Re: Hope Springs Eternal (Even @ 0-4)
Here are some comparisons between that '92 Charger team and the Saints of '12 through the first four games:
- Net Points: -66 versus -20 - Net Turnovers: -5 versus 0 - Sacks: 6 versus 6 - Sacks Given Up: 12 versus 9 - Defensive Interceptions: 4 versus 2 - Offensive Interceptions: 11 versus 5 - Kickers: Carney 7 of 9 versus Hartley 6 of 8 Coincidentally, they both had Week 6 Bye Weeks. You could have written off those '92 Chargers after a shutout loss to the Oilers in Week 4 and their chances looked far worse than us at this point due to their seeming inability to score. Conversely, we seemingly have an inability to stop opposing offenses but I believe in the team and things will turn around. Brees is *WAY* below the completion percentage of the last two years. He is in fact below 60% (110 of 191 ~ 58%). I imagine that he will return to form and the law of averages can only help us. Do not write these Saints off just yet. We are going to turn the corner this Sunday. As you can see from SaintFan's picture, the Fat Lady is not singing. SDSaint |
