Game Thread: Week 6 Patriots vs Saints

[NEhomer]

Surprised to see us a 2.5pt favorite on this one. I'd be inclined to take Brees and the two and a half at this point. Of course, it has STAY AWAY written all over it!

 

[TKO]

Things Brady has never done:

Beaten Brees, he's 0-3

 

[Drawmeomg]

I won't be at all surprised by a loss and won't be very surprised by a blowout loss in this one. The game's winnable but I don't see how the Patriots could possibly be favored.

pats will slaughter the saints and put little breezy and sean peyton in their place.

how did you get a green thread AND a sticky homer??

 

[JDM]

I did it.

 

[BostonFan]

Going to be a tough game for the Pats. I can see the D staying pretty strong but they are going to let some points up and then the offense just has so many question marks. In the end it will be close but I see the Saints winning. Sad to say.

 

[briz almighty]

gronk might not play. sources saying he still not cleared yet or something. this is a total load of horse manuer. i was fully expecting gronk to be back this week and the offense to be at its best now if hes out again we will probably see the same bumbling offense we seen so far. cant play a team like the saints with a disfunctional offense, too much pressure on the defense they cant save us every game, especially against an o like saints. not liking our chances now. gronk opens our whole offense up, cant double dola or a wr and gronk at the same time. without a te threat everyone else gets swarmed. i dont like playing top teams injured, it annoys me to no end. they win and they think they better but they probably lose if we healthy like baltimore last year. what a joke.

We do not need Gronk to play once in the regular season to win the division pretty handily. We need him in the playoffs. Until then, sit him as long as is needed.

yea probably but theres gunna be alot of whodat fans that will be chirping after they win with gronk out. its a pride thing. saints one of the top teams you want to beat the best for bragging rights. same with denver we want to beat them badly cuz the media is gushing all over them.

Seriously? This is not an easy win this yr. Not sure how you can say that.

 

[JDM]

Yes it is. I expect to win by 3-4 games. No one wins more than 9.

Ridley is probable. He'll play Everybody gets a few plays, best runner gets the most touches.....

I think Ridley plays and does good. After what we saw last week, he has to be better. My question is, does Blount find the doghouse this week? Prob not.

 

[Kid Vicarious]

Good luck today guys! I hope Ridley produces some yards for yall (Geaux Tigers!).

 

[Brahmsian]

Which means he's overdue for a win.

GO PATRIOTS!

 

[Dude]

Hopefully the offense will show up today. The defense will have their plate full, that is for sure.

 

[Brahmsian]

!0-7 Patriots now!

EXPAND THE LEAD, DON"T SIT ON IT!

 

[Southieinnc]

Brady 10-13, Dobson 5-6. Good chemistry brewing!

 

[Southieinnc]

Get the stop!!!!!
