They are looking pretty good against the Giants right now. We will definitely have our hands full. Our secondary better have the game together, because if they don't Brees will have a field day with them.


Rest in peace bigbry and dolphin debby!

Our secondary better come to play and our offense better stay on the field for long drives to get Brees out of his rhythm. This game looks scary to me.

Agreed.

The Saints appear to have ascended to elite status in the NFL. It will be a tough game for us. Thankfully, it is at home, and we have an extra week to prepare. If we execute the way we have the last couple of games, we have a chance. The secondary will be tested though, for sure.

Got to hope the Phins can control the ball the way they did against the Colts and that our secondary can take some steam out of the saints O.

They're going to have their hands full next week. They may get drubbed.

Lance Moore for the Saints always seems to be open, and making good catches.

If the Dolphins' defense doesn't play it's best game of the year against the Saints, it's going to be a bloodbath, plain and simple. I don't care how good the offense is playing, if the defense puts up its usual sub-par effort, it's a loss.

Looked like a TD to me. Then again the Ronnie Brown one in the Buffalo game wasn't overturned either.

Hell, they only scored 27 on the Bills and only had 10 points at the half in that game. They aren't perfect

Yeah the game looks really tough,the Saints are playing good football. On defense we need to get pressure on Brees and on offense we need to control the clock like we usually do and keep Brees off the field as long as possible.

It may be better to simply flood the zones with defenders rather than coming after Brees. Blitzes mean holes in the secondary, and to be honest the Giants are not getting much pressure anyways.

Why not make the windows a bit smaller rather than trying to come after him a great deal.

gotta run the ball and keep their offense off the field

I would also remind people that we too have the ability to get the ball down the field thanks to our running game.

Given how this defense has tried to stop the Giants running game, I would like to explore that matchup as well. The Giants have been able to move the ball pretty well in this game.

And move a safety into the box in place of a Lb, we have to rely on our 3 or 4 downlinemen to provide pressure...I'd love to see Wake in this game.

One reason the Bills slowed down the Saints is to make the offense march the ball down the field. The more plays involved, the higher the chance of a miscue, and if the team passes the ball a good deal, there are chances to make plays.

Make them be patient and play a shell all game long. Make them earn everything.

Jets also did a good job on the Saints offense, as Jet fans will tell you all day long.

That is where our tackling simply must be better, Wilson, Bell, Porter, they have to wrap guys up and put them down.

To me, the Saints do not run the ball very well.

if the G-Men can't get pressure, not sure how we will ... as their line is better ...

as usual the thing that scares me most is the TE and coverage over the middle ... we will get worn out unless Pasq can come up with something (scheme, since we don't seem to have the personnel right now)

the good news is ... whether or not Roth is ready or not -- he doesn't seem to factor much into this game, since NO has a lack of a running game. Let Wake gets lots of reps ..... and find someone, anyone who can cover Shockey ...
