Let them focus on Peterson and Brees will light them up like the sky on the 4th of July.

Not if fan of this talk from Peterson. Slightly out of contex? Probably. But why give them bulletin board material?

I like the idea of finishing these guys off in the 4th quarter with a 10 play 10 minute drive...

Just hammering away with the run game with Peterson...

Re: Adrian Peterson: I want to stick it to the*Vikings

I think a lot of people are really underestimating the challenge the Vikings are going to be.

It's definitely not going to be a cake-walk facing that defense, which might have actually improved since last season.

Their offense will be better as well with Cook running the ball and actually an OC running the show, who'll play to the strenghts of the players.

I hope the Saints are going to win, but it's not going to be a blow-out.

Well, we're in the minority about our chances on Monday night because the rest of the football world likes the Vikes...

Kenny Vaccaro better not get on back on the plane if he lets Sam Bradford embarrass him the way he did Roman Harper...

Sam Bradford runs Roman Harper Down - YouTube
While I know the following stats are preseason stats, the Viqueens allowed an average of 22.75 points per game, the Saints 10.25 points per game, not factoring in actual points given up by the defense. If we did the latter, our stats would be even better. If we were to juxtapose the very same preseason stats from the last few years, we would see a difference. It would appear we are remarkably improved on defense, any way you slice it. It'll be fun to see just how much in the next few games.
