What's up with people claiming that we'll have to score 40+ points to beat the Saints?

More times than not, we play them close. I not only see a chance of splitting with the Saints. I expect us to. We should have split with them last season. We came dam close to doing it, but the injuries were too much for us.

Gotta remember we almost beat them in the dome with Jimmy as QB. Their defense has been suspect for a while. They rely on big plays on D, and when they don't get them, u when they dont get them, you can gash them.

Our defense kept us in that game last year. Our defense looked a lot, let me say again, A LOT better than it has thus far.

Hope you guys are right but after watching what they did to GB's defense I don't see it happening.

our defense will look a lot better than it did in preseason.

their defense sucks...again. it wasn't just because they were playing the packers. it's because it sucks. it doesn't mean the packers don't have a good offense, because they do. it just means the saints D sucks.

we'll split with them.

we'll split with the bucs.

might split with the falcons. i'm not sure what their old defense can stop.

that isn't going to have us layoff bound or anything. it just means we won't be the doormat of the NFCS.

it's been 4 preseason games in which they, by design, went very vanilla in their scheming and didn't have beason out there leading things.

it will be a lot, let me say again, A LOT better than it has looked thus far.

Their D , as usual, looks very suspect. I originally had us marked down for two losses, now I am thinking each teams wins their home game.

LOL.

Brees threw for 419 yards and 3 tds against a Super Bowl defense with the last two defensive MVPs of the NFL.

Brees will throw for 700 yards and 5 tds against the Panthers secondary.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
