Actually he is more like 5'10 but whos counting. If remember correctly we applied pretty good pressure on him in 09 when we beat them. I honestly think our secondary is going to have its hands quite full Sun night.

5'10"? How you figure that? You're right about the pressure in 09'. and yes our DB's will be busy....all day

Drew Brees measured in at 6'-1/8" at the combine.

You man him up with Claiborne, provide safety help with Heath and assume he's been sufficiently erased.

the best plan ever, assume. im for it.


heres our game plan, so listen up, it will be repeated Sunday, get our butts whooped. And with that, moaning and groaning that night.

do you just double him and TRY to take him out of the game? He, IMO, is really their only threat! What's your defensive plan?

first off - I have Jimmy Graham on my fantasy team so I am hoping from monster game out of him but Dallas still wins. Second - Dallas has zero chance of covering him. They have trouble with TE coverage and this guy (graham) is on another planet at that position. This game will be a shoot out.

Cook is actually their best receiver now.

I agree and I would consider him a role player. Teams don't game plan for Terrence Williams and Co, we shouldn't do the same. Stars get game planned around, not role players!

We let him run free all over the field with a safety giving chase about 10 yards away until he wears himself out.

I like the put dez on him idea, at least from 25 yards out or less.

Figuring out how to contain Graham is really a moot point if ultimately we can't get any pressure on Drew Brees.

If he has the time to stand in the pocket all day then he'll pretty much tear us up like he normally does.
