I wouldnt write the Saints off just yet

I think they need to come out the tunnel on Sunday night and be loose, pumped up, feeling good, and HAVE FUN. Everything has been so yucky and stressful so far, the one thing that's been missing from every game since preseason, is FUN. Interceptions and penalties and pressures and late collapses....all these junky football plays are STRESSFUL. They're hard on the fans, they're hard on the players, they're hard on the team chemistry.

Nobody on the team is having any FUN playing the game, or enjoying BEING AWESOME at what they do. If they can clean up the mistakes and stop the self-destruction and get that swagger back, I say look out.

I feel like they need ONE big play on Sunday night, like Meachem's strip against Washington, or one of Jimmy's famous diving catches, an unexpected blocked punt or a bit of Payton playcalling razzle-dazzle, to douse this dumpster fire and be RIGHT back to looking like the Saints of old. ONE BIG PLAY could get the Dome roaring, and then the Saints would suddenly be IN this game.

They need to have one of those games where Payton just winds the whole team up and then lets it go, spins it like a child's top, and lets it go spinning around crashing into stuff. If they play a flat, dull, lifeless home game like they did against Minny or Tampa Bay, they will get CRUSHED.

The thing is, they are so DUE for this kind of game; like the rout of the Panthers in prime time last year, that basically defied all logic if you compared it to the rest of the season and the game we played against the same team two weeks later. How did the Saints even do that? They had the swagger, that's how!

We need something to ignite the team

I can remember in 2011 when we played the giants, we got the ball back with 50 seconds to go in the half and the commentators were like "New Orleans will probably run the clock out here and go into half time"

BANG - out route to colston that he takes 53 yards, TD before half time and we are 27-10 up, getting the ball back in the 2nd half

We really need to see something like that
