Amen Brother were not out yet, I am encouraged by the improvement
of parts of the Defense. But our secondary needs to step up another
level. However a lot of teams in the League are dealing with banged up
secondary's I think it's the nature of the beast.

Breaux did not look healthy, thomas ran a slant and Breaux just jogged behind him.

Who gets blamed for that though? Do we now start telling the centers to stand up to create contact among players trying to jump oversowe can get the call? Because the center was DEFINITELY touched

Re: Disappointed, very

We all need to take a deep breath, settle down and look at this loss rationally:

We lost to an AFC team; virtually no tie-breaking implications

I don't think we play a team as good defensively, (possible exception is Cardinals) the rest of the season.

We are one game out of 2nd place; after we sweep out the litter box Thursday night we will be back at .500 and in second place.

I don't remember any additional injuries that look like they will be long term.

Was this game winnable; absolutely, but aren't all of them?

7-9 with all the hope in the world going into the offseason, and it's likely we'll do the same thing next year. Lol

Edit: I'll have to throw another loss in there to get that 7-9 but you get the point... Same season 3 years running...

The only games that I am even mildly concerned about are Rams & Arizona; I believe we run the table in the division, and I don't see Detroit beating us.

What do detroit do well? Make 4th quarter comebacks, they have 5 so far.

What do the Saints do well? Give away leads in the 4th quarter...

I'm with you here. I keep saying the real key games will be against the Panthers and Lions games if the Saints are to make it to a wild card spot. Unfortunately one of those key games is an away game on Thursday night.

EDIT: I am almost with you here. The losses to the Broncos and Raiders do have tie breaker implications. Win-loss % against common opponents is the 3rd tie breaker.

Re: Disappointed, very

I don't think it's been mentioned but our special teams is very bad this year.

Circle back to Giants game (blocked fg), Oakland (missed fg for a win) & Denver (blocked PAT & subsequent score). Our kickoff return turn team looks clueless out there. Hightower and Cadet have no awareness on returns.

McMahon should have been fired last year.
