Re: Could the Saints realtively early bye week be a problem?

Lets look at the history

The Saints have gone 5-0 in the last five regular season games following their bye week.

I like it. I believe the Lions are being over looked this year and we go to Detroit to continue the streak. Which could turn into The Biggest Tests for this LB and secondary unit of the season.

I like the way this game is shaping up!

This could be huge for the rest of the season in confidence and getting their heads screwed on straight with an eye on the playoffs.

Breakout the Litmus Paper baby.

Matthew Stafford
Reggie Bush
Calvin Johnson
Brandon Pettigrew
Golden Tate

And that Lions front 4.

this will not be a shabby game

Lets not forget new Head coach Jim Caldwell

After the Packers at Home and the Panthers Road Game to break up that 4-day week would have been ideal, but it is what it is...
That would not happen no matter what. No one has gotten a bye week before and after the week of a TNF game.

And Eric Ebron is the new starting tightend over Pettigrew. Howeverr if I had to choose a game to lose between them and the bears, its them. I think this season the three teams that were the big 3 before SF and Seattle--us, packers, giants--take back the NFC.

We have nine days rest after playing the panthers also, however. So technically that is sort of a bye.

Did an early bye hurt the Saints in 2009??

but to beat the Lions early in the season should be huge. Lions always start fast and disappear down the stretch.
