Observation From the Saints' Loss to the Giants

When we have to rush four we have a very raw rookie DE, undrafted-caliber DT’s and Cam Jordan who offers very little in the pass rush department these days.

It's mystifying. In the GB game we rushed four, sometimes even 3, and we were in Rodgers face all game regardless. Now this week we had home field advantage and the added advantage of crowd noise, yet had 0 sacks and very little hurries and allowed Jones to go for 400 yards on 40 attempts. I think the defense ate the cheese and thought the Giants would crumble because of the environment. The much derided Garrett also basically outcoached Payton. Gotta be careful who you make light of in this league.

Careful neugey, apparently it’s not possible for players to eat the cheese. Us fans Mentioning so is a No No.

If mentioning eating of cheese is off-limits, then I'm okay with saying that the Giants wanted it more than we did. Especially in the second half that's what I saw.

Trautman is playing like garbage.

No TE, no WR, two injuries on the O-line, crappy play calling, **** D in the end of the game....yet people will want to blame “Crab legs”. Sad.

We were 2-2 this time last year. The wheels haven’t completely fallen off yet

Just watched the highlights and wow.

It feels like when they were up 21-10 they just stopped playing and felt that was the game. The game seemingly swung on the next drive.

Taysom gets stopped on 3rd and 2
35 yard punt return by Giants
50 Yard TD by Saquon
2 point conversion by Jones

The D had no answer, Adebo was horrendous and caused multiple coverage breakdowns as well as allowing every single throw to be completed on him.

Offense needs to do more in first half, but wow. How do you let an 0-3 team that had converted 2-7 3rd downs going into the 4th quarter, score 17 unanswered points and win in OT.

This Saints squad is not good.

I guess Payton will really be sticking it to the Buccaneers and Bruce Arians by fixing Jameis’ INT problem while we go 9-8 and they repeat as Super Bowl champs.

That would fit his ego to be honest.

9-8 might be pushing it though. This defense is nowhere near as good as people think it is. Both our wins appear to be more due to luck than skill.
