Default Chargers vs Saints - Talk About It Here



OK ok... I know Saints are 0-4.
However, I just feel like the Saints have an advantage against us. Especially in the WR vs CB department.
Our CB's don't match up well with them imo. Colston is a huge advantage for Brees... we must eliminate them.

add Sproles to this mix and tbh I am really worried about this game.

Then we have what I like to call the worst defense in the league in the Saints. PR, Mathews (despite my dislike), and Gates should give them fits... IF we execute how we should. Meach could have a break out game, and I hope he does. Rivers needs to flex the deep ball muscle this year. We also need to hold time of possession over the Saints. Less Touches for Brees the better.

Fantasy/Game wise... Floyd is app to a big game. The Saints know Meachem better then anyone so I bet they game plan for him a little more then Floyd, while also trying to take away Gatesy.

Our D has looked good, 3/4 weeks. If Ingram and company can get the pass rush brewing and We cover the Old lighting bug. Need the defense to step up huge against Brees.

So all in all this game feels like a trap. Despite our advantage against that defense.

We know their potential. It's really not much different than saying the Chargers were a threat if they made the playoffs even at 8-8 or 9-7. We know what the Saints can do.

Not really a trap. The team knows what's up.

No problem if they want to double Meachem. GO AHEAD

As soon as they lost against the pack I knew this game would be a trap. The Saints will be desperate for a win.

Hoping for the best, but I don't expect us to win this game. I don't see how our offense can keep up with the Saints even with their suspect D. Our defense will have to really show up.

It's only a trap for fans psyche that think the record tells the whole story for them. Our Bolts should be good to go.

I tend to agree that he will be our biggest problem. Hopefully since the Saints don't spread the field the way the Falcons do, we can get some help on Graham instead of putting Bigby on him solo.

Mathews and Battle looked good together, and the Saints can't stop the run. On top of that they have been horrible against the pass. We can stop their run. It all comes down to not giving Brees time because you are right, their WR's outclass our CB's.
