Yea I know the line is 18 points off.
Yea Seattle has a lot of injuries in the secondary.
But the Saints lost there #1 shut down corner (top 5 in the league) in Jabri Greer last week for the season.
This line should be 3.5 or 4. Way too high. I think it'll close at 3.5 or 4. NO was sleepwalking last week, and maybe their unimpressive showing against Atlanta's playing their Superbowl last week is the reason? I really don't get the line at all, but took what I hope was the early gift of +6.
I don't doubt the decent depth to over come them but its becoming somewhat of a reoccurring problem, i mean who knows who is next and when. Since Browner was hurt already its not a real immediate impact with him but depth is depth for a reason because they aren't better then guys in front of them so always ups the chance for mistakes and simply lower quality play etc when these things happen same with having to bring new guys into fold this late in season.
I've seen many Seattle fans sort of brush off these suspensions as no big deal because the belief is the bench is better then everyone else's starters so they just step in and defense is even better. I am not so sure it is going to be that easy even though corner is def a solid position for the hawks.
Losing Greer was a big hit to the new orleans secondary and really can't be replaced by simply having next guy step in so we have our own problems in the secondary for sure.
