The Saints haven't allowed 100 yard rusher in 29 straight games

The last time Zeke played them he had 75 yards. They will be amped to shut zeke down. There will be alot of emotion on the field this sunday. Their offensive line is very good but do is ours. With Quinn our d line is good but sonis theirs. We need to win in the trenches this Sunday night.

They will not shut Zeke down this time. Let them try, then the passing game will burn them. Then if they back off the LOS, Zeke will get his yards.
We now have a very good WR group, Witten is back, he can find those open spots. Dak may need to use those this game.
We also have Zeke and Pollard, and I expect an Olawale big play too. Weapons galore and they can't cover them all.

Our OL versus their DL will be key, just as our D needs to keep Kamara in check.

I hope they commit to zeke and we hit em over the top for tds

but for goodness sake dont go out there and try to PROVE you can get 100

play smart and hit em where it hurts

I like it that we don't have to depend on our running game to win, but is important to be successful there.

The saints defensive line is good. For sure

I will say though that the offensive line we played with against the Saints last time, is nothing like this time.

Our starting offensive line for the last time we played the Saints had Cam Fleming, Sua Filo and Looney. All playing due to injuries to the starters.

I feel like Zeke could be the first 100
Yard rusher soon.

 

[ItzKelz]

I settle for a combined rushing total of over 100 yards

So a few quick questions:

-What does that say about their run defense?
-What might be more of your game plan for this matchup?
-What kind of plays would you shy away from in this game?
-What kind of game plan would Garrett come up with if he was running the offense regardless of this knowledge?

The Saints are going to want us to play this close to the vest and pound Zeke. Keep the game close and shorten it up. This way their backup QB doesnt have to win it for them.

Our game plan should be to come out guns blazing and get our points up. Then come back with the running game later. Make them play catch up, which they dont want to do.

 

[ItzKelz]

For the record the Saints are 25th in rushing defense this season.

Streaks end and between Zeke, Pollard and that Offensive Line it just might do it. It will also depend a lot on the passing game, if they can put enough fear into the Saints defense to keep them from stacking the box it will help a ton.

The C and entire left side was back ups. And didn't Martin also have his knee concern at he time. Then there was Collins that most fans didn't want there anyway.

Now the entire OL in tact, though Martin has his back issue, and some think Williams is still a reliability.

 

[TWOK11]

Misleading stat, they haven’t given up 100 yards to any one back but have given up well over 100 yards total many times.

 

[glimmerman]

Won’t make it 30. Elliot will do it.

If you listen to the Zeke homers he will rush for 375 yards tomorrow night, no matter who the opponent is.

 

[Bullflop]

This time around, New Orleans will have Zeke, Kamara and Dak to contend with in disallowing an offense to succeed. Tough task, methinks!

Doesn't mean they havent given up 100 yards on the ground.

 

[T-RO]

As long as we have situational success running the ball, I'm fine with it. Short yardage and goal line. We shouldn't need +120 rushing yards to win this game.

They've given up over 100 yards rushing in each game this season.

That's nowhere near as good as they played last year
