Splitting with the saints....

[Dpantherman]

Gotta remember we almost beat them in the dome with Jimmy as QB. Their defense has been suspect for a while. They rely on big plays on D, and when they don't get them, u when they dont get them, you can gash them.

[Highlandfire]

Their D , as usual, looks very suspect. I originally had us marked down for two losses, now I am thinking each teams wins their home game.

The pack seemed to back off in the 2nd half which I didn't get. I think we can definitely run on them.

[HPPantherzfan]

I'm sorry but unless the entire team makes a 180, I don't see us beating any team that is capable of score more than 30 points.

Keep in mind, the Green Bay defense isn't terrible or at least not compaired to ours.

[CLTPanther]

Only if we can put up 30+

[Pox 08]

What's up with people claiming that we'll have to score 40+ points to beat the Saints?

More times than not, we play them close. I not only see a chance of splitting with the Saints. I expect us to. We should have split with them last season. We came dam close to doing it, but the injuries were too much for us.

Our defense kept us in that game last year. Our defense looked a lot, let me say again, A LOT better than it has thus far.

Hope you guys are right but after watching what they did to GB's defense I don't see it happening.

[rayzor]

our defense will look a lot better than it did in preseason.

their defense sucks...again. it wasn't just because they were playing the packers. it's because it sucks. it doesn't mean the packers don't have a good offense, because they do. it just means the saints D sucks.

we'll split with them.

we'll split with the bucs.

might split with the falcons. i'm not sure what their old defense can stop.

that isn't going to have us layoff bound or anything. it just means we won't be the doormat of the NFCS.

[Cyclonus]

Seriously? With no pressure on Brees how the hell will the Panthers corners cover the Saints WRs? Quit being homers and face reality.

it's been 4 preseason games in which they, by design, went very vanilla in their scheming and didn't have beason out there leading things.

How do we always cover the Saints' WRs? It's not like we've been a powerhouse of pass rush in the past.

Re: Preseason Defense

We did what we wanted to do.

LOL.

Brees threw for 419 yards and 3 tds against a Super Bowl defense with the last two defensive MVPs of the NFL.

Brees will throw for 700 yards and 5 tds against the Panthers secondary.

[Snake]

By the time we face the saints we should have another DT to solve the problem there.
