Wanna vomit...again?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I'm not surprised that they don't think we have faith in our kicker. We kept 2 kickers for a good portion of the season. Let them doubt us....we thrive under pressure and doubt....

I'm not sure if it's just perception but it seems like there's been a lot of missed field goals this year.

Are you serious? This is "Why they won't win"?

There have been a lot of kickers that have missed kicks this year and Hartley is hardly the worst offender. And I'm sure our coaching staff has figured out the Bushrod needs help against more elite pass rushers.

The reason I think we might not win?: Poor run defense and our offense getting off to a slow start. And to me those to go hand in hand. If we get off to a fast start teams aren't going to exactly going to grind it out on the ground. If we stall out the gate teams will run it to keep us our offense on the sideline.

I think we'll come out guns a blazing next Saturday at who and whatever happens to be in the way and I'm not sure if there's a team to stop it.

WHO DAT!!!
Bushrod was figured out after Shockey went down. Shockey comes back and he can help out on that side, so ...

Re: Wanna vomit...again?

I blame Nostradamus, and the Mayans 2012 predictions! Maybe it was O.J.? I don't know. What I do know, is that we have basically two weeks to get healthy, get rested, and ready for whoever comes to town. People can blame it on whatever, but playing the blame game, never got anyone anywhere. The rest, will be a MAJOR help for this team guys. Watch and see.

1. Hartley has missed ONE, I repeat ONE, kick under 55 yards the entire time he's been a Saint. Granted it was a high profile kick, but heck, I'd rather have him over Suisham any day.

2. Bushrod will be better now that Shockey is back and we can dedicate Dave Thomas to giving him help, rather than having him fill Shock's role as receiving TE. Plus Shock is no slouch blocking, either.

Yup. I said the exact same thing a couple of days ago.
