The New Orleans Saints forced no turnovers while Drew Brees threw for 3 INT's in yet another disappointing loss in a very winnable game against the Bucs 11-16.

The Saints defense contained James Winston all day long, but the offense sputtered and rolled to its fewest offensive yards in the first quarter in Sean Payton's career, along with tons of mistakes and penalties. The Saints are now 5-8 and their post season hopes are all but over for a third straight season.

Re: Saints crumble against Bucs - Another disappointing loss

3rd and 1 is the swan song of the season for the saints. All season long it comes up way to often. I can not blame Drew. It has been happening all season long and I would not be surprised to see we lead the NFL in 3rd and 1.

That rest squarely on the WR/TE and route running. Gotta get past the sticks first then catch the ball. this is mental

Blame Payton and this awful coaching staff.
Since Payton has taken over calling plays the offense has been awful. Not the first time this has happen.

Feel bad for Brees, that window is starting to shut.
With how bad this team has been for 3 years you have to look at the coaching first... Folks it's time for Payton to go!

On a bright note I thought Anthony played the run pretty tough. They were not able to get their run game going.

Defense as a whole played well.........it figures we get that part of the game cleaned up then the Offense goes into a nose dive. Even the special teams play has improved.

Still pulling the "fire SP' wagon. Plenty of room left.

Fleener and his 8 yard reception really pissed me off. Easy first down for most NFL receivers.
