WE ALL KNOW THAT PEP IS PLAYING MORE LIKE HIMSELF, BUT WE SEEM TO HAVE FORGOTTEN HOW MUCH MIKE RUCKER AND KRIS JENKINS MEANT TO A STOUT D LINE. DO WE HAVE THE PEP WE NEED TO FINISH THIS THING OUT THIS SEASON?:banghead:OR WILL WE DIE OUT AGAINST 3 OF THE BEST OFFENSES IN THE LEAGUE TO FINISH

We will be fine. There is something different about this team. They have heart. We have been missing that in past seasons. Peppers and others will not die down in this crucial stretch. If anything, he will pick it up. Remember, Peppers has lit up the league the past 5 games. If he would have started the season that way, he would be leading the league in sacks, easily. He is only getting better, and I expect nothing else. With Johnson and Hilee Taylor playing so well in reserve roles, there is nothing to worry about.

The Saints have nothing to play for anymore. I expect to win when we travel down to New Orleans for the final game. Not all players will throw in the towel on that team, but certainly some will and they'll just mail it in.

Beating CAR will give them nothing but pleasure whether or not they have something to play for this season. Remember the year they knocked us out of the playoffs.... Do not bank on that, it's still a divisional game and a game of pride which I believe ALL teams still play for regardless of playoff potential. Just ask Detroit, they want a win irregardless..... :nono:

Hell yeah I remember that one. I was at the game in fact. However the Saints were playing for a possible playoff birth. They needed to beat us and they needed the Jets to beat the Rams. The Rams ended up beating the Jets and taking the last playoff spot instead of the Saints. I don't expect the Saints to be completely unmotivated when we play them, but certainly they won't be as motivated as they would if they were fighting for a playoff spot.
