Defensive Rankings for Miami, and the Saints

[juniorseau55]

Rankings:

Saints: 7th best Rushing Defense , 6th in the league in Passing Td's allowed, 7th Rushing Yards allowed, 7th in Rushing TD's allowed, 5th in league in qb rating allowed
Dolphins: 10th best Rushing yards allowed, 11th Passing Td's allowed, 7th in league in terms of QB Rating allowed, 6th most sacks in the league as a team,


These are some of the stats that both teams have been able to achieve this season. With the Saints shutting out the Bucs, expect the Dolphins to score very little in the game.
One of the most interesting things in spite of the Saints playing great defense is that they give up a lot of yards, and they give up 7 yards a play which isn't very good for a team
that is playing great defense. This is something that the RPO may be able to exploit but base on numbers alone the Saints defense dominates in the red zone. In terms of our
running game then expect us not duplicate our efforts as the Jet's rank the total opposite of the saints in terms of defensive rushing stats. I do feel like Duke Johnson is showing
that hunger for the game that the Saints didn't face last game.

And you have to remember, before Flo fixed the defense, they were bottom of the league in everything. To get back to top 10 in this short of time is pretty awesome.

Hopefully Miami solves this Saints Defense.

The whole league is being affected by Covid as we speak.

Before we claim the Saints defense unstoppable for holding the Bucs, let's remember that almost every single receiver for the Bucs was out.

Yeah sure, they weren’t smart enough to substitute Duke Johnson for Gaskin on a 3rd and 1
Nope hope for those dopes

To be fair, let’s also remember that, with the exception of Waddle, our receiving corp is one hopscotch mishap away from sitting out the rest of the season

I want to see Waddle break some long touchdowns with a lot of YAC in this game. Think scoring on big plays is more likely than scoring from the redzone.

I hope we draft 2 young wr in 2022..

Yep. We were like 29th-31st in every category. Wild turn of events. That dam Jax loss is the stinger. But we still have a chance.

With the Saints shutting out the Bucs, expect the Dolphins to score very little in the game.

The Dolphins are capable of scoring very little against a hamper overstuffed with dirty clothes.

But styles make fights, as they say, and it is a matchup league.

Just because whatever the Saints do well on defense stifles their hated divisional opponent Bucs, doesn't mean jack against a feisty Dolphins team (we're feisty!).

And we've had the Bucs game film to dissect every nuance until Monday, and TommyLee Lewis who was cut from the Saints earlier this season.

I agree, it is not going to be a high scoring affair. One factor to consider in this game was Brady was without his top receivers: Brown - Suspension, Evans hurt after one catch, Godwin went out after 6 catches, Fournette got hurt. Their best catcher after that was Gronk who had 2 catches. The defense was not afraid of the backup wide receivers and were able to control the Bucs Offense.

On another note, I like the idea of RB's Johnson and Lindsay as the power horses in the backfield with Gaskin working in on passing situations. You could also throw in some two back options, running play fakes off of dives as all three RB's can catch.
