I stood there by myself at the exit tonight as people were leaving the game. I was wearing my Saints hoodie and my Saints knit cap. Not gloating, not being obnoxious, just serving as a reminder of the team that beat the Seahawks tonight.
"1-4, good job." "So the Saints won one finally. So what?" These were some of the comments I heard as the fans passed by me. I said nothing. I didn't need to.
I heard all the paper bag comments and 0-4 comments and didn't respond. I didn't need to.

Anyway, I enjoyed the game. Especially when it was nice and quiet in the 3rd quarter. Here's my take on the game that I was fortunate to have been able to see in person on Sunday night.

Brees looked good. Brees had time. There is a correlation.
It's silly to think that the line only looked good when Karney picked up the slack. They all played well. I watched Stinchcomb because I've been skeptical of his play. He played well against anyone who lined up against him. When I saw Julian Peterson line up against him I thought for sure Peterson would win that battle. Jon looked good.

Other than the fumble, Bush looked good as well. Pretty good for a guy who's not a featured back.

Patten is fast. He and Moore should be ahead of Henderson no question. I'd like to see more Colston and less Bush receiving but that's me.
Billy Miller nabbed some important receptions too.

Saints run defense played tuff. I have no problem with the d-line. It's the other seven that scare me. That first Seahawk touchdown was gross negligence by Jason Craft. It happened right in front of me. What was he thinking? Of the back seven I really like Harper, Fujita and McKenzie. In that order.

And I witnessed something I thought I'd never see. Bullocks had an interception!

Good game.
