New Orleans Saints defense struggles in 27-14 loss to Texans

This is why I hate the preseason so much. Is it true that Payton is trying to hide things. Sounds reasonable. Would he go as far as tell his guys to slack off? Doubtful although this is the guy that started the 2nd half of a Superbowl with an onside kick.

I'll finish this by reminding everyone that the '67 Saints finished 5-1 in preseason. (Yeah...6 games, you know I loved that)

Can you imagine the anticipation of a novice NFL fan going into the season with a preseason like that? I've been this way about preseason ever since.

Oh, yeah... They finished 3-11 in '67.
