No BS responses, I know you all think we are dumb swamp rats...blah blah blah

Why do you guys really feel so strongly the Colts will destroy us?

I personally think we lose, but cover the spread. But all the posts I've seen on here sound like we will get killed.

I think we have a better running game, and can possibly play the ball possession game with them; thus keeping it close. Brees nor Peyton will make mistakes so neither side will have a ton of turnovers (Bush can be the X factor either way, with big plays or fumbles). Peyton will get his; he will throw from anywhere from 280 to 320 yards the question is can we hold them to field goals. That being said, Brees will throw for similar yardage.

I don't think our D can lock them down, but am hoping so. So let me have it, why will the Colts win?

I think that with Freeney out or all gimped up, it will be close. I don't think that the Saints will get blown out, but Peyton is just too damn good. Plus Caldwell & Co have had plenty of time to gameplan around Freeney's injury which helps big time. If he went down 1st quarter, that'd be a tough adjustment on the fly.

Their Defense is better than yours.

Manning has beaten Defenses that are way better than yours.

Agreed, our D is average at best.

But can't you say the same about Brees?

Because Peyton Manning is better than Drew Brees.

I actually think the Saints win.

Colts defense isn't great, and saints will be able to run the ball keeping manning off the field

it's the only chance we have...Manning will not pull a Favre and cough it up

peyton manning is the reason. he is the best QB in the game and can win games all by himself. he is at his smartest right now and has enough talent around him to get the job done. the defense may be weakened but so is the saints. saints might be able to score a lot but peyton and the colts can score a lot more when they need to.

when your DC's best strategy is to injure the opposing QB then that will tell you something. that is the best and only real hope the saints have. i have little doubt that they are hoping for that to happen soon in the game and they probably won't care that they will forever have an asterisk by their name if they do knock peyton out of the game.

lucky for the saints, the colts want to win it legitimately.

Manning actually has a history of not playing that well in the playoffs so I don't know he will be dominant by any means. On the other hand he has been there before and Bress has not. With all the hype that the saints have to win for the city and after 40 yuears of trying, it places alot of pressure on them.

In the end defense and turnovers will make the difference. I think Brees actually has a history of thrwing the ball up more than Manning and expecting the receivers to get it. So the secondaries will be heavily tested. The Saints do have a better running game but i don't think it will play a big part in the game unless the score is low. If there is a scoring fest then passing will rule the day.

I give the slight edge to Indy due to experience and not giving up big plays averaging surrendering only 10 points a game on defense in the playoffs.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      By TD alt · Posted

      I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.
