I’m sure Bridgewater can throw to wide open receivers as well. It takes a special talent like Winston to get completions to wide open defenders.

If the Rams get this win I can trade Todd Gurley away week 12 and rip someone off in my money league.

I was thinking the same thing... the Saints might have a let down vs the Bengals. We can only hope.

My thoughts exactly, or perhaps we get fortunate with some cold weather. They just hung 45 on the Rams D. Granted it was in the Dome, but that's a scary number when comparing the Rams/Bengals defenses.

Dear Lord. Have you seen this defense? The Saints can have an Ebola breakout and drop fifty on the Bengals.

We can only hope for terrible weather, and Kamara pulls a hammy. And Ingram fumbles again... a few times

Are you freaking serious??? Two weeks to prepare for the Saints!! Our coaching staff will have some surprises in store for the lowly Saints!!
My prediction: We get the ball first and take a delay of game on the first play. Then call a timeout right after. 1st play is a throw to the right for Erickson who is 6 yards out of bounds. Run up the middle for 2 yards. Then an eight yard route to Uzhomah to set up a managable 4th and 5. So we call another TO and set up a Huber 32 and a half yard punt!!!! Field position baby!!!

There is a formula to win this game. The Bengals have to take advantage of getting the Center and RB back, they have to run the ball more and eat clock time. They should aggressively play the pass on D and hope that it forces them to run more. The Bengals should blitz like crazy on obvious pass plays and pray for turnovers. This will probably be a loss but a few blunders could keep this a close game. I’m normally pessimistic in games like this but I have an odd feeling that turnovers will keep us close.

I said 7-9 before the preseason games. With key injuries and the Bengals defense at 32 for yards and 29 for points, 7-9 looking like it might happen after all.

I actually think we have a shot in this game. Just hope Thomas doesn't decide to put on a show for the Columbus folks. Gonna be tough! Kamara is scary as hell as well.

A loss to the NO should be expected. We just have to somehow beat the Browns twice, Oakland, Baltimore, and Denver (all winnable games with a suspect D and without Green) and the playoffs are likely if you take a look at the AFC.
Forget the Saints. The focus should be on Baltimore.

Perfect confidence builder.
If we pull it out agianst the Saints without AJ. Dare i say. People will regain faith in Marvin.
In reality it is not good odds. But if it happens .. Boy. We are back in the mix with the big boys

Very sensible approach to the 2nd half of the season. All things considered, if the team does accomplish this, then 2018 turns out to be a success imo. How can anyone expect more from all of the changes made prior to the season, along with all of the injuries that have happened to date?
Oh yeah, I'd be okay with this.

IF we beat the Saints without AJ...it might be the biggest upset in the NFL this year. That said, the Saints aren't great on the road. Also, they may take us lightly after beating the Rams. Maybe they have a letdown game?
Any given Sunday.
