Tune in Sunday at 4:00 PM ET as the New York Jets take on the New Orleans Saints. Natasha Alibhai from
Heels in the Huddle will be liveblogging for your enjoyment.
Good Afternoon! You ready for a shoot out?
We are still a good 30 minutes from kick off but here are some previews
thescore.com and then a short one on my site
heelsinthehuddle.comPlayers Ruled out for week 4:
Jets - Calvin Pace LB Out Until Week 5 (suspension), Lito Sheppard CB (quadricep)
Saints - Mike Bell RB (knee), Jermon Bushrod T (knee, ankle), Kendrick Clancy DT (knee), Darnell Dinkins TE (foot)
Saints are favored by -7.5 in this one and the O/U is set at 46.5
@ftfent1 Offensively there is no question but I think some of the other undefeated teams would love to challenge that
Jets are scoring about 20 points less per outing but their defense has allowed about 7 points per game less than the Saints D
@ftfent1 He has been near perfect but this is going to be a real challenge when his best receiver is Cotchery
Still waiting on this Patriots game to end, but bring in your predictions
@Brooks that's a pretty reasonable prediction, I think Brees not getting any TD's last game we will see him back on track today
seems everyone is thinking the same thing, guess we gotta wait to see some Jets fans in here :)
@Sarah Its a regional game on CBS I think, a lot of areas getting the Cowboys game.
Start of the 1st - Saints on Offense
Sorry for the delay my TV was showing the Pats game but we are on now
Saints have gotten 2 first downs already
Ball at the 47 on their side - Brees drops it to P Thomas for a gain of about 8
3rd and 1 - Saints
Thomas with the carry and he gets 9 on the ground

Brees completes to Henderson for his first catch of the game - Pick up of 6 yards
Brees is 4/4 already
2nd and 4 - SAINTS
Brees making this look easy, finds Henderson for a quick slant and a completed pass for a 1st down
1st and 10 - Thomas with the carry and a gain of 2 but there is a flag on the play
Holding call on the Saints as they march back 10 yards
