2-3 going into the bye week; 1 game back of division lead

LOL

Come on you have to laugh. As crappy as this team has been we still have a great chance even to win the division, and the division is hot garbage.

Is this the Super Bowl contender most thought? No way. But there's still plenty reasons to keep watching. Even after all this. I find that amazing.

Man, at least they continued to fight. Drews gotta stop with those bone head interceptions though. Thats getting old real quickly. Well-timed bye if you ask me. Maybe they can turn the ship around and get rolling. Defense played relatively well, despite the 31 points, 14 were mainly from Drew.

Add that this was a hard win. They came back from behind. It was at SDome. You know the media and their opponents will go with that "Saints W at home only."
The S have something to build on right now before they were too far down at week 5.
They have a lot of work to do during these next two weeks.

Long schedule ahead with early Bye-week.

All tough teams coming up, for S this year anyway.

I've been wondering if Drew has had an eye exam lately.

Even though they fought their way back to a victory it was at home & it still seemed like a puny effort. If this game was played on the road I think they may have lost it. At least they are keeping us engaged by being 2-3.

Too bad Carolina won but they have yet been able to put back to back winning seasons together.

The boneheaded INT"s and Pick6s are killing this team. I heard Payton ripped him a new one today and he began to throw the ball away after that. True?

He did throw a couple of them away later. You may be correct.

Know what I find amazing, we could be 4-1 right now....weird

Brees does need some coaching from Payton, but one thing Payton can't fix is that weak ass arm he is dealing with. Have we seen any long throws this year? I dont mean long as in YAC I mean bombs that actually work.

I didn't want to believe the people saying Brees has lost it. I even defended him before the season, but now it's hard to deny that Brees just can't throw the deep ball anymore.
