Please tell me how you had confidence that the defense was going to keep the Chargers from getting into FG range, if not score a TD?

Our offense was a lot more balanced in this game than most other games. Continuing to stick to the run and trusting in it to not only take the lead but to burn clock. 9 times out of ten they would have all been passing plays that burned no more than 20 seconds off the clock.
The fact he did it when we were behind is totally uncharacteristic of Payton.
I say this is one of the better games he has coached in a long time.

Hey were in a three way tie for second place in the division.
We have a Bye and hopefully get some guys back.
The best thing today is the Saints didn't quit, thanks
to a few unimaginable breaks.
The good Lord still likes Drew.

He did it the last time the Saints were in the playoffs against the iggles!

I think we have crossed lines.
In my opinion, we scored far too fast and left the chargers ages to score. To clarify, I still had no belief the D was going to stop them and thought the Chargers would win.

Luckily for us, they shot themselves in the foot.

Well this thread certainly feels premature now, doesn't it?

But I'd agree it's time at least ask the question if for no other reason than...

it'd probably be healthy for both Payton and the team to turn the heat up...

I'm relieved to get any kind of win after all the ways this team has found to lose. Not a very impressive performance by the offense. They don't have enough injuries on that side to make any excuses, and they really didn't look good most of the day. Thank goodness for the defense finally creating turnovers.

So yeah, a relieving win. There are definitely a lot of things that need to be cleaned up.

Tackling had better be one of those areas!

For sure. Tackling, penalties, Brees' continual struggles on the road. He was very inaccurate today, even on some completions. I don't know what happens to him on the road. And of course the offensive line is still very up and down.

A win is a win, though. Hopefully this will help the team refocus. I'm not expecting much, but I know the offense can be better.

Some things that never change and always has me getting loud at the TV. Poor clock management and use of time outs. When he gets behind by two or more scores, THEN he wants to run the ball. And amazingly, the Saints have the slowest hurry up offense in the NFL.

And today after driving straight down the field on the first drive with Ingram, the next two drives were a mixture of Hightower and Lasco. ????? He gets way too cute sometimes and out thinks himself.
