Hope springs eternal - MNF

Call me crazy, but I have a good feeling about the MNF game with Saints.  I know Saints  should be the favorite, but I think this will be a close game that we can win. After digesting all the analysis afrom the Falcons performance, I am confident this offense will be improved, particularly Bryce Young who will avoid turnovers, but will be aggressive down the field.   He shines under bright lights and the moment won't be too big for him.  Saints defense is good, but I trust that Brown and Reich will have a formidable gameplan to take advantage of their tendencies.

On the defensive side of the ball, our D always plays well against the Saints, I think we have held the Saints  to 11 ppg since 2018.   Carr also does not perform well when under pressure.  He's going to give us some turnover opportunities.

Fire at me all you want, I'll come back here to collect receipts on Monday night or to lament. 

Not going to fire at you. Football is far more fun when we think we can win every week.

I'm not worried about Bryce, the defense needs to step up.  Carr could pick them apart for 350 yards and 3 TD's

Seems kinda odd since the D only gave up 221 total yards last week and held the Falcons to 2-10 on 3rd down while Bryce only threw for 148 yards on 30 attempts and threw 2 INTs to account for both of our turnovers and fumbled once on top of that, albeit it was recovered.

    • Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure. 
    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
