I’m not sleeping on them and neither will the team. I don’t think they have won on the road all year. Maybe one.

Winn/Loss could effect seeding I think

This game worries me. How badly do the stripes/godell want the Jets to win?

Great, let's motivate the Jets as much as we can, ffs.

The Jets defense is very similar to the Falcons. Especially the LBers who are fast and play sideline to sideline. They rank a little higher. Both run a 4-3. They alow 8 more Yards rushing. Pretty close anyway. It will be good for the Saints to face similar defenses 3 weeks in a row.
I can’t help but look ahead to the Falcons game. The team won’t but I sure as hell am. I’m still pissed as hell.

We need to run the ball and limit the amount of opportunities Brees has to **** up and throw a boneheaded pick.

OH GOD NOOO! LOL

Seriously, though, the league wants the next game with the falcons to be hyped, so both teams will win until that game. Unless of course, they just want to punish New Orleans some more...

Ok so we hope for the best.

I am afraid that we will dominate in this game and play Atlanta with a slightly smaller chip on our shoulders. We need to keep a strong hold of this anger after our recent loss in a close game.

Wilkerson has been left in NY.
Coaches decision not to play him.

More good news

Sounds like Mo mailed it in on the season. One less pass rusher to deal with.

BUT for either of those games we lost when we were 14 point favorites... Had we just lost to the FailClowns. on national tv??

I think this team wants to take names & kick ass & will do so!

Y’all act like that’s all Brees ever does.
He had a tendency to force it some in the past but that was because he knew he would get 0 help on defense and the only hope of winning was to score on every possession. Besides last week he’s been pretty good about it. Hopefully he’s learned he doesn’t have to risk it anymore because he finally had help.
I’m as critical of Brees as anyone but there was plenty blame to go around.
Much of it had nothing to do with any of our players.
I wouldn’t trust the defense in OT anyway. They were done. The way players we’re getting injured every snap I would have wanted to get it over with too.

I guarantee we would have lost another player in OT

He’s never not had a tendency to force it. It’s just easier to do it when you aren’t 40.

Who says we were going to OT? He just needed to throw to a different player and away from Jones.
