Take them by the hand and help them understand your side.

We can't go all Peterson on people that refuse to listen.

Re: Offense

For years this offense feels out the defense for the first 2 possessions then exploits mismatches. If those mismatches are found in the 1st possession, we march down the field fairly easily those first couple of possessions. But if we can't cop a good feel in those first 2 (i.e. @ CLE), the 1st quarter offense looks rancid. I've noticed this over the years in the Payton/Brees era. However, they make the necessary adjustments in-game most of the time if the initial offensive game plan flops due to penalties, turnovers, O-line blocking (or lack thereof), being behind on the scoreboard, etc...

Has anyone else noticed this? Or am I taking Crazy Pills?

Our offense has always been good at making adjustments, that's why you see Brees and Carmichael studying the photos after a drive is done
Our offense normally gets on track even if they do begin the game struggling, example vs Miami in 2009 - brees threw 3 picks in the first half, second half we outscored the dolphins 43-8

The D look like no adjustments are being made, infuriating to watch

I know this should be just business in the NFL but some of the passes that Jimmy has ignored because they were slightly poor passes made me wonder.

i do not know about all of that but next year when Drew can redo his contract Jimmy should feel better. if he does not then Jimmy will have plenty of company.

Re: Offense

Our offenses is stale. We need something new & fresh. Has Payton become complacent?

Where did you hear Jimmy was furious? I never heard that.

Jimmy's playing some of the best ball of his career. 78% completions would indicate that not only his he not ignoring any passes but he's catching more than he ever has.
