How so? The Giants or Falcons shouldn't care that he said that. The only team that should take offense would be the Lions, and that was probably by design.

Bree's is the single Season record holder for passing yards
The Saints are 8-0 at home this year
The Lions defense is ranked 23rd in the league and been giving up over 400 yds per game over the last few games.
What do you think?

I vote yes, the cornerbacks for Detroit are horrible. I give them .0001 % chance of winning

We should split prep between the three teams, but focus more heavily on the Saints and Falcons, as we've already played the Giants.
A conservative approach would be to prepare evenly for all three possible opponents until after this weekend. But if you feel good about the Saints winning and feel you can risk preparing less for this week on another opponent, then..
I'd say the focus should be something like: 50 percent New Orleans, 30 percent Atlanta, 20 percent New York.

Their secondary is decimated with injury. The DL is going to have to make plays for Detroit to win and I just don't see it. Stafford, if pressured, will not be able to beat the Saints at home.

Suh has disappeared since his suspension, too. That doesn't help either......

i would say 50-40-10. NY is not that important to look at right now, other than some pierre paul and cruz stuff.

Obviously they've changed some since we played them, but harbaugh has already game planned for the Giants this year. He wouldn't have to do as much work as he would if planning for a new team. It's highly unlikely both the falcons and lions win, so it's a pretty safe bet to spend 2 weeks planning for the saints, and maybe a refresher of the giants.

lions will win this game
lions are ranked 22nd in D without having suh houston and delmas for a stech of thr year (best pass rusher, #1 CB and best saftey)
saints are ranked 30 in there defense and have no defenseive answer for the lions WR especially CJ
lions have the best pass rush defensive line in nfl meaning they can put 7 guys in coverage while rushing only 4 guys
(this will lead to a couple of brees int)
and since running is off the table for both teams both teams will expect more passes meaning less guys in bo meaning more eople in coverae
saints will score about 27
lions will score 38

i actually think detriot can win this game. their offense is just as explosive as NO. it could come down to who gets the ball last. i still would put money on NO, but DET has a good chance imo.
