Is Op Alice from the Saints board? He's looks similar and has a lot of the same traits...

They're going to follow the game plan of any team vs Bryce. Make him throw. If he has a good day, we can win. If not, the board will be heated again after the game. 

This. 
 

Bryce has to be at the very least “mediocre Bryce” 

The saints are going to do what they did the last time; lock in on the run, and make Bryce beat them. If he can’t do it; there will be alot of posters going back on hiatus and disappearing again

I’ve prayed for days like this.

Canales has them practicing on their 1st day back.

Saints run D has kinda turned to ass since they played us. They allowed Baker to run for 40 something yards yesterday and Tampa to run for 180-and their run offense is horrible.

I think you stick to the game plan against the rams/falcons. Run but if they start stacking the box get the ball downfield.

Horn can't fall again, they need to stop the run and they have to keep Shough contained in the pocket.

Simple

[t96]

The Bucs have been struggling badly as of late so the Aints beating them doesn’t really say much about the Aints being any good. Even Shough (or however you spell it) wasn’t even good and the Bucs still beat themselves.

We beat ourselves in the first matchup. If we can take down the Rams the Aints should be easy for us if we’re locked in and dialed in and guys don’t overlook them or assume it’ll be a gimme like last time. And need Bryce to not be absolutely awful like he was in the first matchup. But I do feel good about this game coming off the bye, I think we’ll finally get a convincing win with all 3 phases playing well (Atlanta blowout was good but the O really didn’t do much that game). 
 

Hopefully we take care of business as we should and the Falcons can spoil the Bucs this Thursday so we can see what this team is made of at home in a couple weeks. I’m still very very far from sold on Canales/Morgan, despite the surprisingly solid year we’ve had so far. Bryce I am sold on not being the answer, but the more Canales can get out of him the more confidence I’ll have that he can help us develop a true franchise QB

The Saints have Bryce's number and that building is cursed. Bryce needs to tap into something supernatural to win this game lol

Yeah I’m surprised this isn’t mentioned more 

We’ve got STOMPED the last two years in NO. The Saints looked pretty good yesterday and Shough is definitely no slouch

We don’t match up well with them or the Bucs tbh

 I suspect it's going to require a lot of short / intermediate passes with TE play to help

That sounds simple to the first strategy. 

one of 3 things needs to happen IMO

1.. Rico/Hubbard simply make plays and we lean on the run despite the Saints making the pass attractive.  All takes is a hole vs a stacked box and it’s a huge play. 

2.  D just goes out and wins it.  Think the first Atlanta game 

3.   Bryce/Canales go deep given is what the Saints give to be taken…..and it goes well vs bad

Shough is more than capable of beating you from the pocket. The guy honestly looks good

Yea, I’m worried about this one. It can get ugly really fast in that dome. If we were going to beat that team, it probably had to be in Charlotte. I also don’t think there’s a chance in hell that we sweep the Bucs. I hope they prove me wrong, though. 

[RevJ]

In the first game, I felt like they pushed us around whenever they wanted.  If our guys don't fight in the trenches, probably doesn't matter what Bryce, Rico or Chuba can do, won't be enough to overcome being bullied.

I agree he does look good but I do not think he is good enough...yet.
