Thanks for the reality check FF.
Here is the problem as I see it. We as Saints fans have been so used to losing, that now, because we have been winning we expect it. Hell, I'd go as far to say we DEMAND it. In a sick way, the Saints winning the SuperBowl was the worst thing that happened to us as Saints fans. Is it wrong to want the best for our beloved team? By no means. However, our fanhood has turned from insanity into fanatical. Our team will be fine. We can't win the SB every year. What's the point in following a team if they win the big one every year? Look at how the general public outside of Boston hated the Patriots. I don't want our team to become hated. Plus, losing keeps the bandwagoners to a minimum. |

The biggest reason we lost the game yesterday, imo, was the running game. It isn't even the amount of yards we get per game, or the average yards per run of the running backs. I've been noticing a trend for the last few weeks. We try to run the ball on an early down, we get nothing at all. We throw a short pass on the other early down and get like 3 or 4 and then we are set up with a medium sized 3rd down that we sometimes fail to pick up. If we could get some level of consistency on early downs we win that game easy. Our normally potent offense, is shooting itself in the foot. One of the main reasons we've still been putting up pretty good offensive numbers is Brees being amazing on 3rd downs.

I remember that defence like it was yesterday, LB's that lived to break you in two..& did .those were also SB caliber teams that just failed to do it when it counted. home field & a bye did not help one of those teams eaither. Nice to have but far from guarantee to move on even with that better then we have now D. I have faith DB & clan will correct our redzone play then the SB will be within reach.
