Nice game Saints!
Got to give credit where credit is due, you guys did a nice job on defense tonight. I think all those blitzes made Big Ben think he was playing the STEELERS lol. Truth be told though, a lot of steelers fans like myself didn't under estimate this game at all we knew it would come down to Brees vs. our secondary and the Steelers just couldn't defend the pass as good as the run tonight. Our playcalling was just terrible, Mike Wallace is averaging 23 yards per catch and he was targeted what 3 times? Miller didn't even see the ball until the 4th and it looked like we were trying to run the wheels right off of Mendenhall all night. I don't know if you Saints fans know this, but Steeler nation has always hated our OC Bruce Arians and tonight just strengthened it. He flat out drew up another terrible game plan and it was the biggest eye sore of the night for me.
We'll just have to tear up the Bengals next Monday and get back on track. Anyways respect Saints....UNTIL we meet again at Cowboys stadium in February! |
well trap we can say the same for us because we have no running game to speak of as you noticed but for paytons defense he abandoned the run because it was not going to save the day. so lean on the mvp of the prior SB to win it for u and its a huge win for the who-dat nation.

I thought Ivory was doing pretty good, but then he never came back. Did he get hurt? Anyways, this is one of the best games of the season so far. I love me some D. Goalline stands, hard hits, and everything they had left on the field. My dad, and brother are both Steeler fans, and they called to congratulate. I would love to see a black and gold superbowl. That would be awesome to say the least, as being a Saint since birth, and following the Steelers through since Green, Bradshaw, and Lambert played the game.

Like Strato said; mad quick Defense! Very quick sideline to sideline and reaction speed.
Our D showed up and put quite a bit of pressure on Ben and forced him to hurry up his throws quite a bit. Look forward to meeting again in Dallas, us being a lot healthier, same result of course... |
IT WAS SO AMAZING HOW THE D WAS SO PUMPED BEFORE THE GAME U KNEW THEY WERE BRINGING IT TONIGHT.

lol the Bucs aren't that good you guys will smash them now that you've gotten back into form.
So now that the game is done with, how do you guys think Reggie Bush is going to pan out the rest of the season? I have him on my fantasy team and can't wait for him to be back in action. Will he be back next week? |
Reggie should be back next week. He's always an important part of our offense either as a decoy, a blocking back, a WR out of the backfield or a punt returner.
Steelers fan? During our run to the SB this year, Steeler fans were part of the VERY FEW NFL fans who came to this website with respect and gave us congrats as opposed to "you guys are cheaters" or "your defense is just lucky." You guys played a hard hitting game tonight. Agree with you on the play call... really on both sides, but the Saints got it together at the last minute. Quote:

We've had a few "Bruce Arians" OC's in our history, so I feel your pain. If you remember the 80's and early 90s, we were nothing but D. Needless to say, we've been rather pleased with our offensive scheme since '06. Last night, I noticed for the 1st time this year I could not predict what Payton would do next. Way to man-up, Trap, about your loss. Usually, we either hear how "lucky" we got, or how everyone feels sorry for us because of the Storm- and fixed the game for us. (nobody fixed anything for us in '05, when the Storm happened) Actually, I was pretty nervous most of the game. Great fight. See you in Dallas! |
