They are terrified of the shredding they may get.

How are the Cardinals going to contain Jimmy Graham?

I just hope that Brees recognizes the mismatches and gets the ball to the right man. 4 int's is not going to get the job done. We had the same situation a few years back and threw up all over ourselves.

Cardinals have one of the higher pass completions on Defense with 51 of 74 attempts. Rated at #21 in pass 68.9% of passes have been caught.
Im not to worried about passing against them, and think we have to pass all day to win.

Problem is Arizona is one of the best Run defenses in the NFL, Ranked #2. Allowing 0 TD's, 116 yards rushing on 44 attemps, 2.6 Y/A, and 58 yards per a game. Bucs were Ranked #11, and we could not make much of a dent.

This is definatly a team you want to test your run game against, but not a team you should devote 25-40 plays to, on offense, running as a game plan.
I fear if SP forces the run in this game it will cost the team 3rd downs, and keep the cardinals close enouph to win it.

Ari may be ranked high on run but Bush went off on them in a Sproles type of duty. I think we can do well running if we run off the pass and not the other way around like we've tried to do. Adding in the screens and etc..

yeah true RB 3 for 44 yards recieving. Sproles can do that. Hope he doesnt do the 1 fumble and 9 for 25 yards rushing that RB had, lol.
Plus you consider the Lions had a pick 6 for 7pts and only made 14pts on offense, Id say that defense is pretty solid in the box.

Are we going to have to bring Shanle back to fill a defense?

Absolutely, Scott can hold the edge with his speed.

Seriously, I have a feeling our offense will get going this week. I have a feeling that the O-line probably had their ass chewed after last week. This is the week our O gets going, but every game is tough and this one will be too. Just get the W!

That's great and all, but they're not comparing their defense to that of the Bucs, are they? Also there is one very important tidbit they're clearly forgetting- rain soaked windy field outdoors on the road. We are at home and in the dome today, right? I think that helps us as well.

He definitely made some bad decisions last game, but I am not so sure the Oline has helped the matter. Get the frigan guy some blocking and give him some time and I think you'll see a different result. He's about to get on a roll. I hope it starts today
