Re: Saints VS Cardinals
I'm going out on a limb here and predict that the Saints team you've been seeing for the last 6 games of the season is NOT what you'll see in the playoffs. Early mistakes allowed the Cards to jump out in front of the Pack, and the Pack had no answer.
The SAINTS on the other hand are basically coming out of the chute new in the eyes of many. All the pieces are back in place from the injury (rest) carousel and I believe we're goign to shock the world by dominant play, much like we saw from this team early in the season. If Drew is on point, everything will go our way! Just 3 more wins and Lombardi comes marchin' down Bourbon St.!!! |

It is all about opinions and I respect your opinion. BTW - guess which team is NOT getting turnovers if as you say the Cards are scoring on every drive? I think we have a chance because I do instinctively, because I want, and because over the regular season:

Re: Saints VS Cardinals
I am worried about any team that we play. It has more to do with what we do, or not do, than it has to do with the other team. We are sometimes like Barney with a bullet. None of what I'm reading here will turn into a tackle or a catch on Saturday afternoon. Getting it done in the moment is all that will count. I'm hoping we find our mojo and put these teams away like champions.

Re: Saints VS Cardinals
Palmer started ok but failed to adjust to the Jets' schemes after the 2nd drive (58 rating)
Brady sucked early and often (48 rating) You should read what they're saying about McNucklehead up here in Philly (68 rating) Rogers' weak start dug them too deep a hole (121 rating, but 3 team turnovers in 1st 3 possessions.) QB and O-line will determine the outcome of the Saints game. It doesn't look like defensive secondary is going to make much difference. Being 100% ready to play seems to be the big story. If you weren't, you lost. If their O-line doesn't play as well this weekend, we have a good chance. Otherwise, this will go down to whomever has the ball last. |

Philly will be calling for McNuggethugger's head. Too bad Andy Reid wants to have his babies and he'll never get rid of him.

Re: Saints VS Cardinals
darstep mentioned tackling. I think that this is going to be the most critical aspect this weekend on defense, while on offense we must give full time help to the LT. Our tackling has become horrendous.....I truly believe that McKenzie has influenced the tackling with his famous no wrap tackle. jmo
If we can get back to basics we'll do well against Arizona. |

I have seen better tackling at a JV Highschool ball in Abbeville. I have seen better wrapping in strip clubs......For a lot less money.... |
