Before the SeaCawks, we need to take care of the FAILCLOWNS!

Exactly! One game at a time. Seahags have a bye next week so I DGAF about them until Friday.

The Hags are getting both starting O-linemen back
Percey Harvin is back and looks good
They have 2 weeks to prepare for us.
They look to have come out of their offensive slump this past weekend.
They suffered zero injuries in the Viking game.


Everything points to a Seattle win, which is why I'm absolutely positive we beat them in their own back yard and probably beat them soundly.

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.

Lets get by Atlanta first and see where we are when that game comes up. Injuries on either or both sides could change all of this.

Ooops, sorry. I'll put my pads on and get back to practice.

This was a great win by the Saints against the 49ers.

But the way it played out is not how we are going to win a road game vs Seattle.

We cannot shoot ourselves in the foot with turnovers. We are not going to win a game in Seattle with a -2 turnover margin.

Teams that have a -2 turnover margin lose nearly 82 % of the time since 2008. We were very fortunate to beat the 49ers. Shows how very talented we are on both offense and defense.

We will beat the Seahawks if we come away with a 0 in our turnover column. Bottom line. That interception thrown by Brees vs the 49ers has to be a pass he throws away vs Seattle. Punt the ball on 4th and pin them back. He will have to be extra careful with the ball. We must come to grips with the fact that we're not going to score 31+ points every game and that it's ok to let the defense help you win the game. So stop putting them in bad situations like we did all game long vs San Fran (the 4th down attempt at our 40 was another example, punt and pin them deep, they aren't moving the ball on you at all). It's situational football, and we did not execute that type of game plan very well this past Sunday and it almost cost us.

We must continue to be more balanced with the running game. We were successful vs San Francisco running the ball, yet we passed 44 times vs only 22 runs. We need more balance than that.

Seattle's weakness is run defense. I would like to see 35 passes and 35 runs, frankly.

Let's go into Atlanta and continue to get Ingram some confidence. Something tells me we are going to need him vs Seattle.

The likelihood is another 23-20 score. Turnovers will decide if we are the ones with 23 or 20.

I didn't mean it that way; but, good your covering Douglas Thrs night.

In regards to Seattle, 10 days is essentially a bye week. Remember what we did after the last bye having time to rest, heal, and plan?

After watching 10 games this season I no longer care who the opponent is or what their injuries look like.

All that determines the outcome of our games is which Saints team shows up. No team is better on both sides of the ball.

I like the fact that we play Cantlanta thursday then play the seadonkeys on monday...that gives us ten days to prepare. Its not exactly two weeks, but its better than one.

Cantlanta. Love it, first time I've heard it. Totally stealing it...
