Observations from the Saints loss to the Texans

I knew we'd lose the second Baun fumbled that pick right back to them. It's typical Saints BS.

Offense shows NE game was a fluke. Grupe missing the shortest kick, any team has had this season.

Olave jogging through routes until the 2nd half, not looking for the ball on a deep route.

This Saints team stinks. An absolute bore-fest to watch when it's just Death by ineptitude.

I know this is going to be a very unpopular statement, but it may be time to seriously consider putting Olave on the trading block. I know this is a very talented number 1 type of receiver, but we are now seeing a pattern of unacceptable behavior over the past few weeks. These type of issues normally do not improve over time.

Honestly, Shaheed is better than him anyway and MT never gives up.

Olave's body language and demeanor is frustrating to watch.

We know you don't like losing Chris, but imagine being a fan, who has no power to change the outcome, still using what's left of their measly paycheck, to watch you give 40% effort every play.

AT Perry is waiting on the sideline every game, see if he has anything!

Why we've signed all these TE's, including the 6'7 Jimmy Graham and he never gets used in the redzone is peak ineptitude.

TBH Dizzle I felt like that since last year, about Rasheed being better than Olave the difference is they spent a 1st ROUND pick on one guy.

I'll caveat that statement on Olave by questioning the severity of his toe injury (listed on the past several weeks of the injury report). If this dude is running routes on a lower grade turf toe injury, that's a knock on coaches allowing it! I'd like to think that his 'body language' just may be him trying to play through an injury as opposed to just giving up!
