it has to be on your part. Especially if you’re sold on vick after yesterday’s game. It isn’t just me who is saying this stuff…just go listen to some actual commentators. Or just follow blindly along because you have defined your position. And by the way, what would Brees do with Maclin and Jackson as WRs and McCoy at RB? Just curious if you have factored that in…

I'll volunteer to break into Green Bay's locker room
and sacrifice myself for the greater good. I just need someone to finance the trip. I spent all my money on sending assassins to Wisconsin with no success. Apparently Rodgers has loyal soldiers by his side at all times…….and we possibly have a spy in our ranks.

Gil Brandt sides with the INGRAMANIA!! immune:
Mark Ingram, RB, Saints (first-rounder, 28th overall): He’s averaging under 4.0 yards per carry in a crowded backfield. Ingram’s missed time because of injury, and his longest play is 20 yards. He’ll pass protect but doesn’t look like he has the quickness you want in a back. He’ll be a good player, but not special. If the Saints traded up again, they would have gone in a different direction.
Welcome to the party, we're all just papers in the wind
Gil… I’ve told this to my compadre’s at CSC, but I’ll repeat it for you…
He’s a rookie!! Most rookies suck! Go look at your history books.
Emmitt Smith? How’d he do his rookie season?
Jerry Rice? How’d he do his rookie season?
I’m NOT saying Ingram is the next Emmitt Smith or that he’ll become the GoaT at his position, but they are just two of many, MANY examples of rookies not playing well who go on to do GREAT things.
It can happen!
He’s a rookie!! Most rookies suck!
Gil named 7 rookies that are doing pretty well. Drew BREEESSS!!! How’d HE do in his rookie season?
Welcome to the party, we're all just papers in the wind
right… of the hundreds of rookies that come into the league, some will do well… “most” >50% suck their first year.
more like, 80%+ suck their first year; 50% suck their entire career
You mean that a 1st round pick isn’t a sure fire HOF candidate?
by BlackandGold4ever on Nov 10, 2011 10:15 AM CST up reply actions
I’ve heard all these excuses for a first round, heisman winning rb before. Not buying it. In this system, Ingram will look like a bust.
Haters gon' hate...
In this system, Ingram will look like a bust.
Emmitt didn’t play for an OC that passes in excess of 60% of the time. The key is catering the system more towards Ingram and less towards Brees, as Dallas did with Smith, in lieu of having Aikman continue to shoulder the bulk of the workload.
You can toga party, but you can't toga fish.
interesting...
You’re actually helping me prove my point. Thanks! :-)
“Emmitt didn’t play for an OC that passes in excess of 60% of the time.”
Which means, Emmitt’s offense was designed around him, and he did poorly his first year.
That’s a bigger “bust” than if the offense is geared towards passing AND there are two other competent RB’s that get as many or more carries as Ingram.
As most of you have said, due to Saints Offensive play calling and Drew Brees, no Running back will be the premier player. Drew is that guy and until they allow a single back to get 20+ carries a game the saints will be hard pressed to even get an 800 yard rusher for the season.
Now because of all of that, should we have drafted a defensive player, probably. Whats the point of getting a top running back when you already have 2 that can fill the limited role in the saints O…other than depth of course, threat? Start running more 2 back sets and lets see those threats!
Whats for dinner, dad?
Wookie Steak.
Is that good?
It's a little chewy.
If you’re going to wish for improvement either way, why not wish for improvement in the play calling? You don’t have to pay an entire scouting department to assist in that endeavor.
You can toga party, but you can't toga fish.
but thats the thing, they already have both scouting and play calling and the reality is that they are both above average. But, lets just say for a moment that Payton knew that he would run 70-30 pass run this year, based on numbers thats a possibility, so if they knew then why draft a RB? I’m not saying that I dont want more balance and control of TOP with the running game instead of just score more points and hope to win, I’m saying that the decision to draft such a high profile RB when you already have 2 RB and Sproles is not necessarily the best use of resources. Could we have been better off with a decent LB prospect or even a better SS or CB prospect? Probably. But I think Payton was so scared of injury to his RB corps, see 2010 season, that he panicked and bought security. But heres the other argument to this, if you have a top 5 offense and a middle of the road defense, you have RBs that are decent already, wouldn’t you draft to solidify the defense instead of hoping this RB worked out in 3 years?
I don’t know just a thought.
Whats for dinner, dad?
Wookie Steak.
Is that good?
It's a little chewy.
Sproles was not signed before the draft.
And the draft was primarily defensive—Jordan, Wilson, Patrick, Romeus. Gotta let SP have at least one toy.
Maybe he planned on running more at the time. Maybe he plans on running more every week. He just takes that one little sip on Sundays and suddenly he’s back on the bottle. A former scab QB living vicariously through his elite QB. I have to give Stujo4 credit for putting it into print first. It truly does explain everything.

you could predict...
that the morstead mustache makes an appearance at every game this season. Or that he ends up with the best net average…I think hes 2nd or 3rd at the moment. Honestly though the assertion of least punts in the NFL is very probable. Although the least ever seems to be lost this season.

At least two teams with a new starting QB will make the playoffs this year. At least one of those new QBs will be a rookie
I have no idea what he was thinking.
If the playoffs started today, Carson Palmer and Andy Dalton would render this prediction on point.
You can toga party, but you can't toga fish.
Yes. It was originally stated within the context of offensive system familiarity not being as important as everyone makes it out to be. Of the other 10 teams currently in the driver’s seat for a playoff berth, it wouldn’t surprise me if at least one more loses their starter down the stretch and enters the post season with a less experienced signal caller. It happens just about every year.
You can toga party, but you can't toga fish.
I didn’t have any specific QBs in mind when I said that. I just knew there wasn’t a shortage of new faces on teams at the position in general, and it’s not a trend that only happens once in a blue moon. Two newbies per season seems to be about the average, based on new acquisitions, benchings, injuries, etc.
You can toga party, but you can't toga fish.
You can hold out hope for the Texans…Leinart will be their new starting QB and they would be the #1 seed in the AFC if the season ended today.

What is funny is that I was having lunch with a friend after church and the Texans game was on at the restaurant (I was upset b/c they changed the one TV that had the Saints game on) and he said that if Schaub got hurt, the Texans would be in trouble. I didn’t find out he got hurt until yesterday…I guess we’ll see if my friend was right after the bye week…

Sucks, as I have Schaub in fantasy. Looks like I may be forced to go with Cutler the rest of the way.
You can toga party, but you can't toga fish.
Pick up Leinart. Kubiak spoke highly of him in the preseason and the Texans actually wanted him back. Plus he can throw to Andre Johnson, Owen Daniels, and Arian Foster/Ben Tate.
by BlackandGold4ever on Nov 16, 2011 8:04 AM CST up reply actions
They spoke highly of him in Arizona too.
They benched Kurt Warner and kept him on the bench, as Matt continued to suck.
They reluctantly went with Kurt and put their “up and coming star” on the bench… result = Super Bowl appearance.

Leinart is a poor quality NFL QB.

Tarvaris Jackson goes .500 in 2011 if he starts an even number of games greater than zero
He has started 6 games and won 2, so he’s on track.
Might want to check those stats a little closer, daddio. Jackson HAD started 4 games and won 2, meaning he was already at .500. He’s now started 5 games and has won 3, meaning he’s ahead of schedule.
