This team looks scared and out of place often. Watch the bad angle Byrd takes on the first Murray TD, then another play where it should have been a tackle for loss instead it`s a 25 yard gain. I hardly see any really tackling, everybody seems so focused on stripping the ball. A stop on third down IS a turnover!!!

Last season the defense got worse as the season went on. We beat up some rookie QB at home, like the Bills game, but other teams also had a field day against us.

The fire on the Dline is non existing, that was there last season. Last year they covered up some holes on the secondary, this year without any real pressure the secondary looks completely lost.

As for the offense: 2 drops on the first drive, that should have gone for a combined 40 yards. Jimmy Graham that looks lost on the field and the fumble just made his performance worse.

Brees seems to have lost his throwing power, don`t get me wrong he made some awsome throws - f.e. Kenny Stills 46 yarder - but the short bullets I have not seen this year.
