NFL pundits are having a real difficult time giving the Saints any credit today. It's more about poor GB than about what the Saints successfully accomplished to get this shellacking done. Same as always, really.

Let us stay under the radar.

Charlie Weis definitely gave the Saints credit for the win this morning on NFL Radio. He praised both the defense and Winston's decision making.

This was a rhetorical sarcastic somewhat amusing question... I think we all know his background. XM radio is not a source this peasant in Mandeville relies on.

Understood. XM has been a must for me for many years. Probably twenty years or so, if not longer.

What I love about the NFL Radio channel is that its only affiliation with the NFL is that it is their subject. Unlike the NFL Channel on TV which is owned by the NFL, everyone on NFL Radio is employed by SiriusXM which is owned by Liberty Media Corporation. Unlike NFL Network, they are free to share all the criticism they wish of the NFL. The guests are mostly local beat writers and others not associated with the NFL directly. Great info!

And underestimating a sound defensive ball club. Good depth on the Dline, sound corners and a plethora of linebackers who have closing/sideline speed.

I even saw Pete Werner rotating in at LB late in the game.

I checked NFL.com after the game looking for highlights. The only thing posted on the front page was an article about Jordon Love making his NFL debut. Nothing about the actual game or the Saints. When I scrolled down there was a tiny link buried in with a bunch of other stuff.

There has been some, but most coverage I’ve heard and seen has been along those lines...”What happened to Rodgers?”....”Was this because of his attitude and actions?”...”Why wasn’t Lefleur prepared?”....”Should the Packers be worried?”. Very little credit given to the team.

I say good. Screw em’. Keep flying under the radar and don’t eat the cheese!
