Considering all the punishment that was levied before being proven, IMO, a winning season is an excellent accomplishment.

I guarantee you that there isnt another team in the NFL that would do as well as the Saints if they had to play an entire season under the same conditions as the Saints!

I doubt that 10-6 will get the Saints in the post-season without some other teams losing.

I can't put this one on the defense, sorry. 2 pick-6's.... nuff said. I think only 1 team has ever come back from 2 pick-6's in a game and actually won.

TURNOVERS.

Oline did a great job until it crumbled. We are SUPER hurt on o-line, and Craigslist won't help.

You should be a coach! Can you play OL too?

Done.

Tragedy.

Done.

We can only watch and cheer for the '9ers or Packers from here on out.

This WAS the playoffs for us.

I doubt we go 10-6 at this point

SaintsBro · 11-25-2012, 09:22 PM

it was a disappointing loss. That said,two pick sixes almost in a row is a little too much for anybody to bear. That's almost kind of crazy, where you just have to throw the playcalling sheet down to the turf and stomp on it and tell people to freestyle. The next thing you get after that with no running game is a Smith Sandwich. Some of you people need to take 2 aspirin and just go to bed. Just wasn't our night.

AlaskaSaints · 11-25-2012, 09:25 PM

Our night?

Week 12 we learn it's not our SEASON.

Knew that, but had HOPE.

There's that word again.

I thought the defense played well enough to win. Drew did not. Simple, it really is. You don't throw a pick, let alone a pick six with 38 seconds left in the half. Of course the defense will get the blame, not our coveted 100 million savior, who by the way almost got Marques paralyzed or even worse by throwing one high over the middle. I wet my pants watching that one

While I agree with you that the pick 6 at the end of the first half was just stupid, was that all on Brees or did he just run Carmichael's stupid play call?

That is a GREAT question, Man. Too bad we have such lame negative nelly sports media reporters like Jeff Duncan and Pete Finney -- someone should have really asked Joe Vitt that question from the podium, "whose play call was that, anyway?"

Seconds before it happened there was a huge debate among the fans in my row of seats, over whether we should run the ball and clock, or go for the jugular....
