Lukewarm Hall game nothing to fear

I thought that the Saints weren't even trying, and I could see where Coach, considering the circumstances, as in playing in a bad field that's wet, knowing they have 5 preseason games, told everyone "just don't get hurt", and all this talk about him not being pleased is just for our benefit.

I disagree- they came right back with full contact practices early in the week. I think he was genuinely pissed. We played well in our national games last year, and I think Sean was embarressed.

As for the first post... Lukewarm? We were ice cold. Lukewarm is being lethargic against the Redskins for the whole game, but still having a chance to win it in the end.

Yeah get that notion out of yalls head... if it ment nothing then why Payton was pissed! I dont' care the Saints lost its the way they lost. Everything they were suppose to address in the offseason - was for nothing they looked worse this year than last year. They didn't try... flat. Payton was pissed and for good reason, it was embarrassing. Its ok to lose but at least show up.

thats exactly how i feel if your gonna go down go down fighting. this team has a lot of leaders on it but it needs a azzhole. the saints need someone (preferably on the defensive side)who aint afraid to get in a teammates face and tell them to cowboy up. look at joey porter his stats are very average but what he does bring is a fire that can light up others also. i would love to see fujita or grant get in toast's face or in mckenzies grill and tell them to step up. we need a fire. and it shouldnt always be from the head coach
