Drew Brees: The Denver Broncos Game Lit a Fire Within All of Us

ChrisXVI · 11-01-2012, 08:05 PM

I remember reading something along the lines of we could have our 2nd round pick back but we would have to give up 2 or 3 later round picks. Maybe someone can help me out with that because I know I read it on this board.

Day late and a lotta dollars short, Drew.
Lost the attitude . You just got out scored by QBs from Washington-Carolina-Kansas City. If that didn't lite the fire, losing to Peyton Manning wont.
Play like your paid to play & we win. No one can keep up. We have a bad defense but the offense is seriously underperforming. Best defense is points on the board.

Actually our problem is the other way around... the best friend of the offense is a defense that can keep points off of the board. The Saints offense is still ranked in the top 5 this season. Our defense on the other hand... historically terrible.

In 2009 we won it all by scoring 100+ points on the 3 best teams. This year we started by scoring 83 against 3 bottom feeders. That one score a game changes a lot. Don't get me wrong the defense is bad but the offense isn't helping any.

Our defense forcing 39 turnovers didn't hurt either
If I remember correctly we had 6 of them returned for TD's

Our offense is scoring early but then going 3 and out in the worst possible times, our defense is pathetic but our offense puts us in bad position late in the game when Carmichael goes conservative with his playcalling

Hartley makes 2 kicks and....oh well that whole Atlanta thing again.

For some reason I keep seeing the old Jim Mora "Playoffs" quote

With a reference to "Lit a fire" instead.

With everything that has happened to this team over the last year.

A lousy showing on a national stage is not what I believed would "lit a fire under this team".

Talk is cheap. And we have no Defense to speak of.

Something tells me we beat the Eagles, lose a squeaker to the Falcons, and then the wheels come completely off...
