Brandon Cooks injures ankle - questionable for Sunday

I have to admit that it feels damn good to be going into a game without having to worry if we win or not. Texans week was stressful because all the JJ Watt/Clowney talk and if our O line would hold up and also being worried about Mallett being the wild card.

 

I can't remember the last time I have been this confident about a victory.

thx, that pretty much ensures the panthers lose.

Saints are still an NFL team. You act like we are playing Appalachian State. I'm pretty sure the Saint's fanbase was confident they'd thrash Tampa, too. Look how that worked out. We need to treat this like any other game and respect our opponent and not take them lightly. 

It's not like App St could beat a Big 10 powerhouse who may or may not have the title of most winningest team in college football history...oh...nvmd

I can name quite a few Saints fans who thought we might not pull out that Tampa game. It was the perfect set up. Team got smacked in the mouth and embarrassed the week before. Division game against a coach that plays a type of defense that Brees is known to struggle against. 

I wasn't confident about the game at all. If I was betting, I would have put money on Tampa.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
