Don't under-estimate this win :)

For once it was nice to see the Saints running out the clock on offense to end the game and not the other team.

I'm seeing about 50/50 coverage in terms of the "analysts" and their assesment of the win. The guys I would expect to be down on the Saints chalk the win up to the fact that the Eagles were drained because of last weeks game against the Cowboys...they were all ready with a stat: Ried is 5 and 6 the a week after playing the Cowboys. Why would you even look up that stat?!?! Aikman was chomping at the bit waiting for the Eagles to win.
I've recorded all of the games so far on DVD, and I watch them all the time...the Saints improve SIGNIFICANTLY every week...it's very noticeable when you look at how we played week 1 compared to yesterday. if we continue to improve every week...it's scary.

Tell the analysts to kiss my fat redneck a$$ with the Eagles were flat crap. They got beat.

agreed Kristo...they have gotten better every week...the formations have gotten more diverse every week...and even though he threw two pics, one was a tip and that happens, Brees has looked more and more comfortable in the offense and develping his swagger...How awesome was scoring on the opening two drives....when was the last time that happened...Looks like Reggie is getting a little more patient in his running by waiting for holes and blocks to develop...I think the Eagles were keyed on him and they probably spent way to much time game planning around him...Plain and simple the Eagles got beat down in NOLA

As bad as the Boys played in that game they were in position to extend that game before Bledsoe went stupid. We didn't go stupid. 16 plays. 8:26 seconds off the clock. A well-managed drive against a good defense to win the game. The "analysts" can bite me.

Analysts are a mixed profession. Some really don't know what they're talking about at all. Some flip-flop from week to week.A team wins: They're for real. They lose the next week: they've got serious problems. Like the Eagles are by no means a bad team. They will most likely make the playoffs. You have to really look at margins of victories and losses. Losses more so. A win is a win.
