Payton recaps the Halloween win, talks about throwing the red flag & goal-line defense
New Orleans Saints Head Coach Sean Payton Press Conference

Monday, November 1, 2010

Opening Statement:

“I was pleased with our overall effort yesterday. I thought we battled. It was a hard-fought game. It was a good game to win against a good team. There were a lot of encouraging things on the film. Like we do every week we’ll make the corrections and focus on our next opponent.”

How important is it to capitalize on this win and take advantage of an opportunity against a division opponent next Sunday?

“I think it’s important to be more consistent. We talked about it a week ago. We’ll look closely at this film and try to see the areas we feel like we can improve on and then have another good, solid week of practice.”

What was most encouraging on the film?

“I felt that we played with a lot of energy. I thought that we were very physical. I thought the second half, going in at halftime it was very close at 3-3. I thought in the second half we did a very good job on third downs. Comparatively, I think both teams were 1-7 at halftime. We were much better with our ability to stay on the field and possess the ball. Defensively we continue to do a good job on third downs. Those are just some things.”
