i think everyone has great points, if its brit having the boy, to paytons play calling, once there all done we will explode like pumkins on that chicks face. sorry if i knew how to upload/download i would have brought it to you

That's what I'm thinking. We are missing some key players.

We have the foundation in place to be damn good for a long time maybe we just need to reignite the intensity.

Ok i'll buy into what y'all are saying. But I'm still going to keep on saying
TWO DAT !!

We need(ed) to be better than last year, every week, just to maintain some sense of Championshipitousness. I just aint see'in it, and it looks like the boys ain't feel'n it either. The "I believe I can", has to actually get done in the moment, on every play, and Sean Payton has to get every player to that place once again. As we can see, it doesn't just carry over into the new year like unused vacation. Somebody, everybody has to MAKE it happen. Prepare, believe, then make it happen. It's more than just a thought.

Lets kick Tampa's azz!

Get your psyche rooting rays tuned up. Sit in the proper position.
Eat the right food. Wear the right Jersey. Focus your eyes in the
proper place before the snap. Carry the correct gris-gris.

Lets stop fiddling around with these opponents, WhoDats, its time we realized WE are the problem. Lets work hard this week, prepare, and get focused.

Who's in with me? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHHHHHHH!

I really don't think the intensity will return this year. We're competitive because we're a good team but we are NOT playing with the heart we did last year. We're emotionally exhausted and that goes from the front office all the way down to the fans. I'm as guilty of having a Super Bowl hangover as anyone. I've only made ONE home game so far and that was to watch them drop the banner! I've only made hotel reservations for one more and that's the steelers game. I just haven't been able to get excited this year. As a matter of fact, I'm not even as disappointed as I think I should be when we lose. After looking at the schedule, I actually am more excited about next year when we have the Colts and Texans coming to town. The fans will be hungry again and refreshed, the players will be ready to get back to kicking our opponents around and all will be right again. As for this year, I think we'll make the playoffs, I just don't think we will go very far. It's just not our year.

All of your comments ring true to what I was implying after last week (and that was AFTER a WIN) ... we just aren't that great and I think realistic fans can see that. I LOVE THE SAINTS, but time to be real ... Unless there is some MAJOR changes -- we'll be lucky to be in the playoffs.

Something isn't right in New Orleans ... Too many book deals, too much publicity, too much fanfare ... They aren't focused. Plain and simple.
