Agreed, and it was game 1. For all we know they could be this years SB champ. I think the rookies did better than last years veteran defense and they can still get better. We get a couple guys back from injury at the right time and things may look a lot brighter.
Im not saying we are a legit contender, I just had very low expectations. I didnt think we would have a winning season. Now I think we can win maybe 10 games. If we can sneak into the playoffs anything can happen.

Im cautiously, somewhat excited about some of the young guys, like hawlouie kikihahabooga- spelling?) He's exciting. Stephone Anthony could be something real. Hokie's high on Breaux. (thats not a drug metaphor) after yesterday, I could feel it too. Maybe we're headed to the Bottom. I think, more likely, a couple of these young guys will emerge into The Schizznitf, and we'll have some bright stars. Had you ever heard of Jimmy Graham before?

Swap two of our FG's for TD's and we still lose. Still short a TD. Colston can easily be covered. If the ball is on target and anyone is close, it's getting swatted down more often than not or flat out dropped. 4th down call, no. Go for it. Put the ball in the hands of your best players not in the hands of a shaky defense. Brees to Cooks or Snead. If they can't get 6 yards then yes, we should lose.

actually we did better than i expected.

next two games will be key

bring on the bucs

SaintsBro · 09-14-2015, 10:34 AM

This game was basically over early in the 1st/2nd quarter, when the Saints failed to score touchdowns on their first 2 or 3 drives with the ball. Like it was in 2012 and a lot of the time last year, this year the offense needs to score a touchdown EVERY TIME THEY TOUCH THE BALL because we know the defense is going to routinely give up 31 points or more, in back-breaking fashion, or always give up the first down or the score, at the worst possible times. I know while the game was going on, it kinda felt like the game was close for a time, or that it could maybe go either way at some point, but in reality Arizona was firmly in control, the whole time, they manhandled us on both sides of the ball and the game was never really ever in doubt. They had the lead from the opening drive until the final gun. Maybe the Bucs will be more our speed.
