While I have no confidence this will be implemented and probably the reverse will happen here are my ways we beat NO. 

 

1. Run the ball early and often. Heavy sets multiple backs and formations. We want win if we don't run the ball. We don't have the WRs to pass so get them involved in the run game as well. 

2. Boot Cam out on waggle plays and let him gain yards as needed off the run. 

3. Defense needs to keep NO from big plays. We will control the clock with the run and make them waste clock as well. 

4. Keep good field position. We can't afford to turn the ball over or go 3 and out every series. Scoring isn't as big as field position. 

 

 

Welp thats it. I know easier said than done but it's our biggest shot imo.

No 3rd and longs.   We will get destroyed if we need to convert these on a consistent basis. 

No missed tackles.  That and special teams was literally the difference in the second game. 

Must convert redzone opportunities.  The chances we get to score, we have to score touchdowns.

100% on #3.  Chunk plays killed us both times this year, stop those, and we stop the saints.  Saints thrive on 15+ yard plays, hold them to 2 or 3 in the game, and we gonna win.  

 

I think we need to force turnovers, something we've been hit or miss on this season, and thats why I think we need to force the pressure early this season by going fast pace, maybe even hurry up on the first drive and get us on top, force Brees and that young team to make plays and put the ball where they might not want to put it.

I feel like we are going to obliterated, which is sad because you think of division rivalry and you think close games... But on the optimistic side, I thought we'd get obliterated against Arizona in 2015, and boy was I ever wrong.... Anything is possible, but doubtful from a team who knows us inside and out. Fingers crossed

Turnovers and control the ball.  3rd downs must be in our favor, both sides.   Certainly possible but cannot let them get up big.  

One thing, we have played to the comp most of the year but the one team that has an answer is NO.  Sigh.  We gotta be super efficient and keep the ball.

Win the turnover battle. Can't be even with them. Have to at least be +1 in turnovers.

Don’t mean to interfere in your discussions but, this guy gets it. If Drew’s not on the field the Saints can’t score. #worriedalittle

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
