Bucs seem to match up well with Saints. Regardless of which way either team is going, these games are usually close.Personally, I'm a little bummed they flexed game til after Carolina game.

Off topic here, but I love your handle. Everyone is so fixated on offense in the modern NFL but football will never change and great defenses win championships no matter what.
Imo, offense gets you to playoffs, defense keeps you there.
Either way, it's a serious love/hate thing for us.If we beat the saints and screw their season, its beautiful, but it makes us lose pick rank and have to keep schiano.If we lose, schiano probably goes and we'll have a higher pick and a new staff and hc.
i really think Schiano's fate is sealed already, either way staying or leaving. i don't think this game will have much bearing on it and it shouldn't. while the team is playing hard for him they are struggling and at times look like they are regressing, that should be the deciding factor.
Couldn't agree more. I said the same thing in another thread. The decision has been made. Not sure why but I have a feeling that Schiano won't be getting fired.
Like I said in the OP I think Schianos fate is already decided regardless of what happens on Sunday. I've already voiced my opinion that he stays. Do I want that? Not necessarily but I think that's what is going to happen. I also think we can get a great player that we need with a top 9 pick
I think we need to pick in the top 4 or else we are going to miss the elite players. Jake MatthewsClowneyBridgewaterBortlesIf we miss out on one of these guys we will be in a bad place choosing right after. I would seriously consider Eric Ebron as the next best player on the board.
Ok op I call you crazy. Crazy. Ha I just don't see us beating the saints in the first half it will be close maybe 17-10 something like that. The second half we will get out coached and the d will be tired from the offense going 3 n out practically every drive. And I hate picking against us I really do. I just see more of the same I'm tired of expecting different results..
We played the saints real close earlier this year and I don't think they are a much different team. We have a healthy Revis, Barron should be back, and I'm looking for clay born or gholston to have a big game against armstead the rookie OT. The saints have struggled against the pass rush and I think we exploit that. Look for our defense to have a huge game and our offense to do just enough against a saints D that has had a surprisingly good season with Rob Ryan. Just my 2 cents, maybe it's a pipe dream. I don't expect the outcome of the game to have much effect on whether GS stays or goes tho.Merry Christmas and go bucs
Crazy, you are. You can't roll up into the Superdome with the worst offense in the league and expect to win.
You've got great odds. 7 - 1. If you really like this match up, $30 to win over $200 is pretty fresh. When you combine the way our offense has played lately with how dominant NO has been at home, I am not feeling it. This is a really tough week to handicap because every game is a divisional game.

CRAZY 49-3 Saints
They have ZERO chance of beating Drew Brees in a must win, plus waht makes you think our dumb ass coaching staff could scheme up anything to beat them, they were overly confident the first game and it was at home in the heat.
Zero? Do you watch the NFL? Hell the falcons played the 49ers damn well in their own park on prime time.
Also, saints have lost three of their last four
In professional sports, there's always a chance for the underdog.I would however be shocked if the Saints lost a game that they've got to have.
I agree, but they had to win that game against the rams. Had to win last weekend in Carolina. They blew the nfc south title, I'mNot so sure they don't blow this game.
With the way atlanta and saints have been playing, if we had any kind of coach worthwhile we would be fighting with the panthers for the division.We're going to get a very pissed off saints team, and we have our rookie qb, magnificent line and backup rb's to be competitive?Isn't happening unless brees gets hurt. And even then we can still lose to a backup, as we have before.
