To be fair, if the Fins play the way they did last week(albeit all the injuries) it will be tough to win. Having Wake and Solai back even on a limited basis is huge for the Fins.
I thought Ryan was rather objective during the game with his comments. He is more objective than most. Still to say we have no chance is ridiculous. Apparently he didn't see the preseason game.
My analysis..
The saints cannot run the ball and we have not proven that we can stop the run yet. This will cancel out.
Our run game is getting better each week. It think it cancels out.
Our passing game is underestimated...we have the better WR's, and the saints passing game is very good especially to the TE and short throws.
Our special teams are clearly better and our coaching staff has made huge adjustments at halftime that stopped our opposition cold in the second half of all three games.
If we can keep it close in the first half and not allow the Saints to open up the game, we have a very good chance.
We need to go in there, take the opening kick off and score. Stay aggressive with the throw setting up the run.
Just my .02
Bam! I agree!
