The Defensive draft

[the0rangecrush]

The saints have been terrible against the run regardless of whether the team has a speed back or they pound the rock.

Also, unless they run the no-huddle all game like Brady then Mays should not be out there covering him. Who did the chiefs have covering sproles all game? Belcher? Johnson? Berry?

Saints saw what Brady did to us, they will do the same thing, we were sucking wind in Foxborough wait till we are in Mile high.

The saints dont have the run game right now to do to us what Brady did

Exactly, nor do they have the defense (not the NE is great) they do. I think McGahee has a good game and we win TOP battle.

NE blew up their rushing totals against two bad against the run teams.

Betcha they don't do that to Seattle.

I hope they do. I have Ridley in FF

Not me Seattle fans become annoying here when they do well, though 1/2 priced drinks when seahawks score and denver gets scored on wipes away the pain

Good teams find ways to win, its as simple as that. We haven't done that, we are middle of the pack like it or not. Can we improve yes, but right now we are what our record reflects below average. We have a tough schedule coming up, a rivalry game with SD, then a match-up with Brees, a guy who can also pick us apart.

Just wanted to see if Orangecrush still feels like Chicken Little after we are 1 win away from getting the 7 wins he predicted weld get.

It's called what we call living in the moment.

Doubt he admits he's wrong or just says they are bad teams, yadda.

not as much, but I do think we are overrated.

We were together for a short period of time when we played ATL, HOU, and NE...Gotta give some breathing room.

we havent beat a good team, we've been beating middle of the pack ones. You can't say we are an elite team until we beat an elite team.

If we all have to start eating crow for things said on these forums, someone better order a lot more crow.
Denver, IMO is a good team right now but not a great team yet. If we keep coming together as a TEAM we may be a great team by playoff time. Remember, we beat NO and they turned around and beat a good Atlanta team, we beat Cincy at home and they turned around and beat the Giants the next week. As I said before, we are not great but we are getting pretty dang good! lol

Well...

We beat NO, who ended up beating Atl who was unbeaten. Also, holding THAT offense to basically 7 points is pretty damn impressive.

Beat Cincy who whooped the SB champs.

And NE, Hou, Atl were all early in the year, play them now and i like our chances to win at least one of those games.

And can only play who is on your schedule.

transitive property doesnt apply to sports. We played NO before Vitt had time to implement his changes and cincy in the middle of skid. Both teams are middle of the road. We had a chance at the elite guys, and fact is we lost. We get another crack at a good team against Balt. If we win that we can say we are in the discussion as a top tier team, until then we can only hope we are a big fish in a medium sized pond.
