Will the steelers beat the saints?

1. Carolina hasn't played a cold-weather game in a couple seasons and this season they certainly don't need anything else to make them any worse. Anyone who believes this is an easy win, let alone a win at all, is a complete moron.

 

2. New Orleans on the road in Pittsburgh? If you have LaVeon Bell on your fantasy team and you're having any doubt about playing him, you should be forced to forfeit your league. Not to mention New Orleans has lost 3 in a row at home where even the officiating couldn't help them. And Jimmy Graham is still Thomas Davis's bitch. 

 

3. Arizona will likely beat the Falcons, but it won't be easy in Atlanta's dome where they tend to get some zebra help as well. Arizona's D has to carry them to the playoffs since Carson Palmer went down.

I could see all of our NFC South teams losing.  We lose out  to the Saints and Falcons ending up in (turd) place.  We get a 10-12 draft position

and MoRon and company continue to build up our hope only to fail and point to the players  not performing.   We need a coach with a backbone taking responsibility and making the tough calls.

I would give the Saints an 80% chance of losing. The Ravens Justin Forcett, rushed for 182 tds,imagine what the Steelers LeVern Bell will do. Both the OL and DL of the Saints seem to lack the ability to get a push,hard to win games when that happens..

I think Atlanta wins this week for some odd reason.

Not sure why. Maybe it's the Drew Stanton factor.

I think saints lose to steelers.

I think panthers lose to vikings.

Surprisingly, I think the Bucs get bad dalton in Tampa and beat them.

Standings after Sunday.

Atlanta 5-7

New Orleans 4-8

Carolina 3-8-1

Tampa 3-9

    • Call me crazy but if you’re in the bottom 7 in efficiency using Zone 84% of the time why not try something else? You paid Jaycee top 5 CB money use him more effectively. Zone is only efficient if you can generate a good pass rush to force a QB into mistakes otherwise you will get picked apart
    • Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.  
    • Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.
