it is a must win just for our teams mental state the rest of the season. As young as we are we need to turn this around.

Why be scared for Brees? The Falcons have the worst pass rush in the entire NFL. They can't get pressure on anyone.

Bet your ass; they'll be all-out blitzing A LOT! Brees could have a field day with the screens...

no, it really isn't because i am talking about Armistead not being in the limeup. If we haven't run the ball with him in there what gives you confidence we will run it without him in there? We could, but I don't have confidence in that

Um; most of the time the runs go up the middle behind the guards/center... Armstead has always been better at pass blocking than run blocking...

That's my biggest fear, if we start tanking the season he will just load IR with tons of players and manage to keep his job at the end of 3 disastrous seasons.

The day the Saints ever start tanking ... it will NEVER happen. New Orleans NEVER gives up.

Armistead is a really good run blocker, he is athletic and can move out in space. Either way, I don't think you, I, or anyone is going to come on here and start saying that we are in better shape offensively without Armistead. I sure hope you're not trying to say that we will run the ball better with Armistead out
