..I wish these morons would stfu and stop telling the world their gameplan. I laugh because its not like the Saints are the first team to try to get pressure on 18. I hope they blitz each and every play, and get burned each and every play. dumbasses

If that's true, then the Saints will lose by 40. Manning has been sacked only 10x this year and some of those were voluntary (meaning he laid down rather than take the hit).

Both the Ravens and Jets went in planning to put allot of pressure on Manning with blitzes and both went home empty handed.

I also think it was an incredibly foolish mistake to announce that your going to try and knock down Manning as much as possible.... the refs will be bringing extra yellow flags to the game and will throw them early and often now that you have alerted them. With the admission that the high/low should have been flagged during the NFC championship game, the refs were already going to go into this game protecting the QB and now the Saints have given them even more reason to focus on that.

I'm sure Sean Peyton wishes Greg Lewis had kept his mouth shut.

And they will look for hits on Brees as well. At least they should. If they don't, that's complete BS.

26th ranked secondary...you blitz, you get burned....you don't blitiz...ehh you probably still get picked apart.

if those rankings were relavent then the saints would not be where they are right now.

also, i think we're going to see williams drop everyone into coverage more so than blitzing. people forget he likes to do that too.

    • Totally.  They had a guy starred on their boards that made it in trade worthy range. The risk was totally worth it.  Our case was the classic of a franchise not having a QB, do what you can to get one.  That often results being thrust into a bad situation, putting crazy pressure on 1 guy, and it becomes even worse when he's not that great.  But if we find ourselves just a few spots behind a guy we really like, I don't see a problem.   We just have to see how the season shakes out and enjoy this roller coaster.  It's not pretty at times but we somehow are 5-4 haha. If Bryce turns a page and cranks out some truly QB driven wins, then maybe we do consider just rolling with him and a Dalton replacement in 2026.  Someone like a Jarrett Stidham/Tanner McKee.   However, if he stays mostly the same (whether we fall apart or he struggles on/off but we still win some), I think you have to leave to door open for a QB in the draft.  Scout and meet with the top ones, see if any really fit what D&D want.  Maybe that guy could be Mateer.  Who knows
    • I lived in that area for a minute, and 2 decades of BB and Brady made them delusional.  They think everyone is the 2nd coming of Brady and they're just on a short coffee break til the next dynasty.
    • Bryce Young hasn't cleared 200 passing yards in a single game in that window.  Meanwhile, Rico Dowdle has put together the greatest 5 game stretch of rushing production in Panthers history.   And RBs have sort of been our thing, so there is ample competition.  This team hasn't been lead by Bryce Young in that stretch. Those wins are simplistically 3 things.  Schedule, Rico, and defense.
