Seems like a matchup nightmare for us tonight with Douglas and Burris out again. Hope I’m wrong but after watching the Saints backups move the chains with ease, this makes for a very tough matchup on paper.

In spite of this Vegas still has us favored by 2 somehow, so maybe I’m missing something.

The weather likely helps us with that matchup.   Especially if we get the predicted wind to go along w/ that rain.   Well, at least the deep ball aspect.

I'm in Charlotte right now. By game time there will probably hardly be a breeze. It's sunny with an occasional breeze at the moment but it's rapidly tailing off. The storm is moving out. They expected this thing to be a fast mover but I think it was a lot faster than they even predicted.

well, that would be good.  I thought I saw something on twitter calling for heavy winds by kickoff.    I was under the impression a system rolled in this evening near kickoff. 

If we get a window of good weather I'm making a wildcard Teddy B fantasy play in my money league.   Can't do it with the weather.

It seems the chance of rain spikes again tonight.  Though rain could hurt our passing game too. They have Gurley, we have Whitehead and Boston :(

Maybe, now we are seeing why linebackers are important to a defense.

I mean we essentially went straight from Morgan to Beason to Luke.  

that is what? 19 straight years of studs occupying the middle?   We definitely got spoiled in that one aspect. I'd imagine LB in general has been our strongest position in franchise history too.

There was a common line of thought around here the last few years that linebackers and defense weren't important which always seemed a strange.
