Which phase of the game will win it for us this time?

I think it'll take all three phases to beat the Giants. This isn't a game that one or the other will win it for us, unless the offense puts up 50. But I doubt that happens.

This.

But according to the media, it'll be Eli's heel.

If we put up anywhere over 30 points. We win, end of story.

There's no doubt that they will all contribute, but each game so far has had one unit completely stand out.


In the first two, I would say it was the passing game.
Against Buffalo, it was the running game.
Against the Jets, the defense won the game.


So basically, which unit pushes us over the edge?

All of the below:

Saints' Passing Offense
Saints' Running Offense
Saints' Defense
Saints' Special Teams

Attack Eli soon and fast, get him worring about the heel and then let the O do its thing.

All of the above, but something stands out in every game.

In order to beat the Giants, either our passing game will have to be spectacular, or our defense will have to be as stifling as in the Jets game.

I vote defense, otherwise we probably lose.
