Please calm down!

It's one game, no one expected us to go undefeated. All the negative talk makes us look like bandwagon Falcon fans.

There is nothing wrong with calling it like you see it and that has no bearing on your fanhood. Our defense and coaching was awful last night.

Step away from the internet people.

Step away from the edge.

LOL. I thing the ridiculous part is the none sense people are spewing. Waiting to hear someone blame the guy at the stadium who sold hot dogs.

I agree 100%, but we have people wanting to dismantle the entire defense after losing a week 1 game. It's week 1, against one of the best offenses in football.

I'm calm, thought it was a good game. GB might be the best team we play all year. But I still have to point out our d. What is going on still can't tackle, players out of position. Now we did have excellent coverage on some plays, and just didn't get the breaks on them. Our lb's outside of Vilma, no words there. Just making out some points.
WE will be fine, not worried about our season. I just would like to see the D play a little better that's all.

I think we will have a successful season no doubt. But our defense couldn't stop them for most of the game, and thats a fact. I'm afraid the D will be our Achilles heal this year, thats just the way I see it so far.

The good news is that we had expectations of an improved defense this year.

In past years our expectations for the Saints were that they could successfully board the bus or plane and make it to the city they were supposed to play in. So we have come a long way but are victims of our own wishes and desires for their success.

Reality sucks, and the reality is that Aaron Rogers placement of his passes were unbelievable, and that our defensive line is not where we thought it would be with the additional players we picked up.

It is only one game, but the defense still sucks.

Besides Rodgers and his offense, I only see one other QB that can do that to our D. Wait for it.... Wait for it.... Matt and the Texans.
