Dome Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 This sucks. He was coming on strong and pushing Okafor off the field more and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrry32 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Bad timing. I was looking forward to seeing Andrew Whitworth powerbomb him through a table and then drop the People's Elbow on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlowe22 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Well this gives us another excuse to use after we lose to the Rams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't sit here and pretend to have watched Davenport closely myself this year, but I loved him in college and these stats certainly back-up what your saying about him and Okafor on passing plays. Okafor has 8.5 pass pressures in 293 defensive snaps, while Davenport has 9 in 213 (had only 23 snaps in each of his first 2 games too). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't won a game he's reffed since 2006. He's really screwed us in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footbull3196 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 That's a shame, because it seemed like him and Jordan were a great tandem of edge rushers to start the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season it was the Saints not having Lattimore and Crawley (even though the Rams didn’t have Woods). This season the Saints don’t have Davenport. I’m not going to make anyone use that as an excuse because just like last season, nothing is wrong with the Saints offense. Last season the Saints offense barely scored 20pts against the Rams. Lattimore and Crawley has nothing to do with that. So if the Saints offense have a repeat performance this season I won’t let anyone use not having Davenport as an excuse.

And Brees>Goff when it comes to ball protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brees does generally play really well at home, and he's protected the ball well this year. But if Rams get good interior pressure, Brees is gonna have a tough time. The battle between Rams d-line and Saints o-line might be a fun one to watch. But Saints are stronger at the tackles than at the interior. I fully expect the Rams to torch our secondary. It might get ugly if our offense sputters. Do I think we can win? Sure, but I think it's gonna take a near perfect game to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
