Observations from Saints loss at Green Bay

I don't buy into all this "can't blame injuries, team has to step up" scenario!!!

With sooooooo many starters injured on offence it was almost a foregone conclusion how they would be in that game.

What was a bit more surprising was the way our defence was steam rolled! 35 points! Wow!

Oh well, its Christmas Eve, have a good one everybody!

Agreed,

Half of our starting lineup is out on offense
Carr
Kamara
Hill
Olave
Shaheed

Defense? No excuse.

Next year will be just as bad.

We'll need every one of the above mentioned players to contribute significantly.

The FA market is not projected to be strong and we're so hamstrung on contracts our only hope is to draft well and improve the trenches.
