I'm not ready to hit the panic button yet. If that makes me delusional or in denial, then so be it. I think we just had an off day. We need to expect that every once in a while. Given the way our defense has been playing all year, it was bound to happen sooner or later. And why is our D so afraid to tackle? I was also really disappointed in our O-Line. Where's the pass protection? We have a long way to go, and a lot of stuff to work on. I'm still holding on to hope we can finish the season 14-2 if we get our poop in a group and start playing like the team we all know we are.

We need to stop playing from behind and trying to win on a lst minute drive. We need to step on th egas and keep going. The run waqs not wroking today so it should have been an Airshow except our O-Line took the day off.

I'll tell you what I think. Yes drew had three ints. Plus let's throw in a fumble. But it's our d. They just plain sux, y'all can bash me all y'all want. No pressure, can't stop anyone. That's why we have to put up 30 or more points a game. Giving up way to may big plays. Our d is no better than last yr.
Oh our o line, can't open a hole for sh*t either.
I think it finally caught up to us.

I'm excited about getting Ivory back, too. I don't think Ivory can make the o-line run block worth a darn. Besides that, we don't make much of an effort to run unless we're up 20 in the fourth. Until Nicks, Evans, and Kreutz get it together it doesn't matter.

Exactly, I've been saying that for sometime now. Hell, it doesn't matter if we had AP back there running the ball is our "when all else fails" option.

I don't know why everyone is surprised. Some people act like they have never seen a division game before. Division games are NEVER a gimmee, no matter what either teams record is. Different teams show up during division play. I don't get all the surprise. If it would have been the Colts I could understand it, but we could be 14-0 and our division rival could be 0-14 and they will still play us like they are a Super Bowl contender. It happens more often than not.

Saints, few teams win them all. I get that. They lost this one to such a lesser team that is going nowhere, probably.
TampaBucs had luck of being right place/right time for some of those plays and scores. Saints gave them some scores and that is always something just hard to accept for a lost when your team just does some give-a-ways.

Over and out. This lost, ok, over, but I wish the Saints win the next four games then to make up for this "just one." the season is long. Saints are 4-2. Now....

Coach SP, whoa!
Poor guy. Ingram, poor guy must feel so awful right now.
Boy oh boy.
Lost, no whoop in a way, but SP getting hurt like that hurts more. This man has to have surgery first thing tomorrow... then rehabbing his leg, ahhhhh, I just cannot comprehend this now, still.
I still am like, what??
Off to see RH of NJ reunion show. I just cannot deal with watching NFL net or ESPN now.

Dust off and prepare for the next game. No sense kicking ourselves for a complete and thorough failure. Look at the bucs. Got their asses kicked on the road, came back home and beat a superior team. Happens.

One data point does not make a trend.
