Agreed. I'll take it as long as the chains are moved. The three and outs don't cut it. And multiple third and longs make it a long night.

We don't have the personnel to do anything but dink and dunk. Drew still has it(deep ball)..........but only two or three times a game. West coast baby!

Excellent seats.

Wow, Darstep, I didnt realize this before, but I just
noticed you're one of our old time fans.

I sat in 500 for the Tampa Game.
My first time back in the Dome since '13.
Even though the game sucked, I had a blast in NOLA.
500 is weird. Im used to sitting in 600.
In 500, there is considerably less swearing, very little fighting, and no one vomits.

I don't know if that is true. I mean under that logic you could say the same thing about Amristead. I think the idea is to bring guys along at a certain speed that allows the to be successful. You don't want a guy to lose confidence. Armistead took over later in the season and that was because chuck was bad bad, i mean way worse than strief. So I just am not sure it is a reflection of his skillset. Armistead sturggled in his initial start

How weird is that?
There was a fight above us in 600 about midway through the 3rd qtr.
Too many people standing and rubber-necking to really know what happened.
Somebody probably had too many and started playing the dozen.

One win and everyone thinks we're on our way? They haven't done anything yet. 1, count em, 1 win. Lets see what we can do in a couple more weeks. If we can get to 3-3 then we've got a chance to do something.
