Will We Get Embarrased On National TV Once Again?

It seems that every time we hit the national airwaves we get our rear ends handed to us.Does anyone think this will happen again on Sunday?

I\'m not ready to say this team can\'t turn it around. I\'m also not willing, at this point, to start saying the coaches should be fired. Getting the offense untracked shouldn\'t be that hard, because of all the talent we have there. Right now McCarthy can\'t blame lack of talent on offense as an excuse. He has no one to blame but himself. On defense, I can\'t fault Venturi, because of all the injuries and because the offense keeps putting them back out on the field.

IF this coaching staff cannot get this team to play up to it\'s potential on a consistant basis this year, they should be held accountable.

After only 3 games -- IMO -- it\'s a little too early to write this team off. It wouldn\'t suprise me in the least if this teams comes alive and starts playing very good. But, the stratagy is going to have to change for that to happen.

I don\'t think the saints can play any worse than they had vs. Tenn but I still think Indy is going to hand them another discouraging defeat.

Mike McCarthy has not pulled his head out his AZZ since after the 2nd Bucs game last year. The problem with his play calling did not just start this year. He did not figure it out in the offseason, through preseason, or through the first 3 games. Why would he figure it out this week?
