Because it is disrespectful. Especially when you consider we're on a 5 game winning streak and they're on a 3 game losing streak. Our defense is better. Our QB is better. Our skill position group is better. 

I wouldn't be shocked at all coming out of this bye week with our team thumping them by 14+. I expect them to mop the floor with them now. Looking for Walker's breakout game of 2023 in this one in particular. 

Purdy continues to show issues with ball security and if you take McCaffrey out of the equation he turns into a duck on water and a mistake or two just waiting to happen.

I expect them to try and do exactly what the Saints did. Quick hitters, easy routes over the middle, isolation attempts with McCaffrey on our linebacking core and an occasional shot or two taken deep for Aiyuk or Samuel.

I bet we'll stay disciplined like we always have this year on defense and our zone coverage looks will result in at least two interceptions off of Purdy.

He's been bad about reading zone coverages over the middle. It showed in their losses to the Vikings and Bengals. Something Oluokon and Lloyd have been excelling at this year.
