Anybody else worried about him scrambling to convert third downs all game. We’ve seen that before over the years.

Well if we can keep a fresh rotation at end, and be smart during those 3rd and intermediate situations, potentially having a spy, we should be okay, but we have to be on alert when he is in the game

We struggle with mobile QBs. Expect him to have some success and have to find ways to mitigate it.

I think it's more likely that he gets hit so hard by Jordan or Davenport that he soils his pants in such a way that it finally lets Matty skid mark show his face in public.

Mariota is going to tear up this supposed dominat defense

quick 5 yard slants screens and crossess all game

3/5 new staters in the secondary? What can go wrong?

will have a massive amount of miscommunication on ATL pick plays. Who takes who? secondary standing still lokking at each other

Saints defensive front wont effect this game because Mariota will have the ball out quick or run designed RPOs

Jameis Winston 31- ATL 24

Even with all that. I’ll take 31-24 W week 1 any year

If Marcus Mariota trashes this defense we were nothing but posers.

We’re not posers and Mariota isn’t going to trash this defense.

We need to look as dominant against the garbage Falcons as the Bills were over the defending SB Champs. That's your baseline to see if we are for real or not. Don't give me that "division game" excuse, the Falcons from top to bottom are a bad team that we should dominate.

Lane/gap discipline and set the edges

 

[SweetT]

Mariota sucks. Not even remotely worried about that dude

The DE's keeping containment will be a big deal. I also hope DA keeps a spy in him on passing downs.

Yeah you’re right. There’s no way we can defend the Falcons’ precision passing game with the best slant routes this game has ever seen. Better than Montana and Rice! Slants will just slash us up

Don’t get me started on the RPO’s

I keep hearing the Saints struggle against mobile quarterbacks, but short of Hurts, who has beaten the Saints/given them continuous trouble? It's not mobile quarterbacks. The Saints just can't beat the Eagles, in the same way the Bucs can't beat the Saints.

Cam? Beat. Kyler? Beat. Watson? Beat. Wilson? Beat. Dak? Beat. Herbert (if you want to consider him mobile, that is.)? Beat. The only reason this team lost to Tua was because of covid, if even half of the roster was there, the Saints win that game handedly. Don't think we've played Lamar, either. I'm probably missing someone, but who else besides Hurts has given this current iteration of the Saints real trouble? And no, not Mariota from nearly seven years ago who did it against one of the worst defenses in league history. It's seriously overblown at this point.

Nope, this ain’t the same Saints D that’s gonna let a C level QB have his way to
