Totally frustrated

SaintsBro · 08-25-2013, 02:09 PM

After the whole bounty thing, I'm over it. I'd rather be overlooked or outright hated and be who we are (a great team with a great QB and one of the best coaches in the game) rather than be liked and be mediocre. If you could trade any whole team for our team, swap them out and have them wearing the uniforms and being the Saints instead of the guys who we have right now, I wouldn't take it.

Yes, it can be frustrating, but it seems like the Saints are always at their best when the national media pays no attention to them. The Falcons stuff does get old after awhile. Living up here in Chattanooga, if the sports page isn't talking Titans, they're talking Falcons. I say let them keep talking about the Falcons and crown their butts if they want too, watching the game last night when they played the Titans, I can say that I was not very impressed. Come Sept 8, the Saints are going to show that the Falcons are who we thought they were.

It seems in one year the entire world has forgotten about the offensive juggernaut The Saints are. Completely forgotten about Sean Payton being the best play caller in the game . Completely forgotten about Drew Brees being neck and neck with Brady Manning or Rodgers at any time. Just plain forgot !

Replacement refs started the season out with a bang & not a good one ! Out of Brees Manning Brady and Rodgers none had a winning start ... I'm sure you can see where something is wrong with that statement. I'm sure you see how that can warp a season , playoff seating etc ...

Cam newton is better physically and skillfully than any team employing the read option ... Once the league got film on him BOOM ! Average QB ...
So I expect Kaepernick , RGIII , and Wilson to Struggle just as he did ... Low and behold , they have this preseason ...
Once the gimmicks have gone out the window in the playoffs what will matter is
Whether you have a qb making the proper reads and beating a team with his brain and his arm ... Those QBs aren't going anywhere this season.

Lastly , we're the only traditional QB team that's gotten better ...

I'm done ... 14-2

What really threw the wrench into things was Seattle.

Seattle was pretty much put into the playoffs by the officiating, I could probably find a case where it happened to Washington. Really both were average at best, then the both of them played in order to determine who goes to Atlanta.

If your Atlanta, you licking your chops over that because you getting a team that had no business in the playoffs.

Then you got Atlanta who was overrated and over achieved all season IMO, taking on San Fran, who at least did beat a viable opponent in Green Bay, least I believe they were a little tougher, but at the same time was not the same team we saw in 2010 and 2011 either. If you are San Fran, you should see the SB right behind that little ant pile, yet San Fran goes in there and almost lays an egg.

You see why last season NFC looked so damn bad, to me no one wanted it nor were they really good enough to take it, that went for every NFC team, Seattle pretty much threw the win vs Atl away in the final secs.

But at the same time, the NFL altered too much where the outcome became what it was. I think if we didnt have replacement refs, screw jobs like we saw in Denver and Seattle, the SB picture would be vastly different.

Exactly ... Add us not having our head coach and I don't know why Atlanta is so darn cocky ... Last year was given to them on a platter ... Too late we're back now
