Whatcha hoped to see in this game and how it turned out...

Consistent pressure and a running game. We get those two and we win.

I hope that we run the ball.. Drew is deadly when safeties are thinking too much.

I hope the defense holds ATL to 17-20 points

I think you have to run to Samuals side the field. Robinson is a much better tackler. Have the WR come down on Abraham or Edwards.

Also remember that Drews nemesis is out...Brent Grimes. Look for the slot guy and Jimmy to have a huge game

What he said

Brees not having to or trying to do too much. No turnovers. Matt Ryan on his back.

So I've been right. Gonzales is eating the saints alive and J graham is beasting!

review your pregame thoughts...

-win CHECK
-Charles Brown playing well. His performance while Streif is out will be huge in evaluating him going forward. Bushrod is UFA again. CHECK PLAYED WELL
-Colston score 2 TDs for most evah in Saints history. The quiet guy needs to get more celebrated. CHECK scoring one he gets to get praised more than once
-half the performance of last week and we can get even more excited about Cameron Jordan's development. CHECK another solid performance, wanna see a gif of his helmetless pursuit & tackle
-Vilma, Lofton, and Hawhtorne on the field together? If they gel and get tight it could be the biggest turnaround factor for the D CHECK will have to see the numbers on how much they played together. Altogether though I can still call progress! at the LB position
-less whiffs on tackles, wrapping up instead of arm tackles and lunges CHECK still some but not as many embarrassing ones
-Vitt's comments on the run game this week lead to much hope of that continuing to build momentum DOUBLE CHECK gotta wow, looks like a completely different run game since Vitt's return. Then, how much could the OL have been missing out with Kromer in the HC slot?

I think they missed him a lot. Strief said on WWL that he saw a lot of "technique" mistakes in his KC performance. There really isn't much of an excuse for a game full of technique mistakes at that point of his career with as many years as he's been with the team. That really said to me that the OLine was missing a full time, undistracted Kromer.
