What Saints Fans are Saying

I will say this...

Seattle is a different type of defense than ours. We both are strong but really in different places. They played and matched up perfectly with the Saints. They have big strong DB's that cover like your grandmas neck.

I think the offense will be fine but we need to get away from dwill/stewart and our 2nd and 9's.

I think we will beat them but it's going to be close....real close.

Our CBs are not great but they are physical and as a whole our defense is better than the Seahawks. If we can stop the Pats we can stop the Saints.

I read a couple of the topics over there and most of them sounded pretty realistic about the possibilities of Carolina coming in and mopping up. The realists far outnumber the blind homers.

 

Saw the same thing.  Many posters are saying that we are and should be licking our chops to get a hold of the Saints this week.  And that nothing they saw on Monday night should make anyone worried about playing the Saints.

The Saints are weak mentality and are going to have a short week. Not only that but we are actually as healthy as we are going to get on for this game. We have played harder games this season and faced better teams. If we ever expect to win in Seattle we need to win this game.

I think @ NO is the toughest game on our schedule. Not by a large margin but I put that slightly ahead of SF.

Saints are two different teams. The tough one plays at the dome

I agree with you.

 

I would feel great about this game if it were here....and I wish we had the first matchup here.

 

Saints in the dome are one of the toughest teams to play....we will need our A game.

So is SF and you have to deal with the wind. I don't think it will be a cake walk but your talking about intangibles and right now in the minds of our players its the biggest game all year, a playoff game.

Three ways to handle Brees,  jam receivers at the line, put him on his back and ball control.

 

Do those things and Saints are beatable.

 

The Dome thing is psychological, just like playing outside is psychological.

 

Their defense is not concerning; but, Cam can't have any lazy throws, he will need to be perfect, and that is the one big difference between him and Russell Wilson.  Sometimes Cam's athleticism is the windshield and sometimes its the bug. It needs to be more windshield come Sunday night.

 

Tell you the truth, of all the over hyped teams, the Saints are one of them.  Every time I've watched them on Sunday ticket, just was not impressed.

 

Really a shame Panthers screwed up in Arizona.

The Saints are a carbon copy of the Seahawks ......lol get the fug outta here

Russell Wilson is really really good but he isn't as good as Drew Bree's just yet. In every other position outside of tight end Seattle is better. Brees missed several open receivers because of the pressure that Seattle had on the Saints.

Our front 7 is better than Seattle. Most Seattle fans will tell you that. I do have concerns with our secondary but I am confident we will put the best players out there so we can compete. I think we will need mobile Cam to be effective in The dome but I like our chances.

Dayton Florence should start, and so should Captain, but Captain should be lined up inside.

Man I can't wait for the next 4 weeks.

Exactly!!! Your post hit it on the head. New Orleans defense runs to the ball and they play aggressive but they aren't that talented. They miss tackles and over run plays.

I worry about pressing Brees' WRs.....bad QBs have taken advantage of us doing that on the outside

at least after the humbling loss last night some of those knuckleheads are at least acknowledging we are built to beat them and are capable of doing what seattle did last night.  before the smashing by the Seahawks, they didnt give us a chance.

 

Cam can't pass, he chews gum, he is immature, he can't lead, he is a me first guy, they havent played an offense like the saints yet(lol) etc...

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
