Dang it.

We're better than this.

I mean, son of a we're just better than this.

3 of 4 to open the season on the road. As bad as we've played (and we've played poorly) we could be 3-1 without much of a leap. I wouldn't be happy with how we arrived there - none of us would, but still, we could very easily be 3-1.

As - poor as we've played, it seems to me, not knowing any more than I know, that all that is wrong is correctable. Like, I don't know, like we're just waiting for that thing to come along and motivate us, you know?



We just need the light to come on. Could it be that the Dallas game (heretofore known to all as "The Beat Down") flipped the switch?

I find it difficult to believe that Sean Payton won't figure a way to flip that switch, even if he has to hot wire the thing.



Amazingly, relative to our NFC South peers, we're only a game off the pace, and relative to our NFC South peers, we have the second best defense and the second best offense - in a very generic and un-scientific way of measure I'll grant you that, but hey, here comes the sun dangit.

So we get Tampa next week at home. That's a win. Confidence going into the bye, which we'll need to take on a tough schedule after our week of rest. Even though I turned off the Cowboys game after the fake punt (surprised I hung around that long actually), I'm all in this week and weeks to come. I just cannot believe this team, with this talent, and this coaching staff, can't get it done.

So who's with me? Bueller? Anyone?



C'mon people. Now. Smile on 'yo brutha Saintfan. Sunshiners unite. We shall overcome. I have a dream!

C'mon Man...

An "I have a dream" speech? Sad we gotta use it after Week FOUR. But hammer it.

I'm all in...I ain't goin' nowhere. Speaking of ain't goin' nowhere, that's what'll happen if we drop to 1-4 and 0-2 in the division. I'll still watch every snap to the very last one, whether if it's in December 2014 or in a victory formation in February 2015.

I just don't see any life left in this team. I'll eat my hat if they pull out of this off the cliff dive they are in.

It was hard to watch that Fake Punt and the rest of the game past that point. But Barry is right who's kidding who we will be here. They will put a Fleur-de-lis on my grave that's for damn sure.

That is all.

There is no hope we are doomed.

So this then?


Too early for the great B.B. King, but 1-4 will be "Turn Out The Lights". We will be doomed. But I still like our possibilities...Ingram will be back after the Bye (I think?) and he will be piss & vinegar & fire, which we desperately need NOW!
