The First True MUST WIN Game

hagan714 · 10-30-2017, 11:56 AM

First in division and neck and neck with both the Falcons and Panthers

Tampa is in the basement and heading into the Dome with their backs against the wall and 3 games back already.

Bang the Bucs and drop them back to 4 games and get a 2-0 division record is huge. Bucs will not climb out of this hole. Expect them to play all out. They know the season is on the line Sunday.

Falcons square off at the Kitties Litter Box in their first division game so this a no loss game for the saints. Some one will take 2nd place and set up the the final months for the division title run with the saints.

Putting the Falclowns a full game back is huge having stole a road win against the Kitties already. That means our destiny is in our own hands. If the kitties have plans in stealing the division they will have to do it in the Dome.

Keep banging away into the month of December and prep yourself for two huge games against the falcons.

With Philly one game up and Dallas and Seattle one game back, they're all gonna be must wins...

We should be discussing both of those topics every season, yes?

Fortunately after 7 games this season, it isn't idle chit chat.

BTW Hagan, I believe the game against the KittyKats in September was the first true MUST WIN game. An 0-3 start chasing a then undefeated Panthers would have been devastating to the season.

Every division game is critical of course. But if the Saints are going to make a deep playoff run, then they need to continue to develop the cold blooded skill of putting wounded teams down.

Boy things have sure changed around here in the last few weeks.
Some here were getting ready to walk the plank, now were all up
drinking rum with the Captain.

Now comes one of the real tests for our boy Marshon. We needed a true #1 CB for two reasons: Julio Jones and Mike Evans.

You have to beat everyone to be the best.
