Great game despite the outcome.

Incredible FG made by Lutz and an almost even better one to close the game.

Can't be mad, really, other than the BS ref call on Lattimore. If the refs call it consistent, the game, we get one of own own.

Improvement from the team overall. Is it a result of the red haired wonder at QB? Maybe .. also Murray was a refreshing new set of legs and welcomed back in the fold. We missed his size.

Olave is proving his worth. Congrats for his first TD as a pro and as a Saint. Hope he gets to keep that football.

Even Trautman showed us something.

Cam Jordan continues to impress, even as he ages.

Davenport doesn't seem to miss his pinky, except at tea time in London.

Is it over for the Saints this season? Hardly. Tis a long season. The schedule is hard. But there is room even for an 9-8 team this year in the playoffs. The weakness of the NFC as a whole will ultimately help this team out.

Who Dat!

man... imagine if the Prima Donna (MT) was on the field today; all that money just sitting on the bench....

- For me, the more frustrating call was the phantom hands to the face on Honey Badger.

- Can't expect to win many games relying on the kicker for multiple 60+ yard field goals.

- Vikings play-calling in the red zone seemed much better than ours. If we can't run it in it feels like we're stuck.

Turnovers, penalties (10-105 yards) & refs late in the 4th.

It’s hard to win in the NFL games + the zebras. We shouldn’t be surprised though.

Anyone notice not one holding call all game on Vikings O line or secondary.

Is that even remotely possible?

Offensively the play calling is suspect + LTrain needs to be more involved in this run game going forward.

Olave is the truth. Winnable game though.

We should never be in a position to let the refs, and the other team beat us like this. But here we are. On to next week...

We should stick with Dalton regardless next week. He provided some spark. But even if he is better than Winston probably neither is good enough to get a ring, especially playing 11 vs 16 with the refs, and even if one was good enough, neither project to be durable and stay healthy at their age/condition with our oline. We probably need a qb and to get that we probably need a high first round pick and possibly more to trade up which means waiting until 2024. At least maybe Dalton can give us consistent enough qb play to properly evaluate our talent as long as he can stay on the field. Maybe he can make Thomas or Hill look good enough to trade for something. If Dalton has ups and downs, as we would expect, we can give winston another look when he is fully healthy, but I dont know if he will ever stay fully healthy when our guards are a guy who is there because of his draft position and another guy who is there because of his contract commitment, not anyone who is there because they are good at blocking pass rushers.

• I need blood pressure medicine
• The defense kept the team in the game, AGAIN
• Olave continues to impress and improve
• I'd like to see Olave and Hardy on the field at the same time. Who could cover both of them streaking down the field?
• The offensive line had fewer plays where it looked like they were lost
• Dalton had about three passes that could have been pick 6
• Good job by Tre, Quez, and Traut today
• Finally getting some pressure on the QB by the defensive line
• Three inches from OT

Good game. I like the offense in this game more with Dalton then with Goofball. I'm sure JW will get the start next week. If he sucks again, I hope they pull him quickly.

I like seeing Murray. Big dude. Had some nice runs. Good to have him back.

Defense played well.

I still think we're ****ed this season. 1-3 isn't the end of the world, but it's a big hole to dig out of with backup caliber QBs and one specifically that can't read defenses.

Oh well.

Murray > Ingram.

4 turnovers in 4 games.

The “rust” excuse is over for our offense. We aren’t very creative with the game plan. Someone tell Pete that LTrain gets STRONGER (avg 5 yard PER CARRY) in the second half & DBs are less likely to tackle him.

Then he disappears for a quarter. Ride your hot hand.

No discipline (miscues/turnovers) coaching has been bad.

…… lots of things. …… lots of little things. Everything normally fixed by a coach.

We’ve been seeing the same sh1t for 7 weeks. Coach needs to go, HC is not in Dennis Allen’s skill tree.
