Not much. Consider this:

2002 Saints started 3-0. Things looked great. Then...we finished 9-7, with 3 straight losses and 3rd in the Division.

2001 Saints stared 4-1! We finished 7-9 and got destroyed the last 4 games by an average of 27 pts!

I just wanted to put things in perspective. Yes we look bad. Yes we have some serious concerns, no question. But at the end of the day a play or two and we could easily be 3-0. These were all close contest and it looks as if we are getting better, even if slighlty, every week. Could we go on an 8-0 run? Of course we could. It's not doom and gloom yet.


If we were getting beat by 2-3 scores then yes, I would concede it's hopeless but it's far from it. We may not be capable of handing out beatings but we can still right this ship and make the playoffs. It's way too early to fold and I hope everyone who is a true Saints fan understands this fact. Winning the division may be wishful thinking but a wild card is totally within reason.

I wouldn't eb shocked at all if we upset the Packer next week.

Defense better be able to flip that switch quick, oh wait the offense needs to do the same...
