I think we are going to pressure Winston and frustrate him and he’s going to make some mistakes. 

On the other side they are going to pressure Darnold all day and depending how he responds to that will be whether we win or not.

I think we will hold the Saints to right around 20 points. The key will be whether our Offense can out perform that because I think our Defense will do it’s job.

you got to believe this was the game the coaching staff was thinking about in the off season. The Jets game was going to be shaky due to new personnel and rookies but the defense was going to keep us in it.

And now we have data on how players performed in a real game.

the crowd will be into it, we make some changes in scheme and it's going to be a fight against a division rival. Rhule will have our guys revved up and Brady/Snow will execute a game plan that have thought about for months.

the saints where thinking about the packers game in the off season and not about us.

 it's going to be an early test on our intensity and will. I like how this game sets up for us and 3.5 point ? that isn't much considering how the first games where played.

Prior to the one big play in the fourth there WRs had 4 catches for 48 yards, I think that game was as much the product of Green Bays lethargy and shooting themselves in the foot as it was the saints beating them I think this is a vary winnable game if we can contain there ground game and force them to drive the field (GB with three turnovers in their own end)

Are they that good or is Green Bay just that bad?

I think it wasn't a case of them being THAT GOOD or Green Bay being THAT BAD.

I think Green Bay honestly was just not ready to play that day and that falls on the head Coach LaFleur.

They'll rebound and beat whomever they face next game.

 

As far as the Saints go, Jameis Winston is their QB.    I don't know what else can be said.

If you looked closely, you'll see it's the same Winston who was with the Bucs.  

 

I think our D will make things very difficult for him next sunday.   

 

The only question is will Rhule adjust the Offensive Gameplan and spread the ball out more to the Wide Receivers instead of running CMC into the ground again?

I think if we keep the pressure up all game like last week, and not get gassed/let our foot off the gas, then we have a really good shot of getting Jameis to throw us a couple.  We need Sam to be opportunistic and continue to feed CMC to rock.  I think we have a really good shot of winning.  

I predict Panthers 27 Saints 24

This is why I say the Saints took advantage of GB's miscues. I don't feel like we did that. We should have won by at least two more TDs. We have to take advantage of Winston's mistakes. If we don't, then it could possibly get bad. I think it will be a close game. We will see.

That falls on Darnold needing to be more accurate when we are in the Redzone.  

Hope he improves in that aspect.

They have the best offensive line in the NFL. Our front four will have their work cut out for sure. 
 

With that said, them missing Davenport and Lattimore is a big deal. The offense will need to put up 24+ this week to win. 
 

I expect a close game with the Saints seeing a little more realistic side of Jameis this week than last week.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      By woahfraze · Posted

      I’m not necessarily advocating sticking with Bryce. His highs show the ability is there, but there’s enough bad film out there to doubt that he can consistently enough play at a high enough level. But this video from Brett Kollman is a pretty good argument to give it a bit more time, whether that be rolling with Bryce just next year or picking up his 5th year option (not extending him).      The gist is that the structural (wider hashes) and rule (3 yd vs 1 yd thresholds for intelligible offensive lineman downfield penalties) differences in the college and NFL have led to wildly different play calling and scheme diets in college. There is much more shotgun and RPO calls in college and screen/quick throws. This simply doesn’t set up young QBs to be able to play under center, which is more preferred in the NFL due to RBs being able to more effectively run out of that formation.  They don’t know how to do it and have to learn. Yes, the NFL has trended more toward college style offense in the last decade or so, but it isn’t that pronounced and is more out of necessity than desire. And on top of all that, they ask the young QBs to do all this learning with coaching and other personnel churn going on around them.  Bad results lead to coaches getting fired and new ones with different ideas on scheme and footwork and different terminology and playbooks coming in. It makes it harder on those young QBs to learn.     So we may drop Bryce for a young QB starter in the draft and be in a similar situation. With a QB who is going to take years to learn how to operate in an NFL style offense and will struggle along the way.  So you have to weigh whether the struggles we see from Bryce are more due to this learning process vs solely physical limitations on his part. It’s almost undoubtedly a bit of both, but the answer to that question I think dictates your strategy at QB over the next few years. And of course, you have to consider what the alternatives available are.    I’m neither a Bryce hater or a Bryce Stan and I don’t have an answer to that question. But I do fear that if we move on from him, unless it’s for an established player, we’re just in for continued frustration on the QB front because it’s going to take a few years for a college QB to develop (Drake Maye’s don’t grow on trees).

      A question no one is asking about Bryce and The Panthers

      By CRA · Posted

      The defense has pulled that feat off this season though.  Multiple times. offense has not had a single good first half all season.  Only and good opening scripted drive paired with disappointing play.  defense has been the actual unit you can measure real and consistent improvement IMO.  Still holes and flaws to it that aren’t going away until new bodies get here but they really are the story of the season IMO

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      One thing about RB's and LB's is they are going to get hurt. It's inevitable. Having a fresh Chuba is not a bad thing.  My only criticism of this entire situation is that I wish our staff would adjust personnel to matchup a little better. I think Chuba is a lot better than Rico against the stacked boxes we've seen the last two weeks. They are very different backs with very different strengths, and I love them both. Rico is so good at identifying the hole early, and hitting it full speed early. He's much better at breaking the big run. Chuba is a much more patient back, and finds 3 yards when there's nothing there better than Rico.  It's in no way a criticism of either, but I think Chuba would have had more success than Rico the way the Saints and Falcons attacked us from a Defensive standpoint.  When you put 9 in the box, often times there is no hole to attack.
