Can't say it much better:
"We know we're a good team. We're 4-5, but we're a scary 4-5," cornerback Keenan Lewis said, according to The Times-Picayune.

Saints players show mixed emotions: Were 4-5, but were a scary 4-5 - ESPN

Cheer up fans.

6-1 the rest of the way!!!

Yeah they scare me with how bad they are at closing out games.

"A scary 4-5"? Is that a testimonial to just how good under-achieving can be?

Cripes...

Agree. Then the last 2 minutes a depressing one.

Teams we play the rest of the year will game plan more to keep the games close because of our collapsing in clutch time

So how does one game plan to keep the games close? That's just crazy talk. I know we've struggled closing games this season (to say the least) but I am certain there isn't anyone on our schedule looking to "keep it close w/ the Saints so we can beat them in the last seconds" mentality.

I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you!

Cincy Baltimore and @ Pittsburgh will be as tough or tougher than San Fran was. We better be ready or they'll kick our freaking teeth in.

You are so clever.

I don't agree completely, but then I don't disagree either.

I'm so confused...

So many of you here are better talent scouts than I am. I go a lot on feel. Vibe. Karma (lol).

Still, having been unable to watch most of the games this year due to my divorce (our games and other team's games too), I'm in 2nd place in my pick league with a record of 97-48, picking straight up. My point being that there must be something - some credibility to my approach. It ain't just luck.

I can't get it out of my head that this team, our team, is about to go on a run. The evidence for it isn't clear I confess, but I can't convince myself otherwise. I smell trouble for our next 3 opponents. I can't justify it really, or maybe I'm just too lazy to try. My gut tells me we are exactly where we're supposed to be - that THIS team needed all this drama...all these close, heartbreaking loses.

We're going to come together. We're going to win the division. I'm going to stop short of predicting we win it all - too many variables - but we're a dangerous team, and I think our guys are about to recognize that they've had enough and that they have all they need, right now, to change their collective fortune.

Don't believe me?

Hide and watch...
