Observations from the Saints' loss to Carolina

I'm late because I was traveling yesterday. I had to listen to the game on siriusXM. But nice to have that option, as WWL doesn't reach Georgia. I didn't understand why SP kept trying the same crap that wasn't working on offense. Seems like once it was clear that normal three step drop or handoff wasn't working, he should have thrown Taysom in there with some run/pass option to loosen up the defense.

Wouldn’t have mattered who was at QB. The play of offense line was offensive. Even the few plays Hill contributed with weren’t great. We couldn’t run and we couldn’t pass.

Defense did okay with having so many key starters out but they could have played a lot better as well.

I think being on the road for over three weeks is also starting to get to them.
