Are We Tough Enough?!?

SloMotion · 11-19-2014, 04:50 AM

How 'bout "physical enough"? Tough Enough was a cheesy Dennis Quaid film in the '80s ... you wouldn't think someone would know an uninteresting, unimportant tidbit/funfact like that, but when you unsubscribe from cable and go full "rabbit ears", you get to see all kinds of cinematic flops that you wouldn't otherwise have the opportunity to enjoy,

That is funny, SloMo.

I do not want the Saints doing cheap shots, illegal hits , and things like that . The game is not that.
I would, yes, like to see some tackles. Legit tackles. Some hustle , fast running out there. What is it with Saints doing a light jog and reaching out to tackle someone? NFL is not touch football.

Tuff , yea it's tuff for me to watch us blow games and not finish. Oh, you meant the finness team out there. No their not tuff at all. No heart!!

I listen to some of Payton's post game pressers.

What I glean from his words is that his view of the game is so "situational" and based on so many factors that it's downright confusing.

Far be it from me to criticize because, hey, who am I right? But damn man - it seems like any team who lines up to kick our teeth in DOES it.

Beat up the line with 4-5 rushers. Limit Brees to short throws and they'll stall in the red zone OR turn it over.

Not mentally. Not physically. Too much ego. Not enough wego.

we need to move training camp to the alps, I mean if you going to go to a vacation destination might as well go higher and get even cooler temps for our guys.

My guess is that Sean Payton is very much attracted to the mointains and valleys of WV

i'm still fuming this is getting all to familiar ball on our part, play our asses off one game then lay down the next.
