Replay made Dallas lose. For that reason alone I support it.

I would jump off but we're going down hill so fast I'm afraid I would hurt myself in the fall.

Some people just handle a humiliating loss like last nights different than others. You need to take this post over to SR.com where it belongs. Had there been a option to thumbs down this thread I would have given it to you. We are all upset and some people vent more than others. We fans don't need to be hacking on each other over stuff like that.

I agree, everyone is going to take the loss differently. If some what to b**** more then others, then its ok. We are having a bad season, so its natural that a lot are going to complain, but just because someone is saying that we have bad team does not mean they are a bandwagon fan. Any true fan knows when to admit when his team is bad and when to admit when they are good. Also to the OP, calling people idiots on here is not going to make you any friends. You can always go to SR if you don't like it here, but I warn you, its not pretty over there.

Denver game planned well for the Saint's offense, didn't have to game plan much for the defense. Everyone getting a little testy, whomever had any criticism for the offense or Drew Brees is just dead wrong.

Sean Payton is a great coach, and we clearly miss his leadership, but for those who would rather make excuses for this team than to look at reality, consider this:

After Bill Cowher won the Super Bowl with the Steelers and retired, they brought in a guy who I dare say probably none of us had a clue who he was, in Mike Tomlin. He hasn't missed a beat, and has won a Super Bowl of his own, and almost had another.

And after Tony Dungy retired from the Colts, they promoted Jim Caldwell, another no name, to head coach. He promptly takes them to the Super Bowl where our Saints beat him, of course. But last year Peyton Manning couldn't play, and so the Colts went in the tank and Caldwell was fired.

The moral of this post is that while it's nice to have your head coach, if the players are good enough they should be able to continue doing what they do best, regardless of who is coaching them. I would absolutely love to have Sean back, but we still have all our players, and unlike the Colts last year we still have our QB. Yet our offense isn't playing close to the level it was last year, and the defense is non existent despite the fact it actually gained a couple of pieces in the offseason. The play calling could surely be better, but these guys are playing awful. Also, I'm tired of reading posts saying things like "you're crazy if you blame the offense"... They deserve every bit as much blame.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
