The Saints have not won against the Broncos since 1994. What do you think the Saints will need to do to win the game on Sunday?

Stop me if you’ve heard this answer before: we need to contain Von Miller. Like I said, we actually have a very good offensive line. Terron Armsted is one of the best LTs in the game, and PFF ranked Zach Strief as the best RT through the first half of 2016.

But Armstead may miss the game with a knee injury, and Strief, for all he does well, struggles with speed rushers.

I expect Sean Payton to take a run-heavy approach to the game, which means plenty of TE double-teams for Miller and the rest of the d-line.

If the Saints can have success on the ground, we should be able to put some points on the board. On the other side of the ball, I’d say the same thing.

The Saints need to win at the line of scrimmage. If Cam Jordan, Nick Fairley, and newly returned Sheldon Rankins can get after Siemian, we’ll have a game.
