Q&A with Sean Payton

Any time you put the tape on, it’s interesting. After a big win, it’s never as clean or as good as you would’ve thought and then after a tough loss it’s never as bad as you thought. It kind of brings you back to the middle.

This is why I'm not very surprised or concerned that we played a tight game against the Redskins and the Rams or lost to the Bucs. The margins in the NFL are so small, the parity so great. Every team has big, fast, strong guys that kan make plays. Eventually during a season the margins won't be on your side and then you will loose.

Its not like college football where one team can have clearly superior talent and expect to win by a blowout every game. The way we started the season is abnormal for the NFL scoring around the 40s every game. A more typical score is 17-14 or 21-10.

The sky is not falling, we are not doomed. The Carolina game will be a good chance to clean stuff up and to give Brunell atleast a half to beat som rust off. We want him ready if he's ever needed in the playoffs.

The playoffs are a different animal than the reguar season but I have a feeling that it will suit us just fine.

Geaux Saints!
