Observations from the Saints' Win vs Rams

Love those uniforms!
Nice clean game, and it results in a victory.
Every once in a while, Dalton takes a sack that looks ridiculously easy to avoid.
For about ten minutes, the defense forgot how to tackle. Then it all came back together.
We are incredibly deep at the DE position. Jordan, Davenport, Turner, Granderson, Tpassagnoh are all excellent.
Balanced approach today with a good mix of Taysom

Observation: good things happen when Taysom gets the ball. Some of you stat-heads should calculate the Saints' W/L record when Taysom touches the ball 10+ times in a game (despite the vanilla play calling).

As for the offense… very bland play calling, but at least execution was there.

Overall… not impressed, didn’t see improvement, just played a team missing a ton of talent.

You’d rather they play like they did against Pittsburgh?

I just love Chris Olave. I’m glad we were able to get him. I can’t wait to get Penning back. I hate the unfortunate situation Jameis Winston is in, but Andy Dalton earned himself even more leash with Dennis Allen. We still aren’t using Alvin Kamara as well as we should. Landry sighting. Like that a lot. Hopefully we can keep rolling. Won’t hold my breath.

Sounds like it was a really good growth game for Kaden Ellis. Juwan Johnson continues to catch TD's and I feel stupid for not picking him up in fantasy. Hopefully I can nab him this week.

With the conclusion of this week, there will be EIGHT teams in the NFL with 3 wins. It's good we aren't one of them. If we can tread water well enough, that Philly pick may not be as a high as we feared.

Oh yeah, I think we need to see more David Johnson in the passing game.

Winning our way to worse draft spot.

I'm allright with that. Losing games and tanking and stuff, thats for teams like the Falcons and the Browns and whatever.

Absolutely, but I might feel a little different about it if they still had their 1st round pick.

Juwan Johnson is a much more reliable TE than Trautman

Olave is a stud

Defense again got shredded and can't tackle.
Game would have come down to the wire had Stafford not been injured.
