Saints Safety Vaccaro to IR

[Cary Kollins]

 

Season ending surgery

They are falling apart.

Failure incoming

[Jeremy Igo]

Aren't they missing Klein also. Those are big losses.

[PantherOnTheProwl1523]

Your forgetting Kamara and Ingram and few others than can give us problems.

Damn, that dude was willing to do whatever it took to get his value up before free agency this offseason. Good for him

[pantherphan96]

At this rate Aints are gonna have to win every game in a shootout.

So if they lose to Atlanta and we win out, we win the division right? Any chance of a bye?

Yes, outside chance of a #2 seed...unlikely though

Best place for a dirty player like Vaccaro is anywhere not on the field.

the only way we get a bye is to get the 2 seed which means the following teams will have to lose one of their remaining 2 games and we would have to win our remaining 2 games : 

• Saints
• Rams
• Vikings

I think the Saints could lose to the Falcons if the Falcons find a way to shut down their run game. Rams could lose to the Titans because the Titans might miss the playoffs if they lose to the Rams on Sunday. 

The problem is the Vikings, they have a cupcake schedule the rest of the way . Green bay is pretty much a dumpster fire without rodgers and now TD knocked out Davantee Adams as well.And Hundley is   1-3 at Home, this game should be a terrible blowout. Then they close the season out with the Bears who I highly doubt will beat them either.

And both times we played them they were missing their whole starting secondary...still shut us down. Its not their defense, it's their offense outscoring us and putting us in predictable situations

Eh the last time we faced them I can honestly say we beat ourselves. 

I think having Olsen back really pays huge if we face em in the playoffs. Will always be a 50/50 tho wit em

[rayzor]

well that's a shame.

I'm hoping 3rd times a charm if we meet again, I want to see the ferocious D we had for Minnesota and not the scared poo from last week, blitz Brees and don't give a cushion for short dumpoffs and I feel like we would succeed

[rayzor]

we won't lose to them 3 times.

we're clicking on both sides of the ball for the most part. QBs are getting pressured and the secondary is disrupting. we're creating plenty of turnovers as well. quite a few in the last 2-3 games and i don't think that's going to slow down any time soon.
