I would say 12-4 just to get a wild card this year. To many good teams facing really bad teams. 

11-5 has missed the playoffs twice in NFL history.  11-5 will get us in barring something unforeseen.

tbh, not to knock anyone, but a lot of the posts in this thread analyzing the current situation say things completely generic to the NFL at this point in the season. You could literally take some of this stuff and plug it in every single season at this time of year and at most you might have to shuffle some of the team names around. We're just too early in the season to really assess anything meaningful.

Total bs.  Our nfc record is awful and if we lose to the bucs again that will bite us in the ass trying to make the playoffs as a wild card

EDIT: we are 6-18 all-time in Atlanta.

Wins in 1997, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2013 and 2014.

That is terrible.  As bad as the falcons are this year nobody should be assuming we win there,  when we havent in 4+ years including 2015.

Lol our NFC record is 0-2 sure, but we've only played a third of our NFC games. There are 4 more left on the schedule. Just as importantly, most other teams we'll be vying for any wildcard spot with have probably played only a couple of their conference games too. A lot can happen between now and the end of the season. I'm not saying losing is good, just that making any kind of meaningful determination this early is fruitless, unless your determination is "well we're 0-5, probably not going to the playoffs." The kind of observations you can make at this point in the season could be made every year at this point. There's just a lot of football left to be played.

I wonder if there any idiot saints fans that don't want Brees back?

Probably because the Saints were having greater success with Brees than the Panthers were with Newton prior to both quarterbacks getting injured. After the Tampa game, the Panthers fan base was at a low point.

Ron letting Cam play hurt against the Bucs was one of his worst decisions since becoming HC. Everyone could see he was hurt, with a healthy Allen we beat them and are 4-2.

I’ve seen one post something of that sort and he was promptly eviscerated by logical Saints fans.
