Re: Why did we wait 3 otrs
Payton didn't coach his best game here. Play calling was suspect, didn't double team Ware.

In retrospect, maybe the Saints needed this loss. It should take a lot of pressure off of them now. They will steam-roll Tampa and if they clinch HFA, then the starters can rest against Carolina now that 16-0 is out the door. Get everyone healthy and get ready for the playoff run. |

Re: Why did we wait 3 otrs
I can live with 15-1 but I want a 2 game win streak going into the playoffs.

tell me 1 series before the 4th qtr that this wasnt the sequence? we ran the ball 13 ****ing times the entire game guess how many times we passed? i'll save you from the pain of looking up the stats we passed the ball 45 times this game over the past 3 games drew has thrown the ball 134 times thats 45 times per game......without balance we are weak we averaged 5 ypc on the ground.....there is no reason we shouldnt have run the ball more at the beginning of the game this thread is another one of those emotional threads with very little information to back it up just like the jenkins thread |

Re: Why did we wait 3 otrs
It was a total team loss guys. Offense, offensive play call stunk, o-line stunk, Drew Brees STUNK, Defensive backfield gave up over 300 plus yards, d-line was good at times, offense didn't make a third down until minutes left in the 4th quarter, we let them get yards on kick returns, we stunk up the field in almost every aspect of the game. We almost came back to tie the game which speaks volumes but lets face it, we lost to the better team tonight.

Re: Why did we wait 3 otrs
Is it me, or did it seem like the defense did not put pressure until the fourth quarter? Did we purposely not blitz until it was too late?
Yeah ... O-line was major suckage. Bottom line... Cowgirls needed this game more than the Saints and they played like it. | |
