Observations from the Saints come-behind win against Falcons

turbo_dog · 09-11-2022, 04:57 PM

Great comeback win by our Saints!

Offensive line is a big question mark right now. Hurst struggled at LT
Thomas looked a bit rusty in the first half, totally brought it in the 4th quarter.
Our receivers can actually catch the ball this season! Landry looked great!
Defensive line failed to pressure the QB.
Even without the pressure, the defense looked mostly solid.
The refs tried 4-5 times to give the game to the Failclowns

Can you shed some light 💡 on the int grounding call on JW?

I’m not clear at all on that one & took away a down.
Was hoping they brought in the ref from the broadcast booth to explain because it appeared to be a questionable flag.

You can’t miss those calls.

The clock wasn't running since the previous play went out of bounds. Winston didn't realize that. You can only legally spike the ball on a running clock snap. If it isn't running it falls under the usual passing rules and requires being outside of the tackle box AND past the line of scrimmage. Neither component was there on the spike.

The spike on 3rd down was even more concerning. Why spike the ball with that much time left. Let the play clock run down then spike.

Exactly! I was wondering the same right away. That was on Pete Carmichael. Payton would have been in his ear letting him know the circumstances. There was more than time enough for another to the sideline to make the kick shorter and use more clock.

Those plays all happened pretty quickly. I don't think these refs were communicating very well. I didn't know what they had called the previous play, especially since Landry got up and ran another ten yards. Not even sure where they spotted it. The announcers in the booth didn't seem to know either.

There was another play where it was 3rd and 1, and then they changed it to 1st and 10 as the ball was about to be snapped.

Dennis needs to leave the bullheaded approach to matadors and wrecking balls.

One of his first press conferences early on he was dead set on making his point clear that we ARE GOING To Run The Ball...Bully ball with an offensive line lacking the tenacity as a whole shoots that stubborn approach to **** Quick.

I understand he watched his defenses these past few years suffer from exhaustion behind 3 n outs due to pass, pass, pass, punt.

Figure out what works with This team and adjust accordingly Mr.Allen.

Pete needs his head examined on that 2 pt conversion Failure.
That play is hopefully already Trashed or at least hilighted with a Danger notation to NEVER use that again when the games on the damn line!

The players were hitting on all cylinders and was on fire!
Ingram must have bought Pete a pair of shoes to work him into the game.

#22 has his role now in his later years.

Pete and Allen need an early ass chewing!

1-0 with a failcuns flop..
COUNT IT!

For JP

The Lattimore call right at the end was a
head scratcher as well.

Don’t cheat us with these bogus penalties.

So pray tell... What did happen when JW entered the tent? Did he ingest crab legs juice? Did Drew Brees enter his body for the 4th quarter? Did he get an earful from his old lady?

Interested parties want to know...
