Official Saints at Panthers Gameday Thread!!!

Games a must win. We cannot afford to lose a divisional game, and we cannot afford to lose more than 1 game from here on out.

We need to start something before that 2 week stretch against an upstart Raiders team and Seahawks.

But, for the love of God, I want to see us CLOSE out games. That is what's killing us lately.

it may be time to win with Newton not running for 1st downs/TDs, having our QB get hurt at this point in the 2016 season is so stupid.

If we can score points without him taking hits outside the pocket and our Defense can get some turnovers, it would be a sign of team maturity. Normally i would say play to beat the Saints at any costs but with Oher out and Kalill nicked up ( and Gino hurt), I think we need a quick passing game and let the RBs do their job and for the love of god, protect Newton from any more head hunting hits. This needs to be a team win on a quick turnaround game...

No room for error.  Backs against the wall.  Us against the world.  Whatever slogan you want to use to provide motivation.  We have done well the past couple of years when put into this situation.  Two years ago we went into the dome and won 41-10 to keep our playoff hopes alive.   We need to play with a chip on our shoulders.  Its Primetime, division rival, playoff implications, etc. If you can't get up for this game, don't need to be on this team.

Panthers 27-24 (Saints get a score late to make it close)

Bold Predictions:  Cam has 2 Passing & 1 Rushing TD.  JStew runs for over 100 but Cam punches it in.  Gano makes up for some bad kicks this season with 2 45+ FGs. Defense has 2 INTs and 3 Sacks on Brees.

    • Thank you so much for posting links to the players so I don’t have to copy and paste the name and look it up.
    • All signs point to legit. We’ve been way better than our record the last few years it’s just we’ve had brutal injury luck. Also I’ve watched nearly every game this year and 3 things have stood out to me even when healthy from early in the year to now: 1. Early on Lee had some brutal rotations and situational coaching but he’s improved a ton there. We lost some close ones early we should’ve won. Sure most our recent games have been blowouts but in close games we’ve improved a ton there. 2. Defense. Overall team defense has improved so much, it’s not just hot shooting winning games. This D is absolutely a real trend and sustainable. LaMelo in particular has gone from flat out bad defensively to above average. We have so much length we always should’ve been good defensively but it took time for guys to buy in and really hone in on it which they have.   3. Pretty much all our young guys have taken strides forward. Moose’s development as a passer has been insane, Miller is putting it all together to be an elite 3 tier scorer able to hit 3s, mid range and finish at the rim. LaMelo still some poor shot selection but has cut the turnovers considerably. Kon has been a great shooter all year but has steadily improved in other aspects of the game too.      It has definitely been surprising how quickly it all came together out of nowhere but really none of it surprises me. We’ve been building towards this for years now.
