Skins v Saints Pre game thread

[MTK]

I’m really not seeing anything bad about what Swearinger is saying, he’s not talking trash about Brees, some of you guys need to loosen up those panties a bit

Saints also just signed a CB off the street, they are hurting bad back there.

I feel like we've said this before every prime time game for the past 3-4 years (Pittsburgh, etc.) or so and have always been disappointed. The old cliche comes to mind where they say, "Insanity is defined by doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results."

But this time it's different!

Haha, call me insane but I too believe we can make a statement here on the national stage. Defense is improved and we had them last year. Guys will come out hungry and fresh from the Bye with a bad taste in their mouth.

HTTR!

This should be a game where Crowder can get going. They lost their nickel Patrick Robinson who was a pain in the ass against us last year when he was an Eagle. Lattimore is a beast so don't look for Doctson to get going this week, but they're thin when it comes to covering the slot. Crowder on turf, advantage us.

Def will be a starter for me on Fanduel

Brees might get the record by halftime...lol. Seriously, we're not holding Brees to under 200 yards. That laughable. Just limit the big plays and get a couple of turnovers.

I doubt Lattimore stays w/ our 4th or 5th option. Doc may be able to actually have a decent game, that is if his heel isn't hurting him.

Very well but the Saints have no history of putting Lattimore in the slot. So either they start for the first time against Crowder or they put him against Richardson/Doctson.

Either way there should be opportunity. They're not deep enough at DB - if Lattimore actually does move to the slot for the first time then Doctson would line up against a pretty poor player.

We're going to be the first team in 5 years to hold Brees to under 200 passing yards?

Why don't we set attainable goals, like winning the game.

Bree's throws for over 400
Kamara has 200 all purpose yards
Micheal Thomas has 150 yards
Saints 51-24

Not putting much stock in our 2nd ranked defense huh?

[punch it in]

Just watched the Giants pretty much shut down the Saints passing game. They couldn’t stop the run though, and their offense is putrid. We can, and ours is not.
Game plan, scheme, play-calling, that is what will make the difference. I am still not sold on our HC, or his staff. Hopefully This game gets me on board.

Saints aren’t scoring 50, please
