I don't know. They're no joke. I felt like we could cover for one of our corners, but for two? 'Bout to learn about our depth.

Having Vacarro and Klein back will be huge for us. Take a page from the Vikes last week ... roll the dice and blitz Goff. He's no Kirk Cousins. I'll never confuse the production of Okafor to Hendrickson but he's also good against the run.

As for as depth goes ... good thing we kept Kikaha

While I think we still win, and I agree they are super thin also..... our defense is far more dependent on good CB play than theirs is. We don't get a ton of pressure up front and one of the reasons our defense has done so well is that we've played blanket coverage.

Top three CB all out
No Okafor

Going to need to win a shoot out here.
Hopefully keep them to field goals
Control the clock when needed with run plays
No turnovers

No a defense to have to rely on the pass against. They rush well. Need to keep it close

The pass rush is going to have to come up big in this game. Let PJ man up, roll the safties to the other side, and to help with Gurley.

Go old school "Own the middle of the field"

Hammer them early and often. Makes no difference if they make the catch or not.

If a personal foul or two happens it is ok.

Gotta put fear into the WRs and get them to finch when catching the ball out of fear.

AA them.

May need Brees to win another one for us!

Don't expect these guys to be Lattimore, Crawley or Breaux...

But D*mn, they don't need to give up third and longs either...

It's gonna be a tough game. Front D Line is gonna have to pressure, pressure, pressure

Starting to look like a score-fest. So, bet the under. LOL
