Quick question,just wondering...

In both instances, Drew wasn't shut down. The running game was just working for the Saints in both games and neither team had the offense to compete with the Saints. They had over 200 yards rushing in Buffalo and another 150 against the Jests. If I can run for 150+ on a team, I'm going to be doing that instead of passing any day of the week.

 

Personally, I don't care what any of the talking heads says about us. Whether they're underestimating us, or just don't think we're very good. It doesn't really matter (to me). Matter of fact, I kinda like being the underdog. Just remember...it's ain't the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.

Bring it on baby!

 

Well I hope the amount of times Henne was sacked by the bills is not a sign of things to come against the jest. Henne needs have better field presence and make fast good decisions, he also needs to learn to look off his receivers instead of locking in. Here is how Miami is going to win this game they will pound the ball and control the clock just like what they did to the colts but this time pull out the victory. The Jest aren't 4-0 for no reason they have improved and they do have a good defense, but they are vulnerable against the run. I believe the Jests will put 8 men in the box against Miami forcing Henne to beat them with his arm, so maybe you will see a pretty decent amount of the wildcat.
Go Miami!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Well I am officially starting to get a touch worried about our pass protection. We are simply giving up to much pressure and I was willing to give them four weeks to work it out but four weeks in and we still have problems. I'm hoping its more communication since it seems we have trouble picking up stunts but four weeks into the season this should be solved already

 

they are 3-1 and I certainly hope Henne can start doing some vet type stuff..looking off pump faking etc.

 

As PerfectTeam said. The Saint's run game was working, so that's what they went with.

 

The ugly truth is the Jets' defense is impressive. But that's not to say this isn't a winnable game for us; because it is very winnable.
We need to keep Sanchez (or as the Doc says Sanchex) off balance and not let him get comfortable.
We need to force some turn overs.
And we need to do what we do - run the ball and dominate TOP.
We do those things and we can win.

 

I haven't read the whole thread, so if this was suggest, I apologize.

My thought is that Drew wasn't exactly "shut down" I believe he wasn't as succesfull as he usually is, and its easy to say "shut down" when the guy throws for 250+ yards weeks in and out. I think that vs the Buffalo, AND New York, the gameplan was to run the ball, because IMO jets pass D is better than their run D. Exploit weaknesses, and thats what they did. Bills (like everybody else in the league) expected NO to come out chugging the ball down the field. Saints showed that they can run the ball as well as throw it, you add Williams - the new D coordinator, and their revamped defense, you have a very balanced team. I think NO is one of the best teams in the league right now because they are balanced. When we play them in two weeks, I believe our gameplan will be similar to the one we used against the Colts; Control the clock, run the ball right at them, we all know that Brees can pass it, so keeping it away from him will be crucial.

 

He did some of that last week against Buffalo.
