Agreed. It seems like, baring mistakes, they're practically unstoppable.

Never had a bit of doubt. If we're going to have a shoot out, my money will be on the Saints... and it was.

I had doubts. Especially at 26-17, Texans with the ball. Then again, to doubt is to be a Saints fan.

There is method to our Madness. Definitely hard on the heart, but thrilling as all get out. Love my Saints!

Still giddy after this afternoon's show stopper.

Imagine if Graham turns in and there's no pick? Or if that Houston TD doesn't ping-pong off 3 players?

Without mistakes, we score 50 on this team.

For a while it looked like the Saints vs Andre Johnson.

Oh I had a ton of doubt. I know the Texans are good, and I know we had some key injuries on defense, but man we looked lost on defense for most of this game...just...plain...lost.

I hope it will get better.

No worries when Drew is running the O.
