While I have no confidence this will be implemented and probably the reverse will happen here are my ways we beat NO. 

 

1. Run the ball early and often. Heavy sets multiple backs and formations. We want win if we don't run the ball. We don't have the WRs to pass so get them involved in the run game as well. 

2. Boot Cam out on waggle plays and let him gain yards as needed off the run. 

3. Defense needs to keep NO from big plays. We will control the clock with the run and make them waste clock as well. 

4. Keep good field position. We can't afford to turn the ball over or go 3 and out every series. Scoring isn't as big as field position. 

 

 

Welp thats it. I know easier said than done but it's our biggest shot imo.

No 3rd and longs.   We will get destroyed if we need to convert these on a consistent basis. 

No missed tackles.  That and special teams was literally the difference in the second game. 

Must convert redzone opportunities.  The chances we get to score, we have to score touchdowns.

100% on #3.  Chunk plays killed us both times this year, stop those, and we stop the saints.  Saints thrive on 15+ yard plays, hold them to 2 or 3 in the game, and we gonna win.  

 

I think we need to force turnovers, something we've been hit or miss on this season, and thats why I think we need to force the pressure early this season by going fast pace, maybe even hurry up on the first drive and get us on top, force Brees and that young team to make plays and put the ball where they might not want to put it.

I feel like we are going to obliterated, which is sad because you think of division rivalry and you think close games... But on the optimistic side, I thought we'd get obliterated against Arizona in 2015, and boy was I ever wrong.... Anything is possible, but doubtful from a team who knows us inside and out. Fingers crossed

Turnovers and control the ball.  3rd downs must be in our favor, both sides.   Certainly possible but cannot let them get up big.  

One thing, we have played to the comp most of the year but the one team that has an answer is NO.  Sigh.  We gotta be super efficient and keep the ball.

Win the turnover battle. Can't be even with them. Have to at least be +1 in turnovers.

Don’t mean to interfere in your discussions but, this guy gets it. If Drew’s not on the field the Saints can’t score. #worriedalittle

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
