So Keandre Miller is dealing with a hamstring issue and coach isn’t so
certain he will be ready vs Titans in the season opener.

And remember he had a “knee” concern earlier. Tough way to start.

Especially with no AK for the next 3 weeks.

Re: Week One: Titans @ Saints

Many of the talking heads are predicting the Titans will win the AFC South this year. The defense is strong especially the front seven.
They have talent on offense with arguably the best RB in the league and one of the best WR's in DeAndre Hopkins, though both are aging.

Listen to uncle Iceshack. This won't be easy for the Saints so prepare for a struggle. Expecting an easy Saints win here is folly.

Re: Week One: Titans @ Saints

I have a feeling we're going to miss Kaden Elliss this game. Playing against run oriented teams, we need to play more 7 man fronts with a true 3rd linebacker instead of an undersized nickel/safety.

We're probably going to have to rely on our offense putting up some numbers. If we can put up 27 points, we may be able to take it.

Re: Week One: Titans @ Saints

Their QBs are serviceable but not upper tier. The reality is that the NFL is not a league of elite teams and lesser teams. All games no matter what we think are typically close anyway. That's what RG and the owners really want. Even last year for us, we could've won a few more games had the special teams come through. At the end of the day the Saints are a better team that last year, IMHO. The Titans are too, probably. I think we have a bit of an advantage as they have no idea what the D Carr iteration of this offense will unearth, especially with a healthy MT, a better overall WR/TE corps really. The same old precept holds true, the team that commits the least number of mistakes will probably come out on top.

Hadn't seen it mentioned anywhere but blockzilla (Trequan Smith) had surgery last month & is expected to be out several weeks.
