Great Stat For Our Defense.

"...By the way, this year's Saints are just as good against the deep pass as they are when throwing the deep pass. Only two defenses allow a completion rate below 35 percent on deep passes: the Jets (24 percent) and the Saints (32 percent)."

Re: Great Stat For Our Defense.

Good stat. But I'd like to see the same stat for the teams that faced Brees, Bradey, Manning and Farve. Those numbers are scewed by the rooks and the scrubs - tonight we have niether. Our DB's are going to be tested by a QB that only needs 1/2 of a step. Bradey can make throws, like Brees, to create a step in coverage. We have to figure out a way to limit Bradey to 3-4 seconds, less is even better. If Brady has time to count sheep, it is going to be a long night, in the gutt and on the edges.

With our secondary banged up it's going to be tougher to stop Brady and company, but I believe Gregg Williams is the difference maker tonight.
