Saints have 0% chance because they are down 3 defensive starters (DT ellis,CB Porter and CB Greer)and 1 pro bowl left tackle.

How are you supposed to beat New England with a pair of backup CBs???

McKenzie returns to Saints, who need CB depth after injuries

Associated Press

METAIRIE, La. -- The New Orleans Saints brought back Mike McKenzie to replace cornerback Leigh Torrence, who will miss the rest of the season with a shoulder injury.
The Saints placed Torrence on injured reserve late Monday.

McKenzie, an 11-year NFL veteran, was released by the Saints during the offseason following injuries to each knee in consecutive seasons. But the Saints have been short on cornerbacks because of injuries to Torrence, Tracy Porter, Jabari Greer and Randall Gay.
Before a fracture to his right kneecap last November, McKenzie started 62 of 63 games, with 225 tackles, 58 passes defended, 12 interceptions and one forced fumble.
No details on the deal with McKenzie were immediately announced Monday.

IF the Saints win Monday night, watch out.
I personally would rather this monkey off their backs....lose a game already and forget all about it and focus on the rest of the season and playoffs!!

I would love to see a healthy Saints and healthy Indy team play for all the marbles!!!:director:

If the Saints win this week it is all over in my opinion. Forget about it.. Undefeated regular season.. Only chance at a loss is if the Vikes meet them in the playoffs..

I disagree. IMO Minn has more of a chance at 15-1 than Saints do at 16-0. I expect Saints to lose one of the next 2 weeks, and they can easily lose @ atlanta or vs. Dallas...

As a lifelong resident and fan, I could not care less if they are undefeated. I am far concerned about what happens in January and beyond...

colts will have to play their best at Jax if they want to continue their streak

on the other hand if Saints can handle this week against Pats they may have a chance

real tuff stretch for both..

truth be known..

it is all about home field AFC/ NFC Champ game..

huge this year..


one thing I do think will ring true in the coming weeks..

NFC..

Minn. and N.O. both know the sting of coming up short...we will get theIR best effort.

these clubs can taste a SUPER BOWL

I think the Saints lose at least 2 regular season games. @ Atlanta vs. NE, @ Carolina vs. Dallas... they'll go 2-2 if not worse, especially with their injuries.

Colts might lose this weekend, but could easily go undefeated if they win. Jacksonville might be tough & maybe the Titans... but who else:shrug:

THE ONLY OTHER GAME THE COLTS COULD LOSE IS AT JACKSONVILLE SUNDAY NIGHT. OTHER THAN THAT IF THEY DO LOSE A GAME IT WILL BE ONE THAT DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE THEY WILL HAVE THE AFC ALL LOCKED UP WITH HOMEFIELD ADVANTAGE.

the Jacksonville game is a thursday night game.

Also i see the colts becoming way more conservative once they clinch home field. IMO they wont care much about going undefeated but thats just me
