In my opinion week 2 will show our season

We did plenty of things to lose vs cardinals but it's not like we didn't do anything positive.

However, if we are going to be a team that; drops 4 interception opportunities a game, allows huge runs up the middle on 2nd and 12 or can't score a TD in 4 redzone trips then I'm afraid it'll be another long season.

I understand the Cardinals have a decent Defense, I don't quite get people calling them SB contenders, all I saw was a veteran team beating on a handful of rookies and Sean Payton being too stubborn to call anything but a screen pass.

Obviously we'd like to see improvement in week 2 (I'd like to see a blowout)
Just remember last season when people said "atleast we play the bucs"
Remember what happened, we squeaked a win in overtime and then they threw the game in week 17 to get a better draft pick.

Do not underestimate this team, they know our entire offensive playbook (not that it's hard to learn, I can call our plays from the formation now)

We can't go into Tampa with;

Brandon Coleman catching TD's then dropping crucial first down catches
Marques Colston dropping 5 passes a game
Offense not taking advantage of opportunities to score
We certainly cannot settle for field goals every single trip.
Defense needs to take advantage of turnover chances
Jameis Winston threw a pick 6 his first ever pass, we need to get pressure on him and force mistakes.

Finally, Sean Payton needs to man up and be the aggressive coach that he signed up as.
All I've seen since 2012 is a conservative game manager who waits for other parts of the team to play badly and then jumps on that person, completely ignoring the fact that the offense is putting the defense in some very bad situations.
