One Game Out of First?!?

stockman311 · 10-28-2007, 09:12 PM

We are one Mare missed FG in the Carolina game from being in sole possession of first place in the NFC South.....
How is this possible?
Like I said this week, this Jax game is the key to our season. Their backup QB is just awful. They cannot pass the ball and it seems our D is kicking butt against the run.
This one is just taylor made for us at home next week. I don't know how they beat the Bucs today. Garcia just made too many mistakes. Brees won't. I think we take this next one and peek out of the hole we dug for ourselves.

This team could be 6-4 after the next three weeks if they stay focused and play with some humility. Overconfidence has been this team's bugaboo for so long, especially at home. It's about time there's a solid win against a quality opponent at home.

Going into that 3 game stretch of divisional opponents, it will be imperative to be playing efficient, unselfish, ballhawking football.

See...See...See your future.

3-4 sounds very good to me right now, and as said , they are only one game back, that is hard to believe being we started 0-4.

What a difference a few weeks make! A few weeks ago we SUCKED! some were so bold to say. No running game, no passing game, terrible O-Line, no D-line, no corners, ya-da ya-da-ya-da. After three wins in a row, we are one away from 500. Whoda thunk it? We have one of the best conferences to be able to start 0-4 and still have a chance to salvage the season. I watched this win and don't remember jumping up one time - not so much what I saw, but what I didn't see. I saw us beat a team that "really" sucked. I have seen better challenges at Wednesday's practice. I am concerned about the play calling and the lack of commitment to run the ball. It will come back to bite us.

3 - 4 sound great to me too. One play at at time. One game at a time. Next Week Jaguars.
Lets just keep the ball rolling. Or passing.

The Jags game will be very important. I have Faith in the Saints. Lets Do this.

Yo, 3 - 4 sounds a hell of a lot better than 0 - 7 anyway you look at it, just ask the Rams and Dolphins(OUCH!).

Buccaneers vs. Cards and Titans vs. Panthers next week. Both are toss up games that could go either way.

After starting 0-4 I didn't think that the Saints would get back in the race for awhile. I'm going to continue to enjoy todays outcomes and start praying again tomorrow.

It seems that they are just playing better.
