3 "PAINFUL TO WATCH" games have passed with all of them being devastating to watch because they were so close and within our grasp of winning.
We have the ref's bad calls, the bounty crap lingering, injuries piling on and bad playcalling..

I've created a poll to find out what most Saints fans find most frustrating about this season so far 3 games in with an even tougher schedule coming up.

I'm a die hard fan, but I have to be honest and at the end of that game tonight, it really didn't matter to me if we won because of how terrible we played. KC wanted the game more than us. You tell by the second half performance.

The most frustrating rather disappointing thing about this season is not having Payton around the team.

The most frustrating thing is that the players themselves seem so "whatever" about the whole thing. There's no winning spirit out there, they seem totally ok to lose.

Roger Goodell's overzealous attempt to make an example of this organization with unprecedented punishments reached using inconclusive evidence.

Then, in no particular order:

Defense
Offense
Bad play calls and bad replay calls

I doubt that seriously.

I too doubt that they are totally ok to lose, but that's not what I see on the field.

Agree with this, no passion, no pride, dumbass decisions when we have an 18 point lead,

Drew you wouldn't normally throw to a WR when he's that we'll covered, so why did you when we have an 18 point lead?

The most depressing thing is watching the O being lathargic and looking like they want to get off the field, then putting the D out there for 13 mins per quarter and expecting a stop

I kind of expect and still expect the defense to struggle as it adapts, makes adjustments... so I'm frustrated with the defense, but not at all surprised. This may sound rather bizarre, considering the fact that the KC running game just tore us to shreds, but I've seen some things that have been improved this year as opposed to the previous years. Of course there is still a ton of work to be done, but i'm really optimistic that it'll get there.

Not having Payton coaching right when our talent is at our peak is frustrating.

The offense is where the biggest frustration comes from for me currently.. especially the offensive line. The unit has just looked downright horrible in pass protection. I'm not sure if the reason is Payton not being there... or the fact that we have some replacement players taking over for guys in previous years; but something really has to be done. To me so far, it's the biggest difference from last year and tbh if we got the same production out of the O-line as we had in previous years, we'd be 3-0 right now.
