I know they've played three garbage QBs recently in Dak, Jameis, and now Cam, but they've played very well against the run.

They haven't given up more than 17 pts since the Rams game.

Booger said they haven't been tested against the run but they shut down Gurley, McCafferey didn't do much outside of a trick play, Zeke got held in check for the most part too.

Our d line play is pretty elite too.

If the Saints defense keeps this up league is fricked.

That's one way to spin the Saints scraping out wins against shite teams and hurt QBs recently

I mean it’s true though. Offense has sucked but the defense has been among the best in the nfl lately.

I didn't say he was shut down. 14 yds of that was at the end when we were giving up the middle of the field to kill clock. He also needed 23 touches to get that. He didn't exactly rip us a new one.

29 touches to get that. He also got 21 of those yards on one carry.

19 touches for 79 yds for Gurley. Wow.

So he only got 4.8 YPP, awesome.

Wasn't aware big plays didn't count.


They've played well, but let's not act like they're something they're not. They are holding bad teams to low totals, but the good players are still getting theirs

This weak shite argument. When you cant look at and see that outside of one play he had 22 carries for 54 yds. That's 2.4 yards a carry. If he tears off a 50 yd td that's one thing but it's only a 22 yd gain.

He averaged 3.26 yards a carry with that added. Only Houston and Washington did a better job.

When that's your only offense, that ain't so awesome
