Gotta somehow keep Carr clean.

I hope the Saints keep a FB or TE next to Carr for pass plays to try to keep him upright.

Well this game will decide a couple of questions.

Are the Saints really that good?
Are the Panthers really that bad?
I suspect we're somewhere in the middle.

If we win, I feel we could be a great team this year
If we lose a close one, I'd say we're still a very good team
If we get blown out, then we're probably just an also ran hovering around .500 all year.

We'll damn sure find out if our O-line has improved or not.

The whole idea is to WIN AND BE A GREAT TEAM THIS YEAR.
Been too many years since 2010 with us being in the other categories.
This coming game will be telling.

Saints will need to score quickly.

Dowdle & Zeke aren’t going to “wow” you running the ball.

Zimmer vs Carr … good matchup.

We beat Dallas and Philly and I’m riding with Edna Carr until the wheels fall off.

It’s a big game but there is lots of season left. Most teams will look a lot different in week 17 than they will in week 2.

Is this one of the guys that normally screws us? Oh wait, what am I saying? He’s a referee; they all screw us!
