Look who's back!
Disagree with that assessment. Maybe that was the case last year but the Saints offense is different this year. Better options at WR and the TE is no longer a QB.

Would like to observe over the last 2 years that TE either started or played major snaps against the Clowns. The Saints are 3-0 in those games.

I'm not sure everyone realizes this is actually the first time JW2 is the Saints starting QB against the FailClowns.

Also I think the over/under for TH7 in the QB position tomorrow is about 2. I just don't think that Pete Carmichael is going to completely eliminate QB power and its options.

If the Falcons attempt to base their whole defense upon limiting Kamara they are going to get slashed by Thomas, Landry, and Olave at WR (all better than any the Saints had last season) and Taysom Hill at TE. Not to mention having to score themselves against arguably one of the top three defenses in the entire NFL.

That said, no one has been able to stop a healthy Kamara yet. Why would you feel that the Falcons could manage this all of the sudden?

The FailClowns will lose this weekend. It's merely a matter of by how many points! .

Well. I think I nailed that one.

Re: Week One - @ Failclowns

Speaking of QBs ... Marcus Mariota.

Saints have had trouble there over the years with mobile Qbs.

Gap discipline and lane assignment will be key.

Not sure Mariota has faced the healthy DL we fixing to throw at him.

This is true but just pointing it out.

Divisional games are very unpredictable and can go either way
