Watching Talib (Pats QB) shut down Graham (Saints TE)...

[DeletedAccount]

Talib is a physical QB, but I don't think any CB is in Browner's league as far as toughness goes. With the league's proliferation of prolific TE's and our recent struggles against them, why don't we start thinking about employing a similar strategy? I don't want to see Graham in Seattle matched up against our LB's in some soft zone!

You will see every team try to put their biggest CB on Graham after that game.

I would agree, when playing teams with a great TE Browner should man up on him and send Thurmond out wide.

Indeed. I think the Saints got somewhat exposed today.

They are from New Orleans though, so when they get exposed you know damn well they be getting some beads.

2 things that have been a problem for NO haven't been as apparent to the naked eye; they can be run on pretty easily (Hasn't been much of a problem since they have lead most games: they are front runners) and there ability to run the football isn't very reliable.

When the weather gets colder and if they have to leave the Superdome in January, they could be in some trouble.
