The Pressure of Being 9-0

I really don't think the 9-0 start has gotten to their heads, so I don't think that is really a lot of pressure for those guys. The Saints however need to refocus on fundamentals. Things like holding on to the ball, running correct routes, not throwing INT's, tackling, blocking assignments, etc... I think the real pressure is there are a lot of guys playing that would other wise be on the bench. That has to be difficult to adjust to, and yes, most teams go through that this time of the season. The Saints will be fine, I see them correcting the mistakes they are making.
