Those two losses are hard to take but they may be a blessing in disguise, it looks like we've learned quite abit from those losses

It could serve us well for the rest of the season making us mentally tough.

It kills me to think that we could be 7-1 and one of the best teams in the league. Although I think we're better off as underdogs. This team could get red-hot going into the post-season. Maybe those losses helped bring this team back where they needed to be. Still a lot of football left.

The only negative is the amount of hits on Brees. However we did overcome some nasty turnovers.

A great result. Really pleasing considering where we were two weeks ago. Sets me up for a great weekend too: Sean Payton and Drew Brees' autobiographies were delivered to my doorstep yesterday - I can't wait to get into them.

5 of the next 8 at home (3 in a row)

There isn't a team in the NFL that isn't afraid of what's transpired in NOLA!

Yeah, nobody is gonna want to come to our house.

Where is everybody? I mean members here. Seems like if we lose a game we almost overload the server with people comin to whine.

Win 2nd game in a row and take division lead and, crickets??

GREAT win - just what we needed!

That last TD drive reminded me of 2006 game against the Eagles where we ran off over 7 minutes, kicked a FG and beat them while their offense stood watching helplessly on the sidelines...

So did Patrick Robinson on deflecting a pass and what a thing of beauty seeing the old DE Hicks collapsing the pocket so Jordan and Gallete could attack the edges

Did anyone notice how Roman Harper forgot which team he was playing for and pop one of his own teammates DE 94, leaving him lying on ground in pain? I don't think I ever seen Harper hit anyone that hard.

I had to leave in the 3rd quarter cause some friends came over.

But, it was a GREAT WIN -- on the road.

What did I say? Road Warriors started tonight!!
