Offense on our side has to execute or we are in trouble.
We need to cheap shot Cam early and often to rattle him. A courple of nice sacks early can put him in scared baby pout mode. I’ll take a penalty or two against us in our house.
Maybe not cheap but get to him. Penetration is key here and we can come out with a win.
This is a playoff game and a good team will miss the wildcard. We have to win this one and move to Atlanta with a healthy Lattimore.
We have been lucky in every game except the Bills and Dolphins who suck. Played 3 playoff teams with franchise QBs out or very banged up.
Cam will run like his career is s on the line.

Tell me how we got lucky in the Redskins game, playing without our top cb for most of the game and without klein.

And how did we get lucky in the 1st carolina game?

I dont think you win 8 games in a row in the nfl being lucky.

this is playoff football without a doubt.

How about the Giants winning it all as a wild card. That would be fun. Rather have home field advantage. Cam couldn’t run partly because of injury and we had Okafor. Him being out is going to hurt. I think we take it. I want to see him pout so bad. We have to hit on all cylinders. We play like the last 2 weeks and we are in trouble.
Hit cam early and often. Cheap shots, a few penalties, I don’t care. Just get him rattled early.
That’s the key. Even if he makes the pass if we get a couple of hits in when he first releases the ball we win.

I hate to say it. But, I do think this is must win territory. A loss means our chance of winning the division go to 26%. Although, making the playoffs is still at 70% without all other data on wins/losses tomorrow.

How dare you mess up a "What If" post with FACTS!!! LOL

The Saints didn't "EARN" it. The Vikings gave it to them. Vikings had to win against the Bears to secure home field and they LOST giving it to the Saints.

Just win the f-en game already. No f-en exuces, execute, make plays, score points and win the f-en game.

Hmmkay...?

Can't argue with that..

"Unnerving" to me, as a home team fan, and yes, the amount of noise that opposing teams' fan can make in our Dome, just means that the home field advantage is not as strong in New Orleans as some would be led to believe. That was the point of my original comment.

Believe it or don't. Matters not. But you certainly need things laid out for you simply, in a manner that you can understand. You're welcome.
