Carolina (+5) at New Orleans (12-3-17)

Recommended Posts

4:25 EST  (The A team) Joe Buck, Troy Aikman and Erin Andrews on FOX

over-under at 48 inside the SuperDome in New Orleans

 

Pivotal game in the NFC..

Carolina lost to New Orleans 34-13 in September so they need this on to have real hope of finishing first

 

Cam ('They call me Superman') Newton (211 of 350, 2,40 yards)  has alos run 83 times for 464 yards

Did you know he has thrown just 14 TDs (11 INTs)

Lets revisit our pre-draft talk about Stanfords Christian McCaffrey.

On the good side. he has caught 5 passes out of the backfield for 468 yards

On the so-so side..he has run 76 times fo just 268 yards

 

NOLA legend Drew Brees (266 of 373 for 3,028 yards) has 16 TDs and 5 INTs

They also have a RB who catches. With amazing balanced numbers.

Alvin Kamara has 546 yards on 77 carries AND 548 yards on 55 catches.

 

What makes me think this is a New Orleans rout? 

The Panthers (8-3) have won 4 in arow ...but they hadn't scored 20 points in 4 weeks..

 

New Orleans (8-3) lost to the Rams last week but I just think the Saints are super in their super dome home.

Take NOLA and give the points

This is the first time I've seen the Saints on TV this year. In a world where the guy with the most rings or the most TDs is called overrated I don't know how Drew Brees gets so many free passes for his mediocrity. And Cam just totally dodged a hit SB style (but I could see that appearing on some memes tomorrow atleast).

    • Good post.   I have thought this for at least six or so years. I thought it would have happened by now but WRs are getting paid almost like QBs now. So, you may be right. QBs are valued and having great weapons enables them to be more successful.   I also thought teams would begin to select WRs lower in the draft, the way RBs are, but that has not happened. In fact, it seems that WRs are being drafted earlier in the draft. This year, three WRs were drafted in the top 10 and at least one other was drafted in the first round.   I still think the value of WRs may drop because there are so many talented WRs coming out of college every year, but it may not happen yet.
    • I can't really debate that comparing Lynch/Shannahan to Ballard/Frank-Irsay is kind of silly because Lynch/Shannahan has had way more success. I was just trying to point out that many people only care if you win the SB and neither have. I think Ballard may have made the best move in his career when he hired Shane. How we went 9-8 last year was a miracle, a lot of it was due to coaching.
    • I see a noticeable difference after a new HC and two drafts. Ballard seems smarter just that quick. And I see our current issues on defense, and inexperienced QB the reason the playoffs are unlikely. I question the football intellect of all that expect it.  And comparing Lynch/Shanahan to Ballard/Frank-Irsay is silliness.   We are headed in the right direction finally.
