I haven't made the time to watch a whole lot of NFL outside of the Chiefs this year, so I knew the Saints were rolling to an extent, but was floored when I switched over and saw the rape clinic they were putting on.

Should be fun to watch down the stretch.

Dude, shut the **** up with your reactionary bullshit.

Nope.

They are close, but I'm taking the Eagles bc their defense is so good and they picked up Ajayi.

Their defense is loaded with good players all over the place.

-Timmy Jernigan+Fletcher Cox is the best interior duo in the league. 6 combined sacks and elite caliber run defense from both.
-Their pass rush has 4 guys on the edge who are are 5+ sack guys. Vinny Curry (3), Brandon Graham (5), Derek Barnett (2.5) and Chris Long (3). These guys would each have 7 or more sacks but they rotate these guys a lot to stay fresh.
-Malcolm Jenkins is a top shelf safety.

Their CB's are probably the best in the league too. Jalen Mills has played very well, as has Patrick Robinson and rookie Rasul Douglas.

Eagles are the top team

Saints are playing really good football, and the qb and coach have Super Bowl Experience.

This team will win the NFC South and be a very tough out in the playoffs.....

Well, it's still early. Anything can happen to derail a nice season.

This is fair.

The top-ranked run defense is a huge factor in their favor in this matchup.

Holy shit I forgot about some guys they might get back. In addition to Jalen Mills, Patrick Robinson and Rasul Douglas, they are getting back Ronald Darby and maybe Sidney Jones.

Man that team is loaded.

Another flash in the pan NFC south team taking advantage of a last place schedule and major injuries to contenders while gearing up to lose the super bowl to the Pats or Steelers.

Brees, yes. Payton's a real jackass though.

Flavor of the week.

They look good and winning 7 in a row is impressive, I don't care if you play the Browns 7 straight weeks. However, they have lost to the 2 best teams on their schedule thus far. Yes that was week 1 and 2, but it is what it is. I would still go Eagles at this point

Sneer all you want, but you're probably one of the numbskulls who labeled this the best (or top 5) roster in the NFL and thought Smith was the only weak leak preventing league domination.

Then come 3 losses in 4 and suddenly everybody notices that we can't open running lanes, can't pass protect, and can't get enough turnovers any more to mask a D that gets knifed through like butter.

They are winning by an average score of 33-14.

That's not taking advantage of a soft schedule.

That's raping faces.

There's really not much to explain. If another team in the post-season scores more points than them, that will stop them from winning it all.
