Yea I don’t like the way we match up against them. They are easily the most dangerous team. Home field would be big for us.
We have a healthy offensive line with Armstead and it’s doable. Otherwise it could be a long day for Brees.

I'm with you. I have them losing to the Colts on Sunday though.

A good D coordinator will take away their WR threat (Cooper), then it's all on Dak who has been notorious for taking sacks (leads the league w/48), fumbles & subsequent turnovers.

Observed and stands correct I tink

Chase Daniel would have not only blocked that punt but would have scored then complete a pass to himself for the 2 point conversion!!

I think the colts are going to split Dal/NYG. However, if you look right now giants are playing much better offense so maybe they pull out the win there instead.

No, we won the division this early in 2009.

K Major

It wouldn't surprise me at all to see the Cows lose to both but especially Indy on Sunday.

Going to be tough keeping the top seed. The schedule has not been kind to the Saints and very kind to the Rams. If the Saints finish in the 2 it would be nice if the Bears slipped into the other side of the bracket. They look a really good team on the rise in the next few years and the good work by Ryan Pace is really starting to show. Don't fear playing them as im not sure they can keep pace with the offense,even if there defense is as good as anything you have seen in a few years.

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

The Rams have been lucky with their schedule and being in a terrible division. The rest of the South has not been great this year but fully healthy they can all put up points and give anyone a game any week and the division games are often brutal. The Rams got 4 games against the 49ers and Cardinals and got the Seahawks when they where terrible. The scrapped past the Seahawks twice,Packers,Broncos,Vikings and Chiefa, they could easily be 3 or 4 games worse off. Granted the Saints could and probably should have lost that early game to the Browns and got a little lucky in Baltimore.

Signing Suh has been terrible for the Rams, if Donald missed games it would be a good signing but playing both together is terrible. Both want sacks and teams are exposing them going after the QB but just running past them. Think missing out on Suh was a blessing in disguise,he looks like he is just happy making money. Where as Rankins and Onyamata look hungry and nasty and the stats are proving it. Same with Josh Norman miss a couple of years back
