Khiry was as good...

And Pierre looked like his jersey of 23 not his age...

We need to be apologizing to Bailey , he's never even in limp mode looked
That bad

How anyone can blame this loss on anything other than the defense is beyond me. We gave up 568 yards for crying out loud. To put that in perspective in 2012 when we gave up the most yards in NFL history our worst game was 530 yards against Denver and Carolina.

Passes, Touchdowns were completed on all the defensive backs, Ryan had too much time to pass...

Galette p***ed me off on one play, when he attempted some kind of ugly spin move and just quit, Ryan stood there for another 2 seconds before Galette got his arse in gear...Premature Contract...

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?!?

[Danno]

Wow, you guys must be drunk. You're not making sense at all, overreacting and all over the place. Rapid fire bitterness

[Saintaintso]

What's not making sense danno , the part where we should've protected our defense ?

[jeanpierre]

As I said...This loss was on Drew and his interception...

This loss was on Junior Galette who couldn't get a sack on a backup lineman...

This loss was on Kenny Vaccaro who forgot how to tackle...

This loss was on Patrick Robinson and his ten yard cushion...

This loss was on Zach Strief and his stupid penalty on an inferior defender...

This loss was on Marques Colston and his fumble...

This loss was on Coach Payton and his lack of discipline to run the ball...

There's plenty to review, correct...

Could it be that Rob Ryan improved our D last year with smoke and mirrors and he's been figured out. Poor LBs, average secondary and D-line equals no defense. I also agree that we should've run the ball a lot more. How many total rushes did we have?

[TheOak]

Lets keep our frustration focused on anything other than members here and our dogs. The team lost. Regardless of how we chose to vent, none of us here caused the loss.

Personally I am blaming my wife, she left the house at the end of the 1st Qtr.
