Saints vs Packers

I feel like a big part of the Saints offensive game plan should be to pound the Packers run defense with the combo of Kamara & Murray running the ball...a lot. The Packers D against the run is suspect and this would take some pressure off Brees and the Michael Thomas-less WR corps

What do y'all in the B&G Universe think Would love to hear others' thoughts!!!

I'd like to hear about a pass that went further then 7 or 8 yards in the air.

Re: Saints vs Packers

Without MT on the field, the ground game would be the best plan of attack.
Once their D is softened up a bit then Drew can see which one of his receivers is gonna catch some balls.

Re: Saints vs Packers

Packers LB’s are terrible. Pound the rock and run routes out of the backfield all day. Forget passing to WR’s altogether.

Defensively, they don’t have Davante Adams... which means Lattimore will get burned by a backup because he doesn’t care. Rodgers doesn’t throw to his TE’s so as long as we continue to be great against the run we’ll be fine.

Totally prepared to accept getting beat the phuck down. This team is average at best. No offense. Can't win with the Defense on the field that long. We need a QB that is more of a running threat and can chunk deep with power. We do not have it.

Taysom and Winston don't count?

Re: Saints vs Packers

While I like the concept, it simply isn’t a Payton “thing”.....he’s more of a, hey guys hold my beer and watch what I can do with all my toys....dedication to a run game, whether it is working or not is a concept he can’t seem to grasp. With arguably one of the top O lines in the league....he simply won’t commit to the run game for 60 minutes, hell for even a half.

Cover 2 never use to be safe against Drew because he would just attack the seams and dismantle it.

Now however, Cover 2 or Single high is completely fine against Brees because he can't attack teams deep and it means they can committ all this extra defensive help to the primary receiver - Kamara out of the backfield.

You got it right Bobdog he is Sean Payton and there is no rhyme or reason to how he sees a game.
Usually you can tell when the camera zooms in on him he has that Fungo look in his eyes.
I will say that he was more creative when he is hopped up on wads of Juicy Fruit.
