Watching this defense in 2013 doesn't even in the least give me flashbacks of 2012. |

Giving up 435 yards to an offense that ranked in the 20s before this game is a let down for the Defense. Like I said, I am ecstatic that we got a W but this game has me worried that we can get too comfortable. We played great in the first half and awful in the second. |

Re: Saints vs Bears Game Day Thread
There were a few defensive D plays that sent me flashing back to 2012. Of course this is easy to do because, because I suffer from Post lack of tackling Traumatic Stress. Christ that defense was terrible.
I am glad we won, but do not think that we are as good as we can be. We have some things to work on to be sure, on both sides. I am sure Payton will handle it though. |

If you would have told me that before the game I would say we win easy, but we didn't make any plays in the second half. For the last time, I am happy we won but ill put my rose-colored glasses on when we win the SB. Until then ill be pessimistic when I see poor play on the field. |

I'm also sure Brees was relieved that Brees' didn't break his record for 300 yard games...

Re: Saints vs Bears Game Day Thread
Yeesh, we won against a decent team on the road during a short week, not to mention we kept a team under 20 points for the 5th time this year.
It's like people want this team to lose so they can feel validated for saying that the sky is falling in NOLA. |

Re: Saints vs Bears Game Day Thread
Tough game vs a good team. It was a test for us and we won.
Be happy!!! I'm sure Sean Payton will be calling you guys tomorrow on how to fix being 5-0..... |

Re: Saints vs Bears Game Day Thread
Didn't get to see the game as it wasn't on in our market (Milwaukee) but between the win, Seahawks loss, and Brady not throwing a TD (and losing), this is the best Football day in a LONG time.
GEAUX SAINTS!! |
