Next to GB today was our best game of the year, I thought

Re: The REAL Black & Gold Steps Forward - Saints pound Steelers
 

As far as I am concerned the Saints proved, even with a ball-gargling defense and a pop-gun offense, that they can hang with the big boys.

I am going to be extremely disappointed if the Saints don't hang at least a 40 burger on the kittens next week in the Superdome!!!

I really hope the Saints fans are out in force at the Superdome next week. Loud!!


WHO DAT?!?!!?!

Re: The REAL Black & Gold Steps Forward - Saints pound Steelers
 

I hope we come out and play the same way and give the fans a reason to scream1 We should beat the tires off this Panties team

Re: The REAL Black & Gold Steps Forward - Saints pound Steelers
 

I was impressed with the team that showed up today ! I still do not like how we let Pittsburgh just move down the field when the game was pretty much over but still....

Re: The REAL Black & Gold Steps Forward - Saints pound Steelers
 

If our offense plays mistake free, we're as good as any other offense in the league. If our defense plays their very best, it's STILL not "enough" to win big in my opinion.

Re: The REAL Black & Gold Steps Forward - Saints pound Steelers
 

I agree 100%, I don't know if our Defense just overachieved last year or losing some veterans hurt but we have no strong area on this Defense .... Too have a stud MLB would do wonders....

POUND?

We quit and raced to the finish line to beat the clock. Thirty more seconds and it would be, "Steelers eek out a victory over Saints."

WTF

Re: The REAL Black & Gold Steps Forward - Saints pound Steelers
 

I do wonder if Goodwin is starting so when a injury occurs at G/C Lelito steps in rather than Lelito start and any injury means shifting him to G to slot Goodwin into the lineup. I was all for Goodwin coming back when we didn't get the C in tge draft and think he was fine when the season started but he can stay fit and isn't 100% healthy imo

The pressure for Drew to put up 7s was not there today. for whatever reason, defensive play which was improved today but in no way was spectacular. Or Ben wrist was hurt and he was off target for almost 3/4 off the game. same thing we heard with GB and Aron. does not matter

The saints surrendered 3s in the first half for a change so Drew could go about business as usual. the pressure was off his back.

overall the team looked good as a whole. The bend but do not break approach. Is all we need.
