I don't see anyone saying anything about AB but you.
|
What i don't understand is that the defensive woes have been well documented for 2 years now. Every week you act as if it's some big surprise that they suck. With no real improvements what made you think this year would be any different.
I will go you one better. I predict the defense will give up at least 300 yards of offense next week, and probably the week after. And AB wasn't almost flawless. When you say that kind of stuff Peyton Manning is the measuring stick, and AB doesn't compare. |
What relevance does David Carr have here? :brood:
|
What DOES David Carr have to do with anything?
|
The whole team lost the game and just because it's not wholly AB's faults does not mean it was not partly his fault. The ref's may have made mistakes but the Saint's lost plain and simple.
|
Have been here all along, don't think you noticed me until now. Wow, what a surprise, my wife did'nt think it took anyone long at all to notice me.
|
Special teams, and piss poor clock management lost this game for us.
|
Special teams and turnovers did it to us again. Since AB was brought into this thread, why is it he can be 98% accurate one week and should be riding the pine the next? Why can't he play like this every game? Yeah our defense could have done better and they actually did in the end forcing a long Field goal try. The field goal was wide but penaltiy gave them another shot. Defense did well today other than craft, and offense did well today other than turnovers. Special teams blew. Smith is the back that Duece should have been but maybe it's too early to say that.

This thread is funny. I am pissed about the stupid calls at the end, but we lost cause we gave 21 points to the Falcons they didn't have to earn. Our defense played GREAT. At halftime they had only allowed 3 points had gotten an INt, and had sacked Vick a couple of times. The Falcons got one TD off a fumble return, and one off a blocked FG. They got another TD after Brooks horrible ass pass behind Devery in the midst of three defenders. I was at the game. If we don't give away those points, we win, plain and simple. 13 points may be able to be pinned on the D. Yeah they suck. :roll:
|
First, our defense didn't play horrible. They actually played a pretty damn decent game. I'm definitely with you on that whodi. Except for Craft. He was a real liability yet again today. I'm ready to see him gone. Second, Brooks' INT was a horrible decision and a horrible pass. He played good today but not great. He should have been picked at least two other times, but the Falcons dropped 'em. It is another example of how Brooks makes mistakes at critical times that kill us. Say what you want but that is a damn fact. Third, it was crappy clock management. They shouldn't have called that first time out yet. There was almost 1:30 left on the clock. They should have preserved the TO and let some more clock run down. And, fourth, the refs were definitely a factor in the turnout of this game. I don't like to use that as an excuse, but it's hard to argue with it. They made poor decisions on three scoring plays in this game and if they had gotten it right on any of them the result would have been different.
|
Definitely agree with you on the clock management kevin. When they called that timeout with 1:30 left we were all like WTF? They should have let that clock run more. The Falcons defense couldn't stop our offense, the times they did the offense stopped themselves with the two turnovers. It should have at least gone into OT. But it didn't. We lost. We gave them 21 points. Not many games you are gonna win like that. I just wish we had played with the same effort in GB.
|
Defense sucks... how many mis tackles??????????
|
I dont think the defense caused the 2 turnovers for scores or the bad officiatin'......
you need a hug... |
Look the refs jobbed us. End of story. They took away Hakim's TD before halftime on a bs call that directly led to that penalty that wasn't called on the field goal we never should have had to attempt. The fumble by Smith was atrocious but he more than made up for it with his two TD's, and AB's INT in the fourth to Devery was a bad pass not a bad decision. He more than made up for it with his TD to Devery with 46 seconds left. The Defense did stop the Falcons. They held them to 250 yds and were in Vick's face all day long. The refs handed that game to Atlanta on a silver platter and if you asked Mora he would tell you the same.

Overall, the defense played good today..............but what do you expect? Aaron Brooks played good! I said it last week: the defense is only as good as Aaron Brooks is. As soon as tipped interception occured...........WHAM. Dunn takes it in untouched, on the very next play. That would have been a GREAT time to hold them to a field goal. Fortunately, Brooks rebounds...takes them the distance of the field.......and unfortunately, leaves a little too much time left on the clock. I agree wtih BlackonBlack when he says that we should have held them off for 38 seconds (although it was tough, since the Falcons had all 3 timeouts left).
Anyway, all of that being said, it should have went into overtime anyway, because the holding call was BS. Actually, no it shoudln't have gone into OT....we should have had a 14 point lead on them by that point. For those of you wondering why I so adamently predicted a Saints victory RIGHT AFTER THE SAINTS GOT BLOWN OUT (while the rest of you were throwing around crap like "fire haslett tomorrow" and "put McPhearson in now" and "we'll get the first pick in the draft")......you saw why yesterday, in their performance. I guess I failed to account for referee bias when I made my prediction. I just assumed it would be a fair game. Silly me. |
It was a bad call on the FG that allowed them to move closer and take another shot...Our WR's and RB's kept us in the game...Devery had a career day but would have been better had he not had to perform like a gymnast to make catches or slide on his but to catch the low ones...I have said it before I will say it again the guy has magic in him...we needed Horn out there to draw coverage and Smith and Stecker would have had a ton more yards...AB had a good day for AB

This game is pretty encouraging..............I'm glad they didn't give up on Hakim during preseason.....and I'm glad Henderson is starting to show up. Since the rams normally play crap defense, I look for an exciting game this upcoming sunday.. |
Until you have an argument that doesn't include Jake Delhomme, don't even bother responding to me CK1. JAke must've taken your girlfriend or something. Seriously. Someone had to make a thread earlier requestiing Jake Delhomme not be brought into it, guess who that was for. Get a clue, and get an argument besides "Well Jake did this" and maybe you will be taken seriously. But you're a one trick pony, so what else you got? Jake did this and the defense sucks. Yes you didn't answer a simple yes or no question. So i'll try again, and we'll see if you can answer without your obsession for Jake coming into play again.
Let me ask, and this will clear it up for everyone. if we don't give the Falcons 21 unearned points, hell, if we don't give them 7, do we win? Yes or no? |
What the hell does other teams turning the ball over have to do with us? I asked you a question, and you ask me one in turn, and that somehow proves your point? The fact that you are running from a yes or no answer says it all. You don't even have to offer an explanation. It's yes or no, yet you are unable to do that. Sad. Guess who leads the league in turnovers? The Saints. So to answer your question, yes other teams do have to overcome turnovers, but they don't have to overcome the most in the league.
http://www.nfl.com/stats/teamsort/NF...1=9&_3:col_1=6 So for the third time, I will ask you the same yes or no question. Let me ask, and this will clear it up for everyone. if we don't give the Falcons 21 unearned points, hell, if we don't give them 7, do we win? Yes or no? But you won't answer it, cause you are a fraud. And you keep exposing yourself. Go away. |
This would be a good time to walk away, and let the jury decide.
*hint hint* *wink wink* |

Can someone tell me what our boys' giveaway/takeaway number is thus far this season? |
Hmm, the defense did get a takeaway. The defense also forced punts. The offense just gave it away more. Seems pretty simple. 14 points from offensive turnovers. 7 points from a special teams play. 21 points unearned. Minus that we win the game. If the offense doesn't turn it over at all, we win the game. How is it that hard to understand? When your offense turns the ball over THE MOST IN THE LEAGUE, there is no reason to even look at turnover margin. Hell, the team that has created the most turnovers is Cincy. If their offense turned it over as much as ours, they would only be PLUS TWO in giveaway/takeaway. EVERY OTHER TEAM IN THE LEAGUE would be negative. EVERY ONE. there is n;t even an argument there any more. Offense stops turning over the damn ball, we win. Period.

Whodi, the guy that started this thread is sleeping with AB. He will not listen to the facts or any logical argument. All he is good for is making the blood boil, which I almost think he does on purpose cause no one can be that ignorant. I've pretty much stopped responding to his blabber but do read it time to time for a laugh. Also beware you might be in a "click".

And I would consider not responding to a thread, after I asked nicely.
You're all idiots, so move on to the next topic. I really, really, really don't want to be forced into something that I'd rather not do. This is the FINAL ****ING WARNING! |
