Re: On To The Patriots
The Pats secondary had a hard time with Tyreek Hill's speed. I hope Payton figures out a way to utilize Ginn and Lewis at the same time. They'll either be in single coverage and one of them should be open often, or they'll have either Thomas and Fleener covered by a single linebacker. Of course all that hinges on the Oline giving enough time for the play to develop.
Use the pass to open up the run like they've been doing for years rather than the other way around like they tried to do in Minnesota. |

ESPECIALLY on the Goal Line, where we get stuffed every time. We're the only team in football, where goal-to-go from the 1 is a passing down. ![]()
We cant run. We dont run. We shouldnt try. Stop pretending we can run. Run only when its a surprise. Lets call one running play, just for the novelty, and we can have the River Parish Disposal Kicking Tee Retriever of the Week run it. It wouldnt be any more masturbatory than when we try to run on the goal line. I would trade both Peterson AND Ingram for the best O-linemen we could get, and use Kamara & Travaris Cadet. We'd be better off. I'm just being real. -- All that said, its amusing that we are even talking about this game, as if having some strategy or plan will avoid the inevitable spanking we are about to receive. (We could have AP bring out the switch.) So lets award ourselves $5 gift certificates from Popeyes just for being such little super troopers. Bless our heart. Mikey The Greek (or Jimmy the Mexican, whichever) says, Angry Patriots 56, Puny Saints 6. (we can kick more FGS inside the 10) I dont even see a point in playing Drew until we get Armstead & Strief back. In fact, lets sit Michael Thomas, Kamara, and anyone worth their jock on D, if we have any. And hope nobody else comes down with some rare medical condition, or drunk driving, or exzema, or double jointed psoriaosis etc etc blah blah. |

Re: On To The Patriots
Better match up for the Saints in the dome.
Did anyone notice Cam occasionally dropped back in coverage on Monday night? I didn't like that look at all. We don't have enough proven play-makers on defense to try those exotic looks. It didn't confuse Sam so it's definitely isn't going to confuse Brady on Sunday. Stick to the basics coach Dennis. The basics. |

Different players, nearly the same outcome. We are a dumb team, especially on D. |

Re: On To The Patriots
That was 2015. I was there. The previous week we beat the Giants in a ridiculously entertaining but heart-stopping game, and I was at the endzone where that farcical play took place. We actually had the interception until the collision. I was stunned.
