like it or not - defense won that game

Brees and the offense struggled in the second half, adjustments looked lackluster

3 straight 3 and outs when we could have killed this game at 20-17, the defense held falcons on all those drives and even though they allowed alot at the end they came through for us

Harper with two turnovers!!! How many sacks did we get? 4-5?

I actually like our defense, the D line looks awesome, couple of bad plays allowed but overall a very good debut against a team that was one game away from the superbowl

Held the high flying offense that will win the nfc south to 17 points!

Our offense needs to get on track

How could you not love it... A defense is the only thing between us and the Superbowl.

Re: like it or not - defense won that game

I thought the d played good today, very good. I thought the offense did too. The offense can play better, which I hope is a good thing.

That said even when it looked like we might lose people started blaming the defense or the offense, I thought we pkayed just a damn good football game today. Both sides of the ball. Way to go guys!!

The offense made the game closer than it should have been.

I would grade the Defense an A and the offense a C+

The thing our defense did that almost cost us the game was that they gave up the big plays. Nothing makes me pull the hair out of my head more than watching a Harry Douglas catch a long pass on third and long or watch Sjax run down the field.
