Our chances against the Saints

If the Saints aren't flat after the emotional game against the Falcons (not to mention pretty much cementing their position in the playoffs), then the only way I can see the Bucs winning this football game is to protect the defense.

To do that, they have to play ball control, meaning a lot of LG and some third down conversions by Josh. It wouldn't hurt to keep Brees doing his Favre impressions, either.

40 mins time of possession and 7s instead of 3s

I would have said the Bucs have a decent chance of winning the game, UNTIL I read the article that the coaches are worrying about themselves.  So, NOW, I say the Bucs have no chance of winning as the leadership is distracted.  Distracted coaches can't lead a team to victory.  Congrats to the players for a good season.  It was much better than I ever expected.

Tonite's Eagles/Vikings game is a prime example of "why they play the games". Lookin forward to Sunday.

They probly wont even be showing the scores of the other games in the stadium so the players will stay focused on their game!!

Don't bet on it. I think someone in the Saints organization will know that Atlanta/Carolina score every step of the way. If the Falcons get up big and it's a blowout, you better believe Brees and the other significant starters are getting yanked out of the game possibly as early as halftime. Payton might be dumb (play call that resulted in the fumble and a Bucs win) but he's not stupid to risk the health of his star players a week before the playoffs.
