Falcons knock off Saints 30-14

12-21-2014, 05:21 PM

We made history today. First time any team went for it on 4th and 9 in the First Quarter.

Horrible, Horrible coaching.

It takes quite a bit out of the game when you absolutely know that #22 will absolutely get the football on absolutely every First Down play.

Our play-calling is high school caliber.

We did not deserve to win today nor did we deserve to host a real football team in the playoffs.

I can (think of one). It has nothing to do with the Saints. It is to do with the "system" of the NFL. The Saints cannot be relegated. So does badly this year and ultimately it is ho-hum, we can come back again next year, and the next, and the next.
The fixtures, the money, the publicity - they are all guaranteed.

On the other side there are some players, maybe most players, and all the fans who get choked up when the team does not meet their expectations.

No matter. Saints will be back in the NFC South, game schedule sorted, selling tickets, being sponsored, selling merchandise, getting television airtime.

teddy, I sent you a PM.

lets just admit it now, we let the 31st ranked defense in the nfl look like it was loaded with all pros. The defense made the falcons UDFA on the OL look like all pros in the making.

swept by the falcons? does not get any worse than this

You cant continue to put this quote on quote sorry ass defense on the field and expect them to stop ppl remember the defense sucks but my question is what the **** happened to our offense cant create drives. No pass attack! No rushing threat! Nothing! I told yall and yes i said it i told yall we need to start looki.g at anoyher qb but most of you dont like it when ppl say it drew hasnt played good in 2yrs straight now! Last year our offense looked suspect but our defense played lights out. This year our defense sucked and our offense brought my suspension to light! We look stagnant at times! We become so predictable! Man we suck as a team. We list horribly in the dome a place where we dominated! Now its not! Fuuuuuuk!

We are not that quick strike O that is for sure.

Yes, dominated on both sides of the line. Simple truth.

Brees was off. Payton was off, RR was off, the secondary and D line were way off, Colston was off, Evans and Grubbs were off. Payton doesn't seem as fiery as he used to be. Maybe 2012 took away the edge the team needs?

A D that goes from 4 to 31 in 1 year with mostly the same people is what cost us the most. 1st ATL game, Cleveland, Detroit, and San Fran were all on the D and we would be NFCS champs already. Gotta start hot and finish strong.
