Well, I have season tickets this year, so I hope <b>Jimmy4</b> is incorrect in 6-10. Looked at his predictions, though, and hear are my thoughts:

1) No way they lose to the Colts in the Dome this year.

2) The Panthers are up-and-coming, but how can anyone predict their competitiveness until the QB situation is settled? Also, both games are before the halfway mark, which won't allow Delhomme, were he to start, enough time to settle into things. If Weinke starts, enough said.

3) Saints will not lose at home against the Gaints or Dallas. One, has a drunk for QB, the other, would consider that an improvement. Don't put too much stock in Parcells' ability, especially given the dearth of talent he's facing in the Bid D.

4) Assuming that schedule is correct, how in the hell did the Saints get the Colts in New Orleans two years in a row? Also, how's the Redskins get the Saints at home two years in a row? I know there aren't college-type "home-n-away" agreements in the pros, but this is a little strange.

5) Saints will win two BIG road games against last year's playoff teams. Not sure who it will be, but you can't deny the Saints offense, especially on the road.

Now I've branded myself the typical Saints fan, but I admit there's a dimishing amount of logic when the subject is the Saints, so be warned.
