On A POSITIVE Note Following Brees's Injury News

saintsfan1976 · 09-16-2019, 02:12 PM

Although our upcoming schedule is tough, we face only ONE division opponent before week 10 which is Drew's potential return game.

@ Seattle
Dallas
Tampa
@ Jacksonville
@ Chicago
Arizona
B Y E

I see us going 3-3 without Drew!

Then it's Falcons > Bucs > Panthers > Falcons

Plenty of time to still win the division.

Chin UP Saints Fans!!

It is almost like preseason is continuing on steroids.

The schedule before the bye is not that bad. Seattle is tough but everyone else we could hang with. Have to assume Teddy will improve so 4-5 at the bye is reasonable. Let him play his own game though and give him more long range air strikes. The short ball is not his thing. The stacking the box on Kamara will also stop.

Dalls and Chicago will do to our O line what Rams did. We better tighten up the protection bc Teddy doesn't release quickly

Or he doesn't release at all. Can't expect 7 to 12 seconds in the pocket on any team to make a decision on who to pass to every down.

That's why I prefer Taysom. He knows the reads, has a cannon and his accuracy has improved tremendously. Not to mention he can run and will level you if you try and tackle him.

Bridgewaters entire body language just irked me straight away, like he was just sick of everything when given a chance.

If Taysom goes in as the starting QB we lose all of his intangibles. Bridgewater is more accomplished and working with the ones in practice will give us the best chance. I LOVE Taysom, but putting him in as the starter would be stupid. That's why it won't happen.

This right here. He looks like a player whose given up. There’s just something about the way he carries himself. Lack of confidence, chemistry with teammates, something. I just don’t see him providing that spark that players rally behind.
Something about his energy.
Hill on the other hand is full throttle. His attitude is infectious.
It’s not necessarily Tbs play that bothers me it’s his body language.

Seattle, Dallas and Chicago are losses.

We should be able to beat Tampa Bay, Jacksonville and Arizona.

Only one I am worried about of those three is Tampa for the reason that they usually give us a hard time. Arizona could surprise us too. They hung around with Baltimore all game long. Their coach kicked 4 field goals when he should've went for it all 4 times; that was game changing for them.
