^ I doubt we can ring up that many points. If we do win, it will be more like 20-17....if we can hold them to that low of a score. Our sputtering offense has yet to get it in gear, so our 30+ points per game from last year is out the window.
Saints defense and more specifically, the secondary of the saints is terrible. It's the weak point of the team.

Oddly enough the Packers defense is pretty good this year so expect Brees to continue to force the ball and for our defense to take advantage. Their o line is now shaky at best so we should see capers pressure early n often.
The X factor will be graham, as bad as the saints get its still a tough tough match up for anyone.
True, he SHOULD feast on the saints secondary. That hasn't really happened yet, we look to out of sync to even face an 0-3 team.
Remember, the saints are VERY desperate to win. Do I think that we can win, yes indeed, but it will be a tough game. Our O-line can make any NFL defensive front look good. Prior to the monday bullsh*t game, seattles d-line was not good at all. They only had 2 sacks in 2 games, averaging one per game, now they lead the NFL in sacks after only ONE game vs the packers pathetic o-line.
"If" Rodgers has time, YES, he will pick them apart like a thanksgiving turkey. If the line fails and Arod is forced to scramble it will be a tough game.
I agree that our defense has turned it around big time since 2011. Our pass rush is there and our young DB's are making plays beyond their years.
Jimmy Graham will be the thorn in our side indeed. He is a mismatch for ANY DB that we have. His height and great hands make him trouble for us. We may have to bump the hell out of that guy and hit him hard to throw off his game.
That is what concerns me most about this game.
Offensively, IF the Saints can get on track, they can hang with any team in football. If the Saints score 63 points, it won't matter if the defense gives up 64!

I think the Packers need to start their first series of the game just like they did the second half of the Seahawk game. Run the ball a few times to keep the defense honest.
