Drew Brees: The plan is to play on Sunday

Saints coach Sean Payton said he might not decide until Sunday whether quarterback Drew Brees plays on Sunday against the Cardinals.

Crazy he had surgery just after week 2.

On one hand, I'd love for both him and Kamara to play Sunday since I have Kamara in fantasy, and maybe they're feeling pressure for potential home field/first round bye battle with 49ers, Packers, Seahawks, Vikings...but if they could beat Arizona without them they have the bye next week to get them another 2 weeks to get fully ready.

Pats schedule is tougher than the 85 Bears and 00 Ravens, I just looked at them. Facts, not opinions.

through 7 games the 2000 ravens opponents would finish the season with 49 wins total or an average of 7 per team. Do you really think that the teams New England has played will total 49 wins this season? The Patriots oppontents so far are on pace to win less than 25 games combined, counting the jets twice.

The Ravens gave up more points to Jacksonville in their game, than the Patriots have given up through 7 games.

You stretching bro.

That had nothing to do with what you said. You said their schedule was harder when thus far it clearly has not been.

It is harder. You projected some nonsense. I was stating facts.

85' Bears through 7 games opponents had an end of season win % of .492
85' Bears through the regular season faced 7/16 opponents with 10 or more wins. Including the playoffs they would go 9-1 against 10+ win teams.

The ravens had a bit of an easier overall schedule of .428 for the 00' season, but that is pretty middle of the pack. New England and San Fransisco have both had historically easy schedules through the first 7 games. .273, and .283. New England is off to a great start defensively, but its a huge stretch to say they have had an equal strength of schedule to a 15-1 team that beat 9 10+ win teams in a single season. Regardless of strength of schedule this is probably the 2nd or 3rd best team New England has ever had and has the potential to go down as one of the top 10 teams of all time. Something important to note when talking about strength of schedule is point differential as well. Can't ignore the fact that they are absolutely destroying the weak teams they face.

There would be no argument if people would just say 'one of the best defenses ever' but the homers gotta shit up the thread by jumping straight to best ever.

There would be no argument if people stuck to the facts. I did the work, the Patriots schedule has been harder. All the doubters want to point to end of year because they are dumb and lazy, credit to me for being neither.

This is the best defense ever to start a season through 7 games. They have given up 27 points through 7 games. It’s not even close. They have scored more points than they have allowed. THE BEST. Facts, not opinions.

77' falcons gave up fewer points in 7 games.

They also gave up fewer points per game than the 2000 Ravens.

I've got the perfect award for someone who cares about the first 7 games of a NFL season.

Right? In Uber's own words this is all just the pre-season anyway.

Never even heard of them. Unreal season. I stand corrected. Everyone in this thread should aim to be a man like me, in the rare event I am wrong, I acknowledge it. Credit it to me.

You did no work. Ravens opponents had 109 wins in 2000, Patriots scheduled opponents currently on pace for 96 wins, and I was rounding up whenever possible. Facts, checkmate. Patriots schedule easier by far.

I can say that the Ravens opponentsmost definitely did not have 109 wins through 7 games. You’re dumb Merrith, good guy, but low IQ. I did the work, I looked at all the schedules and results. The Patriots have had a tougher road through 7 games. These are the facts. Dumb people still don’t understand, still talk about a full season.

Don’t be dumb, be like me.

Fennin · Oct 23, 2019

The 77' falcons is an anomaly of sorts in the league, they had a defense so good they only allowed 9.2 pts per game(NFL record) but had an offense that only produced 12.8 pts per game. They were the best defense in the league in 1977 and gave up only 231 yards per game, the joke was their offense only produced about 231.8 yards per game. They went 7-7.

I said their opponents had 109 wins in 2000, telling me I'm low IQ but you can't even manage basic reading comprehension. Whole season champ. And it's even worse because you can't even do the math for only 7 games. Through 7 games the Patriots opponents have had only 12 wins. The first 7 opponents for the 2000 Ravens had 22 wins combined through week 7.

Thank goodness not all Pats fans are as stupid as you.

Holy shit. All of you arguing about this are gigantic faggots.
