New Orleans Saints
(thought he deserved it due to his outstanding performances)
vs.
Oakland Raiders
(sorry Raider fans but I had to )
@
Key questions before this game:
1.) Does the Saints pass D allow Carson Palmer to look like a living, breathing QB and have success like they have this whole season or can they clamp down? (and not allow nearly 500 yards of offense)
2.) Can we continue a successful running game that we have shown the past two weeks?
3.) Can our D-line get some pressure like it has in the past?
4.) Marcel Reese is their starting RB I believe, does he go off on us or can we take advantage?
5.) Can our O-line continue to keep Brees upright? _________________

Palmer will have his yards, but all we do is throw, or play from behind.
2.) Can we continue a successful running game that we have shown the past two weeks?
Depends which run D shows up, but regardless, whether its on the ground, through the air or both, your offense will have plenty success
3.) Can our D-line get some pressure like it has in the past?
Most likely, especially if Spags is aggressive like he was against Philly.
4.) Marcel Reese is their starting RB I believe, does he go off on us or can we take advantage?
Doubtful that he goes off, our run game has sucked all year and I don't see that changing, although I obviously hope it does.
5.) Can our O-line continue to keep Brees upright?
lol yes

I really can't fathom a scenario where something other than shootout occurs, and I hate shootouts because our defense is historically terrible. I have a feeling Brees is gonna have to play nearly perfect today, especially after Oakland got embarrassed last week.
If we win, I predict Brees will be 35/48, 420 yds, 4 TDs, 0 ints. If we lose, it'll look more like 35/48, 420 yds, 4 TDs, 2 ints. I'm afraid Brees needs to be near perfect, we can't afford turnovers in a shootout like this will most likely be. |

Ivory needs to get 15 touches at least this game. He's certainly earned them. _________________

Agreed, regardless if Sproles is in or not, Ivory needs touches. |

That was Ingram, he deserves his 15 carries as well... _________________

The run didn't work that series, but please, please, please, please don't give up on it.
Why do I know they will? _________________

Who was that guy that made that pick 6? I thought we got rid of him because of how horrible he was  _________________
