First, I don't recall seeing a single post saying the Saints would go 15-1.

Second, no one believes the Saints defense is fixed, but IMO it is a helluva lot better than the Chinese fire drill we had last year.

Third, once again injuries are devastating the defense.

Fourth, for the most part I thought our O-line played fairly well today.

Finally, I am not going to write off the season after the first regular season game; that would be like someone claiming the Saints were going to the Super Bowl after they went 4-0 in the pre-season.

Raiders were contained for almost 3 full quarters. Had 3 plays along for 145 yards. We just blew it and penalties sealed the deal. We are better on defense than last year. Without that one run they would've only rushed for 92 yards and that's good in my book. Secondary injuries are killing us and we need to make some moves now or our season is doomed.
