Re: Saints to face Eagles in NFC Divisional game

All this Iggles whining about us running up the score during the last game is a bunch of crybaby BS. We scored our last touchdown in the BEGINNING of the 4th quarter, and our last FG 5 minutes into the the 4th qtr. Jenkins & Peters are showing their feminine side.

Absolutely agree, Payton has learnt the tough way to keep the gas pedal down.

I hope this 2 weeks off has given them time to get back to midseason form.

Re: Saints to face Eagles in NFC Divisional game

every team and matchup is different but this is my point. Does anyone think their offense is anywhere close to the Pittsburgh offense? Do they have anywhere nearthat tandem of rec? They put up 28. Do you think the Eagles are going to do that? Does anyone think they can keep our offense under 30?

The only way we lose this game is if their dline dominates our oline.

That's how Dallas did it, and I don't see the Eagles bringing that kind of domination up front to the contest.

exactly, and they have two really athletic lb's that were able to put in really good work against AK. The Eagles don't have that..

But that is the only way. It has been 9 weeks since armistead was originally injured. He came back against Pitt and then was reinjured. Not sure if that made it regress or meant he wasnt ready. Wil be 3 weeks since then, hope it is fully healed now.

Bushrod should be a go, 5 weeks should heal a hammy

At this point, I'll settle for a 80% Armstead. He's so quick out of the screens & runs. A true catalyst on that line. I just don't know many (if any) other left tackles as quick and powerful as he is.

IMO TA is the most important player (see Dallas game) on offense not named Drew Brees. Hope he can gut it out on Sunday.

absolutely! Bushrod isn't exciting, but is stable. Armstead is next level.
