I actually disagree, I feel better coming out of this game than at any other point this season

At least the defense showed some signs of life.

It looks like Suh is rubbing off on the rest of that defense. >.<

On that Tate TD, White made usual WTF play and Vaccaro missed game saving tackle.

spkb25 · 10-19-2014, 03:48 PM

The Goodwin injury hurt, a lot. They started getting a lot of pressure

You feel better that our D got lazy with a lead and let one player juke 4 of ours with 4 minutes to go?

Then future HOF throws his 7th pick in 6 weeks to add insult to injury?

Lions won because we couldn't put the game away with 5 minutes left. Instead of scoring a TD, we kick a stinking FG to go up 23-10 instead of 27-10 with 5 minutes left.

Blame the refs if y'all want, but giving up a 73 yard TD with less than 4 minutes to go and up by 13 is pure hot garbage.

Vaccaro is terrible, can't tackle at all.

Was you saying the same, when he got that bizarre deflection pick? or last year was he horrible?

I didn't have a problem with them passing to try and pick up first downs. I did however have a problem with the score 20-10, instead of showing a killer instinct they played conservatively and kicked a field goal to go up 23-10. I had a bad feeling from then on.

You can't put the loss on any one person, but the team as a whole just does not have any killer instinct. As soon as they get a good lead they stop playing.

I sorry but Brees should no longer be considered "elite", if we had Rodgers or Manning or Brady we would have won this game along with others this year. I am not saying Brees is done, but Brees is no longer a winning QB and he is no longer elite in my opinion.
