Re: SAINTS CHIEFS LIVE THREAD
It seemed this team was determined to lose this game. I'm sure there will be people talking about how they fought because it was a close game. But the fact is that they gave this game away in a number of ways. The turnovers, the stupid penalties, especially Fairley's incredibly selfish penalty.
Until this team learns how to play on the road, they won't get any pat on the back from me. I get that it's loud over there. Is that why you fumble, or knock a ball up in the air for a pick 6, or body slam someone with the game on the line? No. Also, was Brees allergic to looking up at the play clock? Crowd noise has nothing to do with being aware of how much time you have. He really did a poor job in that department. Overall, though, it was just a confounding multitude of blunders that lost a game we actually had a chance to win. Getting players back will be nice, but many of these mistakes were made by veterans. |

Lack of discipline on defense. Clean up the penalties.
Seattle up next. |

I thought Hightower played very well at the end of the year, last year, and should have been used at worst in a platoon role this year. Ingram makes less with more. He just doesn't have very good vision. And as you mentioned, is lacking in burst. His best attribute is being able to push through for a little extra when he's in a pile, yet, very confusingly, if someone just puts a hand on him he goes down. The piles hold him up and allow him to churn his legs, but in open space, he's an easy tackle. |
Re: SAINTS CHIEFS LIVE THREAD
i am always saying imagine if ingram had a burst..because he lacks one

I wish we still had GW as our coach, he wasn't afraid to tell Payton "F*** you" when he had to. He made a defense ranked number 9 with Jo Lonn Dunbar at middle linebacker, roman harper at safety and patrick robinson at corner. |

Re: SAINTS CHIEFS LIVE THREAD
You know, if you told me Brees would throw for 367 passing yards, Saints rushed for just over 100 yards and our Defense would have held the Chefs to 326 total yards on offense (112 rushing, 214 passing), there'd been know way I'd believe the Saints would lose this game...
We lost because of Turnovers, Mistackles and Penalties which is a recipe for an undisciplined team... The only coach I'd keep under contract for next season is Aaron Glenn; and now that I said it, Payton and the Mickster will find a reason to release him... |
Re: SAINTS CHIEFS LIVE THREAD
If it helps, the Falcons just lost to the Chargers at home in Overtime...
