I like our chances, but I'm staying grounded here. Ambushing a Giants team that had completely overlooked us and beating a Lions team at home that hasn't won a road game since 2007 doesn't exactly make us the hottest team in the league. We are improving and that's encouraging, but the Saints are no pushover and are once again looking like the team that won the Super Bowl last year.
This time around we are without our starting QB and we still don't run the ball effectively. Not to mention that our defense has made the likes of Ely Manning and Shaun Hill look like Dan Marino in the stats category. We've survived so far, but an elite team with an elite QB (Saints, Colts) will eat us alive if we play like that again.
One thing I CAN say that I couldn't a mere 3 weeks ago is that we'll compete. From there, the chips will fall where they may, but I'm not going to foolishly claim that victory is ours. Not this week.
