we just do not have the quality of depth to pull it off. the saints did not have the DL depth as a priority in the off season.
And the coach has inactivated NT Jenkins for some foolish reason. Now that Bunkley is hurt, lets hope SP's hurt feelings over Jenkins weight/effort/whatever will take the backseat it should and allow the young 'un to play.

Brees was 38-45 for 362 yards. 2tds and 1int. That's a pretty good game. This whole team let the fans down, not Drew.

And whoever calls the plays helped him. Whatever happened to running the ball and the clock (especially if you've a 2 TD lead)? No way Brees should've been throwing over 40 times (again). Run the darn ball!

What do you mean? Jenkins was active today... substituted in and out and then became the #1 when Bunkley was out with the concussion...

I actually think that Lofton played great in this game. He had some nice tackles and stops when he was in coverage. We coul'd use better but he was one of the bright spots today on D.

Re: Brees killed us with his INT

John Jenkins had one tackle for loss but he took on double and some times triple teams all game long. some thing that has been missing. I think his play made a big impact on the saints DL play today. huge improvement against the run in between the tackles.

oh yeah 1 PD also

we need depth and talent so we can freaking rotate players through out the game to keep people fresh. It is hard to judge players when they are on the field some 90% of the time. our starters log to much time on the field especially up front. the saints have down a poor job of getting quality back ups on this team. so raging players seems pointless when they are run into the ground game after game.

but i am getting tired of saying that year after year.

can anyone on the defense be upgraded? sure. there are only a couple that are truly keepers long term. given the facts stated above.

I'm soo freaking pissed right now!! aaagggh!!
I don't always defend Drew. I simply call it as I see it.

Re: Brees killed us with his INT

Drew was killing the Lions all day. Meanwhile the run game averaged less than 2yds per attempt.

Run the ball???
