WTF moments against SF

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Oddly they BOTH came when I saw Courtney Roby in the endzone waiting for a kick off. Again I ask... WTF was Roby doing waiting for the ball... Obviously no thought about weather or NOT he should take it out. ...

WTF moments against SF

Oddly they BOTH came when I saw Courtney Roby in the endzone waiting for a kick off.

Again I ask... WTF was Roby doing waiting for the ball... Obviously no thought about weather or NOT he should take it out.



I also have a comment for Sean Payton... Your brilliant, I wouldn't trade you for any coach in the league..... Next year when you go up against a defense that is known for FORCING the most turnovers in the league... Make everyone on special teams and offense carry a ball all week... make the defense spend all week trying to get their balls... I mean in the shower, mall... everywhere.

We were NOT prepared for SF defense to come after the ball like that.


Other than that, we lost because of game play... wasn't the field, the wind, the 49rs.... If we had turn the ball over that many times against the Colts we would have lost... well maybe not the Colts.

Roby was a WTF moment for me too. But when we are playing MAN on San FRan's last drive was the biggest WTF moment!!!

I'm still amazed that the offense can fumble 5 times, the defense is overall, fantastic enough to actually give us a chance to be in the game, and not being superhuman enough to overcome all of the errors and bad luck (how often does a guy get knocked out on the 3 yard line), to overcome the fact that San Francisco played dirty, and has played dirty all year-long from some articles I've read, and still glean from it that the "Defense" sucked, and we need to fire Greg Williams. Seems kind of dim to me.

Your is a personal pronoun, showing possession. Your house. Your opinion.

You're is "you are." Damn.

You need to think outside the box on the Roby turn over. That one is directly related to PT going down. We couldn't risk Sproles getting injured on a KR so Roby came in rusty in a tense game.

...and fumbled TWICE in one reception. I'd have rather started inside the 5.

No thanks, not without a week worth of football catching and carrying.

Roby, being generally a good player and worthy Saint, has GOT to feel HORRIBLE today.

I am out side of the box but still on the planet.... Take the touch back... no need for ANYONE to run it out... Just as Sproles did each and every time.
