Now we complain because "we didn't run enough" "it wasn't a quality win" "the glass is half full" "the glass is half empty"
"so and so is a wasted draft choice" I'll enjoy the 5 - 0. Thank You!

Very happy with this team. But damn can we please run the ball for at least one game? Not complaining just want to see us take the pressure of Drew

Once you experience the best and you know your team has the potential and all the pieces to be the best you expect the best. We have been to the promised land. Its not like the 80's and just getting to the playoffs is good enough. You have to always strive to achieve more than you already have.
In our case the next level is dynasty. 3 or 4 Super Bowls.
That being said you can expect the best but still enjoy the ride.

Re: Yea we are 5-0 and all BUT....

Isn't anyone concerned about the Red Zone and the fact that we're in the bottom 3rd in the league right now? I mean by game 5, you'd think the kinks were worked out in this offense. When I see two turnovers that we only come away scoring field goals on, it worries me. Against stronger opponents, it will definitely keep them in striking distance if the team doesn't score TD's.

Totally agree. This needs to get fixed along with the o-line / run game.

Re: Yea we are 5-0 and all BUT....

I have nothing to answer to your "but..."
Nothing.
Nada.
Zip.
Zero.
Cero.
(Spanish for zero.)
Saints are 5-0
and this is how we feel.
Enjoy today and worry about next week's game next week.
Yes, NEPats are tough , but Saints whooped them before.
Every team is tough here on out. Saints are tough too. Other teams are thinking, "Oh no, not the Saints. Any team , but them. Why not Goodell do something like say no Catholic teams or names with a religious conotation and fire Payton , LOL!!!"
About 1/4 of the season is over and 5-0 is really good.

BUT... according to Dolphin bloggers, we should have sat our starters when we were up 26-10. VERY CLASSLESS WIN!

Bring on the whiners ... especially if they are Pats fans. I love it when our opponents fans whine. I'll have some Kleenex ready for them.

Re: Yea we are 5-0 and all BUT....

I have no complaints. We ran the ball, played great defense got a big lead and honestly I felt like that game was over at halftime.

The only semi-downer is I made a preseason bet with a loudmouth Panthers fan I know that the Saints would be a top-10 defense and all those garbage time yards won't help the tally.

Kenny Stills had a very bad drop toward the end of the game. That was irritating.
