Hard to blame Brees when he went 30-48 for 355 yards. No way he should attempt 50 passes a game.

Agree that Peat should be playing and am most disappointed he wasn't in shape...

This was the first game. Many new faces in new places. This team will look very different in 4 weeks.

That said the play was uninspiring by the following:
Colston
O line
D line
Secondary

Good news:
We have a kicker

I totally agree with you there if hes throwing 45-50 times a game we are gonna lose 9 out of 10

Brees was noticibly less accurate today which is alarming because the offensive line is noticably better this year than last.

even though more penalties than usual were called on the secondary I must say I was pleased with the secondary.

Swann played extraordinary
Breaux too physical
Browner as expected
KV played great up on the line and man to man/ need to improve in tackling and zone coverage
Bush was playing well til injury

Out of the 307 yds yielded about half of those yards were covered by linebackers

It was the 1st game of the year. Stop.

Colston don't look like he have that passion or hunger anymore. It's time for him to let it go

You can't know everything from one game, but you can draw a lot of pretty solid impressions. Football is not a 162 game season. You don't get to just settle in to the season as you go along. There's a very short time to get it together.
