It's a 8.5/8.5 league and today we ended up on the wrong side of it. I'm proud of our guys sticking with it, and having a realistic chance to win after a bad game with nit picking refs. Kudos again to our punter BTW.

Sync with his receivers? Dude, not catching a catchable ball has nothing to do with sync. Lol.

Their job is to catch the ball. I could understand if it was timing or something. But everything I heard was they just failed to execute "catching the ball."

And no, I still don't want that dumbass OBJ. Lol. Just my opinion of course.

Washing both Saints jerseys tonight after the Falcons W. Easiest decision of the weekend.

It might be better to sanitize your eyeballs with a hot pitchfork. Lol

Doesn't it? Why not? Ball speed, angle, timing has no effect on a new receiver?

I guess if they were used to a soft pass then you throw it to them with mustard every time. But....I don't think that's the issue. Lol.

You may be right but imo there is no excuse for 8 dropped passes. Good hell. That's bs.

Fair enough brother, let's keep our heads up, OK?

I didn't get to see the second half, but from what I saw in the first half Siemian didn't look bad. Too many drops. Is that how the second half played out?

Also, I think of Trautman as the anti-Jimmy Graham. Trautman can block, but not catch.

This loss will come back to hurt us. We had a chance to bridge the gap and catch up to Dallas, GB, and TB.

But it’s just the Saints being the Saints…we have to take the hard road….smh

Second half had some drops but, not like the first half. They made a game of it in the 4th quarter only to give it away with a minute left.
