Saints win over Eagles

Short and sweet.......

Vote and discuss... This should make for some good conversation and help us understand what to expect next week.

The Saints know the Falcon. We the fans know the Falcons. Their "undefeated record" is only as good as the opponents they'ved faced. Heck even Mike and Mike have a hard time saying thier the best.

The defense will give up big plays and it will be close. However the Saints will hand Atlanta thier 1st loss of the season.

oh wait this was about the Eagles game lol

I think it's a combination of we played better and the Eagles are just god awful.

It was hella good to see us play with some swagger last night. If we carry that over to next week's game, anything could happen.

The Eagles o-line is awful, as much as I would like to say it was Vicks fault, nobody could play & win behind them. Offense look very good, couple bad plays but nothing like the Denver game. Defense was a lot better but gave up big plays, awful tackling on the backs, they did their job in the redzone so thats a positive. For every positive its a step in the right directions. This week I hope they focus more on wrapping the backs up.

Sproles can't sack the QB and the Denver game showed we are not so wonderful either.

Pretty even spread so far...

I really think it was a combination of all 3. We played better, the eagles are awful and Sproles being out made us a little less predictable. I also think this was a big confidence builder, and after this game I feel that we will beat the falcons this upcoming Sunday.

The Eagles had their way with us up until the interception. That gave us momentum......which is something we haven't really had this year. The defense played with some motivation after the interception. Which put the Eagles playing from behind the rest of the game. That's how Carmichael likes to script it.
Ivory came out pounding the rock and Ingram followed suit. PT was fired up too. Our backs ran harder than they have all year. Personally, I believe that Ivory was the spark the offense needed to get back in the groove.
