Re: Observations from the Saints beating the Cowboys 44-19
Their best receiver, CeeDee Lamb. Let's do a deeper dive, shall we?
7 Targets/ 4 Receptions/ 90 Yards/ 1 TD. Pretty good stats huh? Hold on there Bobba-Luis! (I'm dating myself with my Quick Draw McGraw reference. But I digress.) If you take away the ONE play of 60 yards for the TD (where I got queasy reliving the whiffed tackling of the Minneapolis Miracle all over again), not only does Lamb have a sorry 6 TGT/ 3 REC/ 30 YD stat line, but the Cowboys score ZERO TDs and only 4 FGs!!! The cherry on top is that Lattimore was out resting his hammy! This Defense is one of the best we've seen since the Dome Patrol! (Yes. I said it!) |

Re: Observations from the Saints beating the Cowboys 44-19
-Everyone has bought in.
-Bringing Kubiak in was a literal game changer. -Shaheed's speed, acceleration, and ability to track the ball is amazing. -Kamara is an all-around dynamic player. NFL MVP dynamic. -Carr is loving the system and is straight ballin. -Fuaga, Patrick and Penning have answered all the uncertainty at the position. Looking like All-Pros. -Hill didn't show up much on the stat sheet yesterday, but he's so valuable to the team. All the little things. -Johnson made a couple nice blocks in the run game yesterday. -Smith is still kicking butt at MLB to go along with his great leadership. -Jordan made a couple nice plays yesterday. A PBU and an arm tackle that saved a bigger gain. -The Saints have the best secondary in the game. -After a whiff on a tackle, TM made a great hit and interception. -Kool-Aid plays with fire and anger. Love it. Not to mention his lockdown ability. He was a draft steal. The Saints have the best secondary in the NFL. -The Cowboys are not good. Dak and Lamb are. Parsons and Diggs are. But they have no running game or run defense. |

Re: Observations from the Saints beating the Cowboys 44-19
The one thing that I heard, read, and shared repeatedly ever since we signed Klint Kubiak was that the Shanahan/Kubiak scheme he was bringing to the Saints was 1.) offensive line friendly, 2.) made for Derek Carr's strengths, and 3.) was the perfect fit for Kamara's style of play. Those people that shared this knew exactly what they were talking about.
Carmichael spent two years trying to force square pegs into Sean Payton's abandoned round hole. I have to give Gayle and Loomis credit for finally letting Dennis Allen jettison the last of the Payton holdovers and bring in what is now entirely his own staff on offense, defense, and special teams. |

Re: Observations from the Saints beating the Cowboys 44-19
It's still super early but if the Saints keep lighting it up like this offensively, will Klint Kubiak be on a one-year rental in NOLA?
The man could be in high demand as someone's next HC for 2025. |
