New Orleans Saints at Carolina Panthers: Bold Predictions

It’s a pretty common occurrence for fans and analysts to make bold predictions about a game or season. If the prediction doesn’t come true, then that’s OK - you said it was bold! If it DOES come true, though... now you look like a genius!

So in that spirit, some of the Canal Street Chronicles writers were asked to share with me a bold prediction or two for the Week 15 of the regular season for the New Orleans Saints: a divisional Monday Night Football showdown against the Carolina Panthers. This is their chance to look brilliant!

Here are a few of the bold predictions provided by some of the contributors at Canal Street Chronicles:

• Our Davis is better - Demario Davis returns a fumble for a touchdown. (Bob)
• Honorable Mention - Sam Mills sacks Cam Newton twice. (Stephen A. Smith)

Here are my three bold predictions for the game:
