Heath Evans says the Saints going to put up 40.

[Snake]

I say the panthers put up 100 bazillion then!

[FugginPoo]

only way they put up that many pts is if their Defense shuts down our Offense and keeps our clock draining drives out of it.

 

We should worry about Brees and the deep ball

[osd22]

What he meant was 40 TOTAL YARDS.

He use to play for the Taints.  So I could see that.

If you want proof of his homerism look at his record picking Saints games (24th) on this site that tracks the talking heads.  Now look at his placement picking Panther games (80th) and you can tell he picks (hopes!) the Panthers will lose every week.  Note that he is 17th predicting falcon games because they both suck.

I watched this segment as well and Evans got called out immediately by Willie McGinest. Willie said something along the lines of why is everyone overlooking or disrespecting the Carolina Panthers. And that it's one thing to say the Saints will win, but saying they will drop a 40 burger on the best defense in the NFL is not right. And then there was a slight made that Evans might not be able to be objective (aka welcome to homer town).

I get confused, is this Heath Evans late Sunday night?

 

[Evengelion]

I think there are too much pressure on ex-athletes hired by the media to say dumb thing. You know, controversial. He knows as much we do the result of the game.

Florio 89.  Symbolic in a way :)

Respectfully disagree. I could see this going the same way as the Patriots game but with an extra turnover or punt thrown in. We'll grind out our long methodical drives down the field and Brees will get his. With our time of possession alone I don't think they give up more than 21. 28 at the absolute worst if our offense shows up. (If they give them a short field or turn it over obviously those numbers go up.)

I just think with the way Kuechly jumps those quick curl routes from TEs and Brees' heavy reliance on Graham we're bound to see some drops or a pick from forcing the issue.

 

i hope you're right!

My brain tells me that we should beat them almost as handily as the hawks did.

My heart is so conditioned to deflating let down losses that I still expect us to have a wake up call beating.

I'm not going to go negative Nancy, though.

Panthers 24

Saints 17

[Your GFs favorite huddler]

Have to start fast, no early 3 and outs.....long drives that flip the field position battle....Brees will make his plays but if he's constantly having to go 80+ we will be fine.....there's no way they get in the ballpark of 40....our team is too mentally tough and I think just flat out wants it more.....the majority of this team has seen 3 years of being soooo close on so many occasions....nahhhhh this is the panthers night.....cam takeover....enjoy the show haters

I'm wishing upon a big f-ing star we hold them to 14 or maybe 17.

It's actually quite possible with the way we work the clock. TOP could factor into this one big time. Keep them to FGs, eat up the clock and score TDs. However, I'm thinkin:

27-20

Panthers
