Vikes aren't walking Keemun or Bridgey out there minus Dalvin & beating NO

LA doesn't have the dogs to match up with Saints defense. You can only scheme so much but if you can't win 1 on 1's you screwed. Robert Woods & Cooper Kupp vs Boonk gang is gonna get ugly

Philly ok fine, resume' says respect them but.... I don't think they can beat the Saints cause like LAR they are more scheme based then dog based. They have a little more dog to them on outside but nothing we can't handle. Wentz'a scrambling ability is what scares me. But neither them or LAR have the defense to stop what we are doing right now on O

Dalvin is not much better than what they are getting out of the other backs. Not even worth mentioning tbh imo.

The saints dB are being overrated bc they haven’t played qbs worth a salt. Look what Stafford did to them when he could barely make his way to and from the sideline. Lit them up.

Philly front seven will shut down that o. Heck the bears did without the ability to sustain drives on offense.

I would agree, I just think people give the rams this benefit but the Saints don't get the same to some

Yep, Rams SOS .398 compared to .563 for the Saints. SOV is .354 compared to .500.

Eagles SOS and SOV are even worse.

I know two things about boom:

1. He’s the resident idiot on this board
2. He hasn’t watched the saints defense at all this year and only regurgitates what the garbage sports media says






I learned all of that from this thread

Dalvin was averaging 88.5 yards a game and 4.8 ypc

The other two guys combined don't average 88.5 yards a game.

6 yards per attempt and 5 turnovers. It took him 52 passes to get to 300 yards.

Stafford was awful until the Saints were up by like 40 and took their foot off the gas

Boom looked at a score and saw a 38 next to Detriot, so he just assumed they had a good day on offense.

Yeah I didn't even mention that the Lions had a Special Teams and Defensive score.

Stafford didn't even throw for 50% (48% to be exact) completion percentage and threw 3 Interceptions.

7 wins in a row and counting. Might wanna watch some film, boom

No denying it anymore. They can beat anyone and are a contender. Would not be surprised at all if the saints make the bowl.

You mean the game where they gave up 24 offensive points and scored 21 of their own?

The one where yeah, Stafford had 3 TDs but also 3 interceptions. 2 went for 6.

unexpected for sure but in the NFL teams can get good or bad at the drop of a hat so not off the charts unexpected.


Yep. If a young player steps up and you avoid the injury bug that’s a great first step. The Saints endured a possibly unprecedented rash of injuries to their secondary last year which makes this turnaround seem even more drastic.

I always chuckle in prediction threads when people act like they know what they are talking about and unwittingly base their predictions on last year. Last year is last year.
