this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Good hell. I didn't watch the game....maybe I'm glad. Sounds as though I would've completely lost all hope for the season. Well, if we're really that bad, I get to be blissfully unaware for a couple more weeks....

Re: 5-11 to 7-9
Me too. They didn't look good last night but they didn't look as pathetic as many are saying.
I saw some encouraging signs from a very very young team. We may have the youngest starting defense in the league when the season starts. And we're probably just as young on offense without Strief and Brees. Pittsburgh has an explosive offense (3rd best in the NFL) and they targeted our rookie CB's through the air. We'll be fine, although another injury to Armstead is as concerning as an injury to Brees. If we lose that cat, we're in big trouble. "We've kept things very simple up to this point and so it's not like we're out there with a great game plan and trying to trick people and throwing the kitchen sink at them." -- Drew Brees. I'm sticking with 10-6, but I am a little bit more nervous about it now. |

Just out of curiosity was Pittsburgh able to execute because they were throwing the kitchen sink at us? |

Re: 5-11 to 7-9
SP has had 5 wining seasons and 4 losing seasons. Can we really call him a good NFL coach?

We miss Kromer and why we got rid of Evsns AND Grubbs at the same time baffles me. I heard his pressor. Yes Payton our line does need to get better. Go do something about it. |

Re: 5-11 to 7-9
so he used to be a good head coach. agree, but I don't think he is anymore, and I sure hope I am wrong, but the team doesn't seem to have made any progress in 3 years
