It sounds like most media are favoring Rams. Here is why I think there are wrong.
1) Andersen had couple good games but the Rams Say they stole the Cowboys defense signals. PlusHe’s been with 3 teams in 3 years. He didn’t suddenly become a great running back.
2)We didn’t have Ginn in the first game to stretch the field.
3) Talib will not shut down Michael Thomas. TALIB does not play in the slot, and Michael Thomas Llines up about half the time there. The Rams don’t move their Cornerbacks around.
4) The dome is a Huge advantage.
5). The Saints totally shut down Gurley in the first game.

Whet do y’all think?

Gurley had 13 carries for 68 yards. They didn’t run him enough. If the saints can get off to a hot start they can force them to put it in the air.

You would think Cj Anderson is the new coming of Barry Sanders this week.

Who cares? Let them talk.

The national sports media is full of SJW’s like Max Kellerman aka the dumbest man on television. People like Kellerman are paid to say stupid things.

I will never understand why so many of our fans crave the attention of national media. You think anybody associated with the Saints gives a damn what the national media thinks?

Yeah they just didn’t run him enough times. He broke a few big runs against us. Still, I think we were more geared up for the pass. Any time we’ve keyed in on the run we’ve stopped it: Ravens, Panthers, Cowboys, Bengals, Redskins


As a result of slowing down Gurley and Anderson I think we give up some chunk plays to play action. I think Gurley will be like 20 carries for 75 yards or so. Anderson 12 carries for 34 yards.

68 yards on 13 carries is 5 yards a clip. That’s pretty damn good. He broke at least two long runs against us. He’s also the best back in the league

I’ll take the subtraction of Kupp and Brown even if Anderson is playing well.

We also have Ginn now but have lost Rankins.

I still think we are better offensively and defensively than them.

It’s not surprising that most of the national writers I’ve seen have a concern about the Saints nicked up Oline...which is alarming considering Donald and Suh are in the Dome tomorrow.

His longest run was 24 yards that’s 3 yards per on the other 12 runs. Sounds like a shutdown to me

The majority of the media picks I have seen are picking the Saints to win, and Vegas has the Saints as favorites.

Not sure where this narrative here of the Saints being disrespected is coming from.

People like to feign disrespect. That or they expect the media to be 1000% for the Saints.

How is 68 yds at 5.2 ypc totally shutting him down?
