Re: Breaking Down Saints Remaining Schedule
Brian Baldinger called The FailClowns a mess, and the Bucs a 'hot mess'. Also, said that Revis Island is not open. LOL.

Re: Breaking Down Saints Remaining Schedule
Too many things can change from week to week. I can't look past this week.

What this game boils down to is can the Seahawks stop our offense? Their defense is very comparable to ours in regards to points allowed with just over 1/2 a point separating them. Our defense is better in both 3rd and 4th down percentages.. Their defense has also given up 140+ more yards in penalties than ours. We also have them in ToP. Wilson rarely has over 30 passing attempts and even then, better Defenses (Colts/49ers/Texans) have kept his Comp% down around 50%. Seattles offense is lopsided and if we stop Lynch... They are irrelevant. At worst or best depending on how you look it is its a fairly even match up with the exception that they run better and we pass better. |

Re: Breaking Down Saints Remaining Schedule
we might get some help from SF and our buddies in ATL, but it really will come down to us winning in SEA. Only other real hope is Giants finally man up and play for pride on 12/15

Those 9 sacks were against the Dolphins and Bengals who normally AVR 3 sacks per game. The Dolphins sacked Drew twice.. with our suspect o-line. Their Defense is allowing 25.4 points/game and 20 yards shy of allowing 400 yards/game. The Bills are coming to the dome... This has massacre written all over it. That being said, beyond the stats I have a deep seeded hatred for the Buffalo Bills that goes back 20+ years... See my Platoon Sergeant when I was stationed at Ft. Polk was a huge Bills fan and when they lost we got smoked every Monday morning. Years later SSG Jackson was cutting his lawn and fell under his mower losing his foot. Karma can be quite the wicked woman. The Bills just can not keep up. |

Re: Breaking Down Saints Remaining Schedule
I'm just figuring on losing to the Seahawks. If we win great but anybody who discounts how good they are, especially in Seattle, is kidding themselves.
Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves, we got off to a great start but we're not head and shoulders above the competition. We have real issues on the OL and at WR. We can beat anybody on the schedule but none of our games is a gimme. We're going to need smart coaching and disciplined play as well as some luck with injuries. HFA would be a remarkable achievement. We've seen Brees and Payton do remarkable things in the past though so it's definitely a possibility. |
