Saints vs. Ravens
For the life of me, I can't understand how this thread has not been started yet. The game is at 8 tonight. It airs on the NFL network tomorrow morning at 10.
Thoughts on the game? Things you'll be looking for? I personally want to see what the offensive line is going to do in this game. |

It's Friday already? Man, some weeks just fly by, don't they?
As far as the game...I'm really hoping Lewis plays and for more than just 4 or 5 carries. The run defense needs a good test. |

I'm watching both team's running game and o-line. That's what matters to me. Our o-line v. Ravens' D. Ravens' o-line v. our D.

RE: Re: Saints vs. Ravens
For me it's D-Line and LB's. Does anyone know if Fincher's coming in?
I'm worried about Watson. |

My concern is felt all around. With Stichcomb down and the line hoping not to move around much as far as new assignments, this will be key to watch. Defensively, I believe our corners are adequate (collectively). But our defensive line still scares me. The run defense is still suspect and not having Jamal Lewis back there will not validate much unless we still allow major yardage. Bryant Young and Az Hakim are scheduled to play in the opener but I would have liked them to get some reps in a some of these preseason games....lets hope the injury bug does not hit us as I don't think we have had any major issues other than Stitchcomb.

It's a simple premis - halfbacks move through the gap more quickly the more old Rick squeezes the line to stop it. Motorcycle manufacturers apply it to carburetor design. |
