Jared is more disappointing than Coby Fleener was.

When I saw him catch that and the defender in the trail position, I knew he would fumble.

Guy needs to go, along with Anzalone too.

When Cook dropped the ball holding it like a loaf of Bunny bread, my dad and I looked at each other and said, "it's over."

I don't know how a talented team like the Saints with depth at every position can underperform like this. I look at Sean Payton and I see a man who has been getting out coached and out prepared in the playoffs since 2010 - the year after we won it all. It's 2021.

When the offense couldn't finish after Deonte basically put them in the red zone, I knew it would be a long night...

The offensive line had it's issues. 3rd down defense was not up to par. Anzlaone was targeted often and couldn't make plays in coverage. Yes, turnovers ultimately were too much for an aged Drew Brees to overcome but he didn't have much help.

Kudos to Malcolm Jenkins and Marshon Lattimore. They brought it tonight.

Where was 13? Where was 94?

Sean has nothing to do with with Cooks fumble or Brees picks

Remember the last 15 years as the Saints head into the upcoming 15 years!

Gotta be able to stretch the field in the playoffs.

I agree with Halo. Sean P is a fantastic regular season HC, however in the post season he's getting bullied and taking L's.

Priority #1 for me is to lock down Ryan Ramz and Lattimore this off season.

Brees QB rating last night: 38.1!!!

Or freaking 92? Where was the D-line in general? They should've gotten more pressure against Tampa's O-line.

I agree with all of this. Especially with stretching the field. Tampa Bay took note of what KC did to us. They played a lot more physical man coverage and when they did create that small window of opening down field, it was either a pass break up or a check down pass.

We have to get more vertical. Those seam route were critical to our offense in the past but the last 3 years they have been non existent.

Davenport caused the only sack of the game on a stunt. Clearly, he was not the problem. I will say that the media bashed the Bucs O-line so bad after the last game that they came out with fire and drive to. It let it happen again.

This list was on the entire offense. The longest play of the day, excluding the trick play was a 17 yard run by AK. That shows that offensively we did not get the ball down field.

You can’t win with turnovers and only completing 54% of your passes, especially playing short ball. It worked when he was completing +70% of those passes. We average more yard per carry than we did per pass....let that sink in.

This was not on the defense or anyone else but the offense.

Agreed. But..., Turnovers, oof. I saw a stat somewhere that said playoff teams with a -4 ratio were 1-59 in those respective games.

Re: Saints turn it over 4 times in season-ending loss to Bucs. 'That's not winning football' | Luke Johnson
 

You are not going to win any game with a -4 turnover margin. Especially when giving the ball to your opponent within your own territory. We could not capitalize on the great field position given to us by special teams. No excuse that the 4 best plays you have can’t get a TD in that scenario with the size and talent we have on offense.

I'm still depressed a week later. Damn! That was not playing winning ball!x-(
