Saints Stars of the Game...

Offense: WR Brandin Cooks - 7 rec, 77 reyds, 1 retd; 1 ru, 18 ruyds

Defense: DL Tyrunn Walker - 1 sack, 1 QB knockdown

Realize a ton of money was just spent on Galette, but why not pull him for Walker who was more effective?!?

Not worried yet, but if we lose next week then I'll start worrying, I'm convinced Rob will get things straightened out, and we still finish 11-5

How so ? Brees only had 1td all game ! We had 3 rushing. The pass wasn't working and us running the ball is what got us the lead twice !

The pass wasn't working? What game were you watching?

Take away the Colston fumble and it's likely a win and we're praising our aerial assault. Our offense was in no way remotely responsible for this loss

Got to run the ball, we learned last year winning in the cold on the road...

You gotta be balanced, and you gotta run the ball...

Agree, but that wasn't the problem today.

Sure it was part of the problem...

You run the ball, they don't have the ball...

Your defense is less exposed...

There's plenty of blame in this loss, but abandoning the run was as much of the problem as the turnover battle, mistackles, timely penalties, ineffective pass rush...

I disagree. I'm all about balance on offense and running more may have lowered the scoring, but you still have to stop the other team period.

Well, CBS Sportsline just crashed, guess I'll have to wait and see how the Roto team is doing later...
