Observations from the Saints' Dominating Win vs Raiders

Saints needed this kind of performance . It's good to witness no turnovers, way fewer penalties, positive contributions from all players, and last if not least dominating Saints Defense... This is called winning football ! Maybe the Kamara speech was effective after all.

Let's enjoy this and rejoice!

Who Dat!

A Healthy (and intelligent) dose of Taysom, a cool headed and efficient Andy, AK doing what he does best, other key players PLAYING... and a Defense SHOWING UP... And a GOOD WEEK AHEAD for the Fans... Finally. WHODAT!

The biggest difference between Andy and JW- Andy knows to check it down to the best play maker he has. Winston’s check down is a 50 yard 50/50 ball.

They won today because they played fundamentally sound ball. Limited turnovers, limited penalties equates to wins.

Comparing the two, Andy just looks more comfortable back there.

Winston plays in a chaotic way, even his drop back looks rushed and panicky.

I think at this stage, unless Dalton has a complete meltdown, he's the QB until the end of the season.

While I don’t necessarily disagree with your assessment, I will say Winston did NOT have the kind of blocking (run or pass) that Dalton had today.

Absolutely a fair point.

Not wanting to rain on the parade but this requires tempering… Context : Raiders are about 25th in pass defense, tied for 32nd in sacks, and giving up the same average number of points as we are. Winston had the same kind of blocking just didn’t play against the Raiders.

Agree the Saints beat a team they should beat. But they haven't done that this season so I'm encouraged.

Don't want to get too excited but starters returning from injury at the right time...

That made me chuckle.

First game, two quarters. That’s all I needed to see.
