I get that other areas are bad, like receiver, but this D got torched by the Falcons, Panthers and Giants. They also got torched by the bucs, but got lucky when Brady made a bad mistake.
They do give up a lot of big plays but our offense had them on the field a majority of the 1st half. I cant believe our WRs are this bad and we have one of the worst TEs in the whole league.

We had leads on both Giants and Atl. Two teams struggling on O. They both drove it down our throats. Nothing is really “good” about this team.

Sam Darnold tore this D to pieces, then had 3 or 4 bad games and got benched, so yeah, they ain't good.

Falcons recovered our fumble, we couldn't recover theirs. One of those 50/50 games, and there was a ton of things we could've done better. Penalties seem to doom us.

Re: Observations from Saints Loss to the FailClowns

We have the worst WR core in football but let's focus on the defense. The first 30 minutes of the game was flat-out embarrassing at wideout. We are running AK into the ground. He has to do too much, every single week. The offense is good at dropping balls, killing possessions.

Not sure why Dennis has Adebo on a vet in that late situation. This isn't the first time either ... coaching blunder.

The strength of the Saints is the defense and special teams.

We got outplayed today. Look around the league today (Raiders, Denver, Bills, Browns) if you don't bring your A-game, you'll get beat.

Go get OBJ. If we don’t even try we are essentially punting on the season because we aren’t making a run with this group.

Trevor Siemian showed me enough to earn another start. We have to make that WR upgrade though.

8 dropped passes today. By NFL standards, terrible. Dreadful.

Penalties killed drives too.
