The defense really gave up one TD. The PI call on Bush was BS. The short field on the last drive was fuled by the pick.

It just sucks that the team plays decent ball for 56 minutes and then craps out down the stretch.

It's time to start wondering if any Saints 4th quarter lead is safe. To be 2-3 after leading in the 4th quarter is distressing.

Re: Brees killed us with his INT

Man, Brees did "killed" us with that interception. He also "saved" us with that throw for the Stills. He also "killed" us with (drop in another play). He also "saved" us on the 3rd down rush.
Ad nauseum.

Brees was 2 -7, after he threw that pick he just completely fell apart. He had that look on his face that said he was done for the day. When he gets that weird look in his eyes, you know the game is over.

I thought the defense for the most part came to play and had a good week of preparation. We need to learn how to finish/destroy teams when we have a lead.

Did anyone notice how Denver kept their foot on the throat of San Fran last night?. They never let up even when up by two TDs. If we can do this moving forward, we will be fine.

Time to focus on Green Bay.

Re: Brees killed us with his INT

the guys better be pissed
the guys better come out with passion and a sense of desperation at home against Green Bay

Colston didn't even try to come back to that ball and catch or knock it out

unacceptable

They started running the football and slowing down when it was 35:10. Till then it was all about fast tempo and Peyton's passing game.

After 6 games this is what I've noticed this year. In all our losses except to the cowboys we lost those game because we couldn't finish. It's just that simple. Whether the offense didn't cap off a drive with a TD, the defense gave up a late score, The coaches made a bad playcall. We were up in the ending minutes of the Falcons, Browns and Detroit game. And while we all want to blame someone it won't matter until this team figures out how to finish games. Period

Teams that are able to finish games get there due to the grueling days at camp

All I heard our players say is how much they enjoyed training camp because it was so relaxed, there's you f'ing problem, the players have become lazy.

I don't necessarily believe that. I believe it's a mental thing. If we were getting crushed in all our losses I would agree with you but we were in winning position 3 out of 4 games. So they were lazy for only the last 3 minutes but not the other 57? They just need to dig deep and the leaders need to step up and make plays at the end of games. Whether do that or not is up to them.

That's kind of the point I was making, I worded it a little wrong

Mental toughness is gained through tough situations and overcoming them

Our training camp was so relaxed, the players have no mental toughness to come through when it really counts.
