just keep in mind that Drew will feel the need to put 7s on the board every time he steps on the feild

What if he did put up 500 yards a game 5 TDs from now on?

My question is, how can you not be excited and ALL IN after yesterday. That game was completely off the chain. Even rickety old man Colston WALKED INTO the end zone for his TD!!! There was just no one anywhere near him, for like half the field!!! And Cooks strutted in for his TD, doing that straight-legged, kick-step thing like a drum corps leader with a baton would do. How can you not love that?

There's times to be cautiously optimistic and restrained, to measure, to pull on your goattee and squint, to be calculated, to examine the weaknesses and measure all the intangibles. And then there's times to just throw your whole bowl of popcorn in the air, and high five the people all around you, and this was definitely one of those times.

Indeed, I have pulled on my goatee and squinted a lot in the early portion of this season. More of the pulling than the squinting. It helps keep the walls around me intact.

But yeah, I wasn't excited about the defense yesterday, though the score made it look worse than it was. There were some huge mistakes out there that had nothing to do with the Giants. The Giants were lucky in that sense, but it still means the defense was responsible for screwing it up. That said, you can't not be excited about scoring 52. Offense has been this team's identity for a decade.

So even when the defense struggles, when you can score like that, it feels like the old days (not the old, old days). If the defense becomes somewhat consistent, this team has a chance to win any game on the schedule now.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!!!!!

Remember, the Defense allowed 48 points.

Keep the faith, just don't drink the kool-aid.

Technically 42, one TD was a fumble return

Had so much fun watching that game. Wicked cool game of all time, nice to see the old Brees outshoot ELi , and O having fun, but thats all it is.

Unless Saints win what they lost, the - 4 in row vs
Ten = below average
Was= average
Hou = below average
Cam kittens = above average and lucky
,and pay back the below average TB to be 9-4 or 8-5. Winning both divisional games to put the Saints in the running.
Im not drinking the post season bandwagon kool-aid .
An above average team would find a way to win at least 4-1 of these games.

Because only at that point do you have 2 more below average teams, Det, Jax, and a possibility of 10-5 or 11-4.

Problem is our defense is still hot garbage, and lost us most post season games before. They fold like a picnic chair.
3 of the opposing teams sites I was on said the same thing. If Brees had just a decent ,consistent Defense threw out his career in N.O., he would have easily had 2 or maybe more SB wins.
Im just going to enjoy watching the boys win cool games like this, and don't expect much. Fun game.

Saints proved that pigs could fly in 2009.
Now its time for another miracle SuperBowl and go where no pig has gone before.

Always remember one game at a time.

That was a game that pitted the two worse defenses against one another

32 New York Giants 427.5
31 New Orleans Saints 406.2
