Very true...

It's not how you start the game it's how to finis it, the Saints didn't finish well against the Panthers, you can blame the Patton drop, you can blame the missed FG's, you can blame the Int's, you can blame the play calling, you can blame the OL, the bottom line is that the team as a whole just didn't take care of business, they can only blame themselves for a lack of effort, they played without a heart, without passion and no will to win the game, the Panthers are a very bad football team and they couldn't beat them at home in a sold out Dome..
A ton of work has to be done for the Saints to have any chance in winning their first game which may be a few weeks ago...

The blocked field goal changed the momentum in the game. I was pretty upset after that play. The ball should not be kicked at that low of a trajectory, especially on a 23-yarder where you are almost guaranteed not to miss. I also noticed that Mare's other FG and XP were low and wobbly. Mare needs to get this fixed ASAP or we have to get another kicker.

Why do they keep cutting Palko. Let Palko play. He could be just like Delhomme. Drew has no arm. We colud have still had Delhomme if it wasnt for that idiot Haslett. Payton souldnt have had Reggie have 30 touches. Let him and Pierre Thomas be the new 1-2 punch. This idiot Payton put P.Thomas on special teams. Pierre reminds me of Deuce with power and more speed.

Execution, execution, execution. Players not being able to execute is the problem. This next draft should consiost of TOP Oline and Dline personnel. The battle sarts and ends with the front lines. 5 blitzs' during a game will not give you an advantage on stopping "The Big Play" give aways.

The best players will not win a game, if the execution of the play is not carried out by ALL PLAYERS.

To make a point that Euph hit on. We can not, CAN NOT build a dominate team AROUND one player (Bush). We tried that already...remember a guy named Ricky Williams. Look how great that worked out.
