The Road to 13-3 Starts Here

In less than one hour, the Saints march back into the Dome with their minds on one mission: Win a freakin' game!! They've had two weeks to find themselves, figure out this "invasion of the body snatchers" phenomenon on offense, and come to grips with the fact that people are jumping off their bandwagon faster than the wait staff on the Titanic.
The Saints realize that a loss today is pretty much the equivalent of launching their postseason dreams into a black hole...never to be seen again. No team has started 0-4 and still made the playoffs since the NFL went to a 12-team playoff system in 1990. Hell, 0-3 is long shot enough!
The good news is, they face another team in disarray, the Carolina Panthers. Not only are the Panthers without their starting QB, but we hear there's a catfight brewing among teammates in the locker room. After last week's loss at home to the Bucs, Panthers defensive tackle Kris Jenkins accused his teammates of lacking heart. The Panthers went on to hold a players-only meeting to discuss "dissatisfaction" in the locker room. (ME-OW!)
What better team than the Saints to take advantage of this "Ya-Ya Sisterhood" moment going on with their division rival. While the Panthers' defensive line holds each other singing "We Are Family", Drew Brees can get his groove back and get some time in the pocket to find those many wide open receivers. It's the purr-fect plan!

While our game predictions the past few weeks have been ridiculously off, we'll give it yet another go.
Final Score: Saints 20 Panthers 14
