Scott, I know that you are a Cowboys fan, living in Seattle...and I am a Saints fan also living in Washington , but I cannot tell if you bet against Seattle and picked them anyway, or if you just felt like whomever you did bet on was going to cost you a grand
I gave up betting several years ago...but if Arizona plays New Orleans I wouldn't bet on a third string QB who joined the team this week (Lindley?) to beat the Saints.
(Or the Falcons for that matter, but maybe Carolina who I think stinks)
So if the Saints are "good", and get in...they can win a first round game reasonably enough.
