what time is the game? NFL.com says 4:30 yet I keep hearing 3:30 from other places 

4:30. it makes me edgy too.

but... this team has broken all its past barriers, winning in primetime on monday night, on sunday night, on the west coast, against seattle, against green bay, in absence of stars, after a bye.

fug it, saints are gonna die like the rest.

Yeah, it's been a season to be very proud of so far, no doubt.

With a win on Sunday, we clinch the NFC South, if what I've read is correct. I would imagine that the players have to know this as well.

Didn't we clinch the division last year with a big win in Atlanta last season? I'm not putting anything past the Saints, it's still a division rivalry regardless of how bad they may look, but our boys know what is at stake. Right now the Saints are up next, and the players want the W, and that division title again.

Since there's no gameday thread yet (Ahem...!) I'll just post this here.

We're the only team that can clinch our division and/or a playoff spot today based on our own play - i.e. not needing help from other teams.  Sweet.

I'll also throw in my prediction here:  Panthers 35 - Aints 21

    • The last goal was awful luck the second was too tbh    Chatfield tipped #2 in. And Freddie lost an edge 
    • No we don't, if anything, I'd argue that WR is one of the more set positions on the roster at this moment for this coming season. We traded for Johnson to see if he can be a long term guy for us and to give Bryce a #1 who knows how to get open, he's locked in as the #1. Thielen was a stud last year and is locked in as the starting slot They think enough of Legette that we traded into the 1st to get him, he's locked in as the other starting outside WR as of now. This is year 1 of a rebuild, the coaches basically need to find out what they have in Mingo by the end of the year, because of that, he's also locked in as our 4th option, any lower on the depth chart and we might as well just cut or trade him now or his next season is TMJ's from last year. Giving Coker that signing bonus means they are all but expecting to keep him on the initial 53 (now, if he gets IR'd the first time he gets a paper cut, that's a different story, but it doesn't change the final 53 cut down math). ISM looked solid in the returner role last year, so unless they like someone better than him during camp, he's also got a spot locked up. So unless they plan on keeping 7 WRs on the initial 53, they likely only are looking for camp bodies at WR at this point, not someone they expect/want to find their way into the final 53.  And even if they wanted to keep 7 on the roster, at best we'd be looking for our 5th option. Someone like Jones may be an option once we get to the final 53 and then they end up IR'ing Coker as I expect them to do.
    • That's why you don't declare a game over till its over, you jinxed us, Freddie randomly slipping on nothing is proof Jk, but seriously, in the playoffs no lead is safe
