I am a Saints fan and believe that we can turn the season around. Less turnovers (0-2 per game), a few big plays (1-2 per game), solid blocking and tackling, and we will get some wins. Consistency in the trenches will position us in close games to pull some out. We MUST take care of the rest of our Divisional contests.

I just find it a bit disturbing when a fan from another team has more faith in our team than some of us do.

When we, (for some unknown of mental issue) made the choice to become Saints fans; we knew this team was no good. The only bright side we ever saw in Dome Patrol era. I knew in 1972 the Saints sucked. Why do I still love them?????? Who ever can give me that reason needs to write a book about Saints fans. We have been able to finally have a season where we almost made it. Luck or not...we almost made it!

Yes, this year has made us, as fans fall back into our, "Welp, it's gonna be another year full of cussing, heartache, and pure pain." Well, I think it's kinda crappy to just lose all hope after just 3 games. I admit, just like the rest of you, we have serious problems right now. Can they be fixed....hell yeah they can be.

IMHO, I think the team feels worse because they are letting us down right now. None of you will all of a sudden say, "Well, screw this!, I'm outta here!" We have been fans of a sucky team all our lives. There is more to this team and us than them winning a SuperBowl.

Sorry, to preach. and yes, I will continue to complain. Just remember, how much you love this team. They will win. Will we go to the SB????? More than likely, no we won't. But come August 2008 we will still be in here awaiting opening day.

GO SAINTS!

The history of our team doesn't lend itself to turnarounds. We usually flop at the end of the season. What would equate as a turn around at this point? Anything less than 10-6 would be a failure from last year. We'd be heading in the wrong direction.

Great teams need to win the games they are suppose to win. Titans-Bucs... we should have won those. Colts I'll give a pass to they are great and coming off a SB victory.

I've been watching the tape...even last years tape. Teams don't fear us deep because Brees doesn't throw deep...and when he does throw deep, receivers have to make adjustments and just outplay the defender. Brees is great 25 yards and in...as the Missle said, "watch the tapes", when he airs it out, very few are on target or successful. Most 35+ pass completions were 25 or less throws with add-on yards after the catch.
