Just 0-1
That's it.
Turn the page and get back to work.

Remember the 2003 NE Patriots lost to Buffalo
31-0 to open the season.

Then came back and won the Super Bowl.
So it can happen.

Re: Just one game.

I don't think anyone deny's that. I think the problem to is that the AFC is far more better than NFC teams now, that we'd end up in the SB representing the NFC but put us up against the top 5 or so AFC teams and we'll get beat.

Well that's depressing. I suppose I should stop watching now since I know that the Saints will lose in the Superbowl.

Come on... put the top 4-5 AFC's against any NFC team you want. You tell me who is going to win out of the NFC? Look at who's won the SB in recent years... hmmm.

Re: Just one game.

I can understand what Ice is coming from. What's the point of us even watchin only to get embarass in the Big Dance. No one will ever give the Saints the level of respect until we win the whole thing. For now, I can only wait until 9/16. They got plenty of time to get their act in gear.

Re: Just one game.

Why are people talking about the superbowl? In the words of Jim Mora, "PLAYOFFS?!?!"

Let's talk about Tampa. I'm worried about what a marginally decent QB (Garcia) can do with the Galloway/Stovall/Clayton/Boston/Hilliard poo-poo platter because if you didn't notice, Chris Simms is a poor QB. I'm not sure the D can stop Caddilac, either.

If Smith can't take a rookie in his first game, what's he going to do against Petitgout?

And thanks to Peyton and Dungy, there's now a three hour instructional video on how to shutdown the Saints using the Tampa 2.

If the team can't run on Indy, how are they running on Brooks and Co.? Can Brown handle the rookie?

I just hope the Team isn't buying the BS that the NFC South is the worst division in football. Carolina sucks, but that's personal. Atlanta is probably in better hands with Vick gone and there's not exactly a lot of tape to study on the Petrino-led Falcons. Tampa is going to surprise a lot of people, too. Garcia's not washed up yet. We're in a dog fight (excuse the pun) and the other three teams in this division smell blood at the top.

Re: Just one game.

I understand what you're saying. Especially after last nights debacle. The Colts were unquestionably the best team on the field last night but since it was the first game of the season I wont throw the whole thing away until I see more of the Saints.
I believe that the Saints will work out the kinks and get better as the season goes on. If I thought that this season is hopeless I wouldn't be able to watch.

It was a game against the defending superbowl champions and the Colts indeed looked like champions. The Saints looked horrible but they'll get better.

Re: Just one game.

Really, we didn't look good in one area (except Weathford) but it still only counts as one loss

let's not panic just yet

Let's talk about Tampa.
I like it........PLAYOFF!?!?!?! You want to talk about PLAYOFFS? PLAYOFFS? Let's talk about either how bad the offensive game plan sucked or how to improve against Tampa. PLAYOFFS?!?! You can't talk about PLAYOFFS!
