Date | Name | Assertion | Remarks | Resolution |
Dec 8 2011 | Jricky70 | Saints @ Titans: This game scares me to be honest. This will be a very tough game. | Helplessly handwringing doesn’t make it easier. | Peter Finney: “New Orleans Saints show poise in tough road test” Saints 22, Titans 17 |
Dec 22 2011 | MtnExile | Saints never win a game after a big Drew BREEESSS!!! game | That’s not really what he said but I don’t have room for his excessive verbiage here. | @Vikings was a big game? He followed it up with an even bigger game against the Falcons. Maybe M-E was thinking of the Saints losing every final regular season game since the 2005 season. |
Dec 7 2011 | Dan Kelly | PRob WILL NOT CUT IT as our permanent #2 CB. | Most think that he’s cutting it adequately when Porter’s covering the slot receiver. | |
Dec 7 2011 | Dan Kelly | .If we let Porter go and PRob is our #2 CB next season, we will not win 10 games. | We shall see, my pretty. | |
Sep 19 2011 | Frenchie | Malcolm Jenkins. 2011 Pro-Bowler. | Well… | Maybe in our heads. |
Nov 9 2011 | BlackandGold4ever | Packers lose at least 2 games this year. | Not in the regular season. | Are they vulnerable? I think so. See 2007 Patriots. Except make it the 2011 NFC title game. |
Dec 24 2011 | tommy | Packers lose their first playoff game this year. | tommy can’t wait. | |
Nov 3 2011 | stujo4 | Peyton Manning will not play another down in the NFL. | Yeah, that’s right. | |
Nov 3 2011 | Satch | Peyton will play again. | Not in the NFL. | |
Nov 10 2011 | TAYDIGGA | Manning will be on a new team next year and will pull a Joe Montana (take his new squad to the playoffs). | He’ll need a neck transplant first. I hear they’re doing that in Sweden. Early stages, developing the techniques. | |
Dec 10 2011 | Jimbo3 Just 'Nother Day | The Colts will keep Peyton Manning in 2012. | As a tutor for Luck? Ask the pupils of Ted Williams how that worked out for them. | |
Oct 4 2011 | GSO Saints Fan | He will then go the way of JaMarcus Russell…sCam (Cam Newton) is a flash in the pan. | A lock for 2011 NFL Rookie of the Year. The kid is good. Admit it and move on. | I’m putting this one out of its misery. |
Nov 9 2011 | Satch | The Bucs won’t make the playoffs this year and may even finish behind the Panthers in the division. | This, after they picked up Albert Haynesworth. | Good call, Satch. |
Aug 3 2011 | Northfan | Saints go 5-1 in division, lose @Tampa 15-1 blah blah | Yep yep nope | Still an impressive compound prediction, though. Good job. |
May 1 2011 | GSO Saints Fan | The Falcons will begin a steep decline based on this draft. | Can it be steep if they make the playoffs? But the fans aren’t happy, here and here. | |
Aug 3 2011 | hansdat | Atlanta will hit 9-7 (Julio will fail miserably, and Ryan will do worse than 2010 in passer rating) | 10-6, Julio Jones is pretty good (Rotoworld: He's quickly eclipsing Roddy White as the Falcons' best receiver.) | And no, Matty’s rating improved to 92.2. |
Sep 4 2011 | FriarBob | I don’t think the Foulclowns will even make the playoffs this year. | Well, they’re in, clown face paint and all. | Not as good as they thought, but at the dance. |
Aug 19 2011 | Dan Kelly | Matt Ryan will NOT lead the league in TD passes, not even top 3, but maybe top 5 | This is true, he came in 6th. | But is that bad? I mean, really? |
Aug 4 2011 | coldpizza | Tarvaris Jackson goes .500 in 2011 if he starts an even number of games greater than zero | He started 14 and won 7. | Some kind of sleight of hand going on here but I’m not smart enough to figure it out. |
Aug 4 2011 | Breesus Christ Superstar | Seahawks go under .500 in 2011 | 7-9 Revenge is sweet, suckers. | Marshawn Lynch is still a beast, though. |
Jul 13 2011 | Preston J. Gary, Jr. | Jimmy Graham: 10 TD’s in 2011 | 11 | Good call. |
Apr 29 2011 Jun 8 2011 | xen-cuts were gonna need a bigger boat Andrew Juge | Ingram pick cost too much with too much risk. Overrated, potential bust. | I don’t know how you objectively measure the cost and risk. We can’t call him a bust at this point, can we? | |
May 1 2011 | Hi_Fidelity | 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. | It’s turf toe! You’d rather have Demarco Murry? Really? And you’re concerned about injuries? Who knew Payton was going to manage a stable of situational running backs in 2011? Raise your hands… Let’s keep this one open for debate. | |
Apr 28 2011 | HansDat | Morstead and 2011 Saints will set NFL record for fewest punts and team record for 6 games without a punt | Fewest punts in the leaguefor regular punters, I’ll give you that. | There’s always next year! |
Apr 24 2011 | MtnExile | Thinks our run game will be Top 5. | 6th in yards, 4th in averageyards per carry. | Really pretty good for a Sean “I was a quarterback” Payton. |
Aug 15 2011 | FuSoYa | Saints’ offense will rank in the 12th to 18th range this season | 1st in passing, 1st in totaloffense. | You one of those decliner fanatics or something? Well, are ya?? |
Nov 15 2011 | tommy | Detroit wins at least one game with Green Bay | No, not this year. | Are you willing to go double or nothing on this in the playoffs? |
Oct 4 2011 | BlackandGold4ever | Eagles won’t make the playoffs. | Boom. Notice the date. | You’re the only one I know who said it, especially this early. Talk about overrated. Sheesh. |
Aug 21 2011 | stujo4 | Lance and Meachem each have better seasons than Colston (better in 2 out of 3 categories: Receptions, yards, TD’s) | Lance 52-627-8 Meachem 40-620-6 Colston 80-1143-8 | The decline theory for Colston did not carry on throughout the season after a promising early start, I was wrong. |
Aug 21 2011 | EasyBreesy | Moore’s season more likely to be better than Colston’s than Meachem’s as compared to Colston’s. | The odds were with you. | Colston had a nice second half of the season, good call. |
Apr 28 2011 | stujo4 | Whoever drafts Da’Quan Bowers will see him balloon up during the inevitable rehab | Is ANYONE seeing Da’Quan Bowers, at all?? | Ok, he’s not hurt and he’s not a big hog. But you have to concede he was probably drafted too high even without the injury. |
May 1 2011 | were gonna need a bigger boat | Martez Wilson, not Mark Ingram, makes the biggest impact of all rookies this season. | This season. Not the last game of the season. | I say no. What say you? |
May 2 2011 | Northfan | Wilson probably has the best chance of our drafted rookies to win Rookie of the Year | Check the date. What did you guys see in him?? | No. But best chance of rookie of the day for Jan 1, 2012, edging out Cam Jordan. |
May 4 2011 | jray2000 | Martez Wilson will be the best overall performer of our draft class | What? No. | Reassess and get back with me about him for 2012. Will he take Shanle’s job? |
May 2 2011 | tommy | Junior Galette will be a starter this year | Yay! He started week 16. | He’ll have to find a spot due to injury in 2012 though, right? |
Nov 2 2010 | Stujo4 | The over thrown would be TD pass to Strief in week 8 of 2010 indicates Brees’ QB career peaked in 2009 | ahem | I heard something about some career highlights this year for Brees, so the peak will have to be marked beyond 2009. |
Aug 28 2011 | Mr. Dave | Drew Brees’ best years are behind him | hmm | When using the internet, perhaps we should all think about what we are posting, due to the potential perceptions of others. |
Jul 14 2011 | Satch | Drew Brees will prove he is not in decline by throwing less than 10 interceptions and winning the league MVP award | 14 picks. Waiting for MVP announcement. Not in decline. | |
Oct 15 2011 | were gonna need a bigger boat | Drew Brees wins the MVP award. | If he has to share it, does it count? | |
Aug 15 2011 | SaintsFanInIraq | Drew Brees will throw 38 TD’s and no more than 14 INT’s this year | Wow, 46 and 14. | Good call. Did you pray about this? Just a rhetorical question, no answer needed. |
Nov 27 2011 | cajuncommando58 | Drew will throw no more than 2 more INTs for the rest of the regular season. | Well, he threw 3 in the last 2 weeks. | That was very close, I’ll have to give it to you. I would not have predicted he could turn it around like he did. |
Oct 1 2011 | were gonna need a bigger boat | Drew Brees: 4500+ yds. and 30+ TD’s this season, and that the Saints win at least 12 games | 5,476-46-13 | Whatsamatta witchoo? You got no faith? A better season than anyone expected. |
Dec 16 2011 | tommy | If Brees goes the rest of the year with no injury, he will become the highest paid QB in the NFL this off season. | Tom Condon’s salary demands will provoke the Franchise tag. | |
Dec 16 2011 | BRSaintsFan | Dree Brees will NOT become the highest paid QB in the NFL | Franchise tag or not, this is probably going to happen. | |
Jul 14 2011 | Satch | Pierre Thomas will lead the team for the season in rushing yards and rushing TDs | Sproles with 603 yards, PT tied with Ingram with 5 TD’s. | Still a nice year, an important member of the committee. Or stable, if you prefer. |
May 14 2010 | VAsaintsfan | Condemned Ricky Williams draft day trade, applauded Tebow draft day trade | Tebow does win some games. Is that enough in the NFL? Is that enough to exceed the value of Ricky? Stay tuned for the playoffs. | |
Jul 2 2011 | Preston J. Gary, Jr. | Shaun Rogers will make a big impact on defense for the Saints in 2011. | He’s old and fat and can you really say he’s fit? | I’d say “minimal” rather than “big”. Unless we’re talking about his ass. |
Jul 11 2011 | coldpizza | Shaun Rogers in 2011: 2-3 sacks tops | Yeah, how about -0-? | “That’s not his specialty, he’s a run stuffer.” Don’t get me started on the Saints’ Roto-Rooter bills again. |
Jul 12 2011 | coldpizza | 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 | Houston and Delhomme? Denver and Tebow. | You were probably counting on Gingey Andy and the Bengals, but they let you down. It’s a recurring theme. Beware. |
