Wake-up call my foot, 2001 Saints VS Redskins deja vu?

Half of Saints fans were complaining that we didn't air it out enough. The other half is complaining that we didn't run enough.

That fact is, we had to play catch up - so, we had to throw. We ran because, regardless, you still have to keep the defense honest. You can't throw every single play.

I can answer many of your questions, but that's too much work. I'll simplify it for you.

- We're not a 6-1 team.
- We just came off of a bye week.
- It was just a bad day. The Saints couldn't catch a break. All of the bounces and tips went to the Ravens. Think of it as a bad hair day.
- The Ravens are a good team.
- We played against the best defense in the NFL.

Simple enough?

Atleast we're healthy. Peyton took a lot of the blame upon himself. Listening to his post-game interviews you could tell that he's ready to go to work tomorrow and fix things. All coaches say it, but you can tell he meant it.

We're not going to win all of our games. We have to lose sometime. What makes a team good is how well they handle adversity. We'll see next week.

What's important is no injuries and no locker room/finger-pointing fiasco.
