1 In honor of their LSU heritage, Honey Badger, Peterson, and Minter fail to get an interception on the Saints side of the 50-yard line. 2 Mark Ingram gets 150-yards rushing. OK, you all know that’s actually a joke. The real prediction is that Ingram is not active for this game due to a toe injury caused by a burr placed in his shoes by Khiry Robinson. And unnamed CSC/Saints fans. 3 Larry Fitzgerald racks up over 125 yards and 10 receptions receiving after striking Keenan Lewis repeatedly about the head and neck using the near-lifeless body of rookie Kenny Vaccaro |
