Breakdown of Seattle Defense vs Saints

Brees may have had to hold the ball longer than normal against Seattle, but he held the ball as long as he wanted to in the second quarter against us.

They still got pressure, we did not. It was also cold, rainy, windy, and loud in Seattle. It was nice and comfy in the dome.

They have Earl Thomas and Richard Shurman. We have Mike Mitchell and Melvin White.

Anything you say past that is irrelevant.

 

Its the blitz packages they sent not so much what the CBs did. Needless to say we came in thinking we could beat Brees in the dome with a 4 rush and not even Thomas nor Shurman could cover as long as we let Brees have.

From the article, Seattle was getting pressure with 3 or 4...and dropping dline into coverage. Brees was not comfortable.

 

I'm trying to watch the Panthers All-22 now...and I'm taking a break now after seeing LaFells horrible blocking. Schula playcall had the numbers to pickup decent yardage but LaFell's blocking killed it twice.

Seattle's secondary is way better than ours, however you have to attribute some of their success against Brees to them playing in their building.  The fact that that place is so loud, it prevented an offense that is predicated on timing from executing.

 

This is the sole reason why Brees and company are not as good out of their building.  It is the fact that their offense and Brees rely so heavily on their timing.  Brees has put together a hall of fame resume, however he hasn't figured out a way to translate that on the road.

 

New Orleans would beat Seattle in the Dome.  It would be a close game, but I think they would come out on top.

Let me put it this way. As good as Seattle's DBs are, you put them in the dome and take away their pass rush and Brees would have 4 TDs against their DBs too.

 

We could have used better performances from our DE's for sure, but I doubt that Thomas would be hanging around the back line of endzone for every TD like our FS was.

    • Think the "official time" put out was 4.48, but there were a lot of scouts there who of course all had difference times as it's all handed timed by them.  Think I saw it as low as 4.43 and as high as 4.62 or something, but in the end it's all basically the same speed because 40 yard dash is so pointless. Anyone who complains about his speed is just someone who wants a Chase/Jefferson/Nabers style #1 as opposed to an Evans style #1 who isn't going to beat you because of his speed but his other abilities. In the end, he's fast enough for a player his size and surprisingly quicker and more agile than people give him credit for too. The real problem is that Panthers fans can't get our past big WR failures out of their head, they hear "big WR" and automatically see a plodding KB or Jarrett in their minds and assume that's also T-Mac.
    • If you are buying Silver Club, 300 level, try and the buy ones that have the Lot 1 parking pass.  it is steps to the stadium Also, buy on the shade side my PSls used to be section 342, under the overhang.  I didnt care about sun or rain plenty of sites have interactive  maps that can show you   Just know, if they are opposite side of 342, the sun will beat on your head…endzones too.   if, you know for sure that you are going, and you need a hotel room, do it now  you can always cancel … remember, even if the panthers suck,  the national press follows them as do their fans.  Hotel rooms go fast for that game 
    • didn't he run like a 4.52?
