Jets Defense.

Frankly we need to get Reggie the hell off the field on punt returns. He just does not have a returner's instincts until the ball is actually in his hands. He has brutal ball security, cannot seem to feel the pressure of the coverage and does not know when to get the hell out of there. Too many times he comes very close to touching a bouncing ball. He scares me and I cringe everytime they punt to us. Put someone back there who knows how to run forward, when to fair catch, and how to simply put a ball away and not dangle it like he just caught a fish.

I think this why he should be returning kicks, not punts. See the whole field, set up his blocks, one move and go.

Forget the injury argument: PR's are more more vulnerable

It is because of games like these, that it is good that the Saints defense is better. The Saints offense might not score alot of point, but hopefully the Jets' offense won't either.

QFT

Our defense is the key in this game. There isn't a defense out there that can totally shut our offense down, but there a few that can slow it to "pedestrian". Our defense will be the deciding factor in those games - and this is one of them.

I think I am one of the few who isn't drinking the Kool-aid on the Jets D. They are good, but not dominating.

I know a lot of guys here don't put a lot of stock in point spreads, but there is some logic/science/math behind them. The Vegas over/under is 46, the highest total in the NFL this week. We will see some points on Sunday.

Saints 34-21.

Thanks Mike.....sometimes i wonder if they watch the games...lol...i see this as a tough battle..but very winnable....I know Drew is preparing well and if our run game keeps it up.....well we could be 4 and 0...

I think this says it best...and will lead to a good day from Brees and the running game. I couldn't help but notice while watching the MN game that when Romo would come to the sideline after an offensive series, when reviewing the "pics" from that series...he would watch the game and then glance at the "pics"...really not giving his full attention. Now watch Brees after an offensive series, it doesn't matter if they scored a TD or went 3 and out, he intensely reviews the "pics" from the series before and I'm sure he will be studying "miles" of "film" on the jets defense before the game. Preparation and attention to details is the key and IMHO, Brees is one of the best at doing this. Because of his "prep" and attention to detail as well as playing at the dome, I think Brees will have a "good" (not pedestrian) day! Add to this a good running game and a much improved defense... I'm thinking 4 - 0
