And our own fans think Foxworth sucks because he let up [b]2[/b] passes in preseason. I'll be he's an upgrade over any corner out there tonight besides Woodson.

I'm sitting here wondering how [b]we'd[/b] match up with either passing attack. Both Rodgers and Brees look unstoppable... [img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/wink.png[/img]

Darren Sproles looks like he was a good pickup.

[H8R]

Saints better find a way to stop ARodg and the Pack.

[H8R]

Bang, that was a shot.

[H8R]

Saints just need to weather the storm.

[H8R]

And Sproles is loose!

I timed that right... lol.

[JO_75]

Wow... at least we have ONE return tonight, I mean it was a Punt Return but that is better than all the Touchbacks we have seen.

SAINTS!!!

[H8R]

The Saints are lost on Defense....

Probably match up well with anyone. Having Reed in the backfield and depth at corner will do that. I don't think our defense can be spread out.

[lowrider]

I can't tell if it is the Saints looking bad or the Packers looking that good. Packs look unstoppable

[Crabcakes&Football]

Are the Saints D that bad, or is the GB O that good? I think it's a little bit of both.

I'm not sure about that... Chris Carr on Jordy Nelson? Not sure that's favorable for us. [img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/wink.png[/img]

Or Terrance Cody... [img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/wink.png[/img]

It looks like a track meet out there. Driver is their #4, and Cobb looks blazing fast.

What's amazing is Green Bay was the #6 seed in the playoffs last year...

Is it just me, or... does it seem that the NFC might be passing the AFC in talent?

The NFC looks good... against the NFC.

[JO_75]

Another Touchback....... boring.

[-Truth-]

Bittersweet watching Cobb. 18 has been available since Stallworth left.

[Gordo52]

Ughhhhh, packers please lose in playoffs so we do have to face you in superbowl. thanks.

Very good point - at least as far as the AFC North is concerned.

The Patriots play the same way - they were 25th in defense last year... and Brady passes every freaking play. Some games, they don't even pretend they're trying to establish the run.

[JO_75]

I wanted to us draft Morgan Burnett and I'm surprised we didn't to be the long term replacement at SS, and could have learned on the bench until Landry left this season and started for us this year.

[JO_75]

Down goes Brees!

Anyone surprised there wasn't a "Rouging the Passer" Penalty? lol.

[hawkprey]

I think this kickoff rule is going to lead to a lot of TDs. Teams spend less roster spots on good ST coverage guys.

I hate the rule change so much.

[Crabcakes&Football]

Why didn't we get Cobb?

[Token]

What a return by Cobb.

[-Truth-]

Oh. My. God. How badly do I want Cobb in purple and black right now.

[JO_75]

You guys see that play by Cobb to return it for a TD?? That was an absolute awesome play. Randall Cobb is already a candidate for Deion Sanders "Let's Go Primetime" Countdown. Fantastic play by a fantastic player.

Bingo. They need to just leave the game alone and let them play.
