Yeah I mentioned this last week and nearly was stoned to death for panicking. Something is definitely wrong. Not just with Drew. The receivers routes don't look crisp, O line seems a bit slow. Drew is not right. He has yet to wow me like he did nearly every single game last year. Defense looks real vanilla and maybe it's because Sharper is not out there and GW feels he is not comfortable putting any pressure. We did some things today that reminded me of 2007 with end arounds at strange times-almost like we are trying to trick our way into getting a first down. I also think that SP is such a mad scientist that if there is a game that he feels we can win without much game planning, then he won't show his hand. Ithink he definitely did that last year leading up to the Pats game and then that was it until Arizona. Just seems that way.

I couldn't agree more but of course you get the one's that question your Saints fandom when your vocal about your concerns instead of parading about just being happy we pulled it off..
I hope we get this all addressed before we reach the harder stretch of our season, i think regaining Sharper, Bush and getting Brees super healthy is a start, but our D has looked like puff pillows as of late, they've managed to every now and then look impressive but very inconsistent, it's like they "Turn it off" sometime and let themselves get run over and then "Turn it back on" only when it's a really really desperate situation. I could probably relax a little more if we put ourselves up about 4 scores before everybody turn it off. |

In the theme of coulda woulda shoulda, it all evens out.
We shoulda won last week and probably shoulda lost today. We're 3-1 and a Giants victory away from the best record in the NFC... |

Am I the only one who is encouraged by Ivory- not his production so far, but the fact that he does things like gets super pissed on that 9 yard-run? I mean, most rookies, playing in their second game, and with the troubles that he's had so far, would be acting like the second coming if they ripped off that run- but he wasn't happy because he came up short, so he bullied his way to the line on the next down. I think that really shows something.

Of course you're not alone. I hope it doesn't get so bad that we have to tell the "oh, well be alright in a few games" crowd I told you so, but we're 1/4 into the season and we look like crap on both sides of the ball.
