SAINTS > vs The League (week 8)


The New Orleans Saints vs the NFL League - 31 teams.

When comparing each level of competition the Saints will encounter, the remaining teams on New Orleans' schedule then all possible playoff team and finally the AFC opponent representing the "Superbowl".

Next in line awaiting "The Saints FreightTrain" to plow them are the Arizona Cardinals.

How do the Saints match up against the Cardinals? Easy answer, they "over matchup"!

The "key" to New Orleans winning is to stop just one man!

Arizona's quarterback Kyler Murray, he is the heart of the team. As a rookie playing against a very intelligent and aggressive defense in New Orleans, may become a bit unstable once Murray witnesses the attack foremost. Murray's game plan may be dampered a bit. The Saints will have him running for his life the entire game. They know Murray is mobile so they'll "key" in on certain downs. New Orleans blitz packages are too much for anyone to handle (even experienced QB's), during live play it's all up for grabs how quarterbacks handle the pressure repeatedly on every single play. The Saints will send 5-7 players each play; it creates pressure by clogging the middle stopping the run game and puts instant pressure on the QB limiting his timing on 1st to 3rd options. The Saints will 1st take Murray out the game then that take Larry Fitzgerald out, because they're won't be any balls to catch if the QB can't make the throws. The front middle run will be stuff by congestion in the middle. The only logical advantage for Arizona is if the Cardinals attack the sides of New Orleans defense. Attacking the sides limits some players out of the play.

New Orleans will maintain Chase Edmunds, as he's a dangerous runner on the sides when given space.

For New Orleans Offense, starting Drew Brees will be a simple game plan, very similar to last week's pass/run combo. Look for Brees to go with simple quick 12-15 yards inside slants and the hard run game. Watch Brees will "welcome a hard run game from Latavius Murray". Brees will hand off or play-action to/from Murray confusing the Cardinals defense.

Look for Brees to go 23-31 passing with 254 yards 1TD

Latavius Murray to get 20-25 carries for 128 yards with 3 TD's.

Saints win 34-10! Saints dominate!
