Predict the score: Packers vs Saints on sunday the 17th of september 2006.

Gimme your prediction and why.

I will give my prediction later in the day when this thread gets going.

[jack's smirking revenge]

Saints 27
Pack 14

Reggie Bush looks like a madman, scoring thrice (2 by air, 1 by sea).

I'll go with that prediction since Bush is on several of my FF teams.

[ahaha]

Packers 27
Saints 17

The Packers get on track offensively with a big game by Green going against a suspect defense. Bush gets a few nice gains through the air, but the Saints running game is stuffed by a solid run defense led by A.J. Hawk.

I've got Bush in 1 FF league only but I'm in a dilemma; my # 1 RB is Tomlinson, 2 & 3 are R.Bush or A.Green. Tough call.

Saints 21 Packers 17

Yeah that is a tough one. Both should do well but Bush has the added bonus of being a large part of the Saints passing game.

I'm just hoping the Saints decide not to give us payback for last year's whooping we gave them.

Packers - 35
Saints - 24

Predict the score of predict if the Packers WILL score?

20 - 14 Packers - M3 Lets Favre throw early and often against, why against Mac!!

Let the koolaid flow freely.

Saints 20 Packers 17.

I do not expect a high scoring game and neither a blowout. Saints win because they're more settled on offense, defense and ST compared to the Packers. Rayner will get his first FG and he'll miss one too. Just a hunch. Brees will dink and dunk plus great one/two punch in Deuce & Bush. Packers will try to run all day and be somewhat successful. Saints win turnover battle 2-1 and that seals it. Packers passing game gets "sacked" by poor QB protection. The real reason for my prediction of a Packer loss is, as I indicated above, is that the team is still looking for an identity. Fact: in the last 15 years when a NFL team has been shot out, then 60% go out the next week as winners. Let's hope the fire from the Bears loss outweighs the inexperience of the Packer team. GO PACK GO

I hear ya, I think I'll wait till sunday...then I'll ask my 3 year old daughter who I should start

This Saints squad is much diff't than the club we beat so easily last year. A healthy Deuce and the additions of Brees and Bush make this club better on offense and ST.

I see our 2ndry get burned again a few times and probably a few plays that make you say, 'huh?'. Overall though, I think we'll do okay defensively.

Our PR coverage team needs to make plays and stop the long returns.

Packers need to feed Green again and return to a mix of short and deep routes. I see the Packers using less max protection schemes and get Franks and Jennings involved early.

This game will be close - I'm thinking one of two things happen. We choke again b/c we're not cohesive and lack chemistry - Saints 28 Packers 10.... OR we hold our own and improve Saints 17 Packers 14.

We're still a young team and could pull this out but we need a few things to go our way early.

Packers offense explodes for a 34-17 win.
