Pre-Game Thread Game 10: Saints @ Titans

Simien is a statue. Get after him.

 

But certainly will be a tough game, even without Winston under center. The Saints are on the heels of the Bucs and firmly in the wildcard picture as of right now. Whether or not they stay there depends on how they manage their quarterback transition problem. After letting the Falcons come back on them on Sunday, no telling what they will do against us (Simian or Hill). Either way, it's a great way for the defensive front four to feast again.

#3 baby! Not that I put alot of weight into these rankings but nice to see regardless

NFL Power Rankings, Week 10: Cardinals back on top; Chargers, Browns crash new-look top 10

 

Just looking at stats.

Kamara hasn't made a lot of big plays. He's averaging 3.6 yards per rush. They throw to him a lot. The receivers are a no name bunch, but seem to make big plays. Deonte Harris is a great returner. Blake Gillikin is a great punter. Demario Davis is a fantastic linebacker. Cam Jordan is the kind of player that seems to give us trouble, but he hasn't made a lot of big plays. Their pass rushers are huge and rangy, which is probably why they are so good against the run. Lattimore is feast or famine.

On paper, they really aren't that scary.

 

PFT has us at #3 as well. Finally Simms and that choad Florio gives us respect.

Would be nice to beat 5 straight (2020) playoff teams in a row.

 

Would be annoying if the Saints added OBJ right before we play them haha.

 

This one scares me a bit. We are absolutely in a letdown spot, meanwhile the saints managed to beat the Buccs just last week. Semien sucks but I'm assuming Peyton is going to involve hill more than last week. We should win, but if we come out flat I wouldn't be surprised if we drop this one.
