OFFENSE:

Protect Drew Brees

Limit 3 & outs / convert more 3rd downs

DEFENSE:

Pressuring Cassel is not enough. RB must be held < 100yds

Limit 20+ yard plays to no more than two

Re: Expectations for today's game
 

Offense: Consitency, no turnovers, less penalties, fewer drops, balanced attack (not run/pass ratio per say, but run/pass success).

Defense: Less confusion, more pressure from the front 4, better LB play especially in coverage, play faster and more fired up! Knock somebody the **** out!

I'm not expecting the '99 Ravens, but I would like to see some major improvement.

Re: Expectations for today's game
 

It would be nice to see a little bit of the ravens in our defense

I knew the ravens were good but i found out today that since 2000 they have never finished lower than 5th in Run D.

If we could even mimic some of that success we would be great on D

The ravens have had a great D for literally 12 years, we can't get one for 1 year

Re: Expectations for today's game
 

I realize its a lesser team, however the defense needs a win and its a mental thing that this defense scheme can win games, and build om from there.

Re: Expectations for today's game
 

I expect us to look just like we did playing the winless rams last year without our coach. L 35-10

Re: Expectations for today's game
 

I expect people to do their jobs. On Defense--contain Charles to a degree, secondary keeping everything in front of them. Offense, steady dose of PT, believe it or not, thats when we are at our best. Drew needs to be smarter. some of his reads were questionable. I'm confident we'll re-group, 37-24 if we don't it's gonna be a long, long season and I'll be forced to drink even more than I do now.

Re: Expectations for today's game
 

I have new expectations for this team. I EXPECT a pretty high pick in the draft and I EXPECT him to be a bust like the other first-rounders.
