New orleans cannot defend and the purple cannot score. Should be an interesting game.

reggie bush is going to absolutely KILL the vikings. fortunately for the saints, the vikings ineptitude in the passing game, will help the saints weakened secondary. however, should reggie bush line up as a DB, now that problem is fixed.

Steelers/Jaguars games are always a good tough game to watch if you like physical football. Should be interesting. I can tell you that Jacksonville is already going NUTS with Byron Leftwich's return (the #1 most hated player EVER in Jacksonville).

I am not sure about "kill" the vikings. We handle speed backs pretty well. Chris Johnson did have 2 turnovers, but that was mostly due to us turning the ball over 4 times near their redzone. His avg per yard was very low. The vikings have speedy Cb's that help contain the run on the outside and our linebackers are speed guys. I do not fear bush in the run game. I am concerned if he lines up in the slot and gets the ball in position to YAC. That has been a weak spot for us all year as long as the saints line can hold back our crazy rush.

Honestly, as painful as it is the vikings kill themselves. In the TEN game they had more yards passing, rush, waaaaay better 3rd down % but we turned it over 4 times. We literally hurt ourselves. If we stop doing that then we are a very good football team.

John Madden is officially senile. He needs to get out of the booth.

I don't see Reggie killing anyone, because I doubt we get a running lane inside all night, but he is our only real hope with outside running and swing passes. Their defense is brutally physical up front, and our offensive line isn't, so I can't see Deuce or Thomas getting anything going, but Reggie's speed gives some hope there, because they aren't overly fast.

We are down to 3 receivers, hopefully Brees gets some time in the pocket to throw downfield. If they can get consistent pressure on him, it might be done fast.

Sedrick Ellis missing is going to hurt bad when trying to stop AD.....

If the Saints bring the D heat like last week, MIN might not score. Their secondary has been covering better the past couple of weeks.
The Vikings LBs are banged up and their safety play has been bad. That should spell a breakout game for Reggie Bush.
MIN has to run early and often and force turnovers to win. I don't see it happening. We're also hitting the traditional over/under time frame for Peterson to get hurt again.

Am I the only person that finds Stuart Scott annoying? He thinks he is so sweet, but he has been using the same taglines for like 10 years....

Little tougher without Sedrick Ellis, but I like what we are doing lately up front.

Someone tell Brad Childress he has AD, and he is playing the Saints D.
