yeah worth more when we trade him, good point!

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

We are damaged goods but that is not Payton's fault.......loyalty to under performing players and coaches doesn't help though.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

I feel your frustration. This is going to be 7-9 for the 4th time in the last 5 seasons. We're stuck in mediocrity. Not good enough to make the playoffs but not bad enough to get a high draft pick. I know drafting a guy in the top 5 doesn't guarantee he'll be good but if you make the right pick that early you're looking at a stud. Add that to our horrible cap situation and it's the reason we seem to be running in place year after year.

Front office, coaching staff or both, changes need to be made this offseason.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Who do you want with the first pick? Edge rusher, LB, corner, GUARD?

Lord knows we need em all.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Thomas is a no.1 wide out and the best person that could of beat Colston's record

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Ingram's gonna absolutely lose it if they don't let him run the ball and get these 16.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

head coach?

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

He got it Chris.

Nice.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Good job Ingram got your 1000 yards on a hard run

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Half of to do list done..dont look like i missed much..good job on a 1000 yrd season Ingram. And congrats to our rookie WR. At least something came out of this nightmare.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

And a TD to finish off the day for Ingram.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Damn, I sure hope Cooks is ok.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Agreed.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Sweet on sides kick. This new assistant seems to be helping.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Now lets fire that garbage in front of him and make him the ST coach.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Michael Thomas is a really good WR. Mechanics, routes, off the line separation etc. He doesn't play like a rookie ...at all. His future is very, very bright.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

:stupid:

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Yeah we landed a stud for sure. Our receivers are really good. We just need to fix the oline and our offense will remain in the top of the NFL.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Fix the O-line and we'll throw up 50 burgers every week.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Our draft needs to be focused on the D again. But between the draft and free agency, we should be able to fill the deficiencies we currently have. I think we will be a lot closer to competing then we realistically were this year.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Fleener route running is pure garbage.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Can we sucker someone into a trade for him?

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Saints officially own pick #11 in the draft!

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Wow. We might be able to find another impact player.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

I'll take it. There should be a sound pass rusher available/impact LB etc when it's our turn to step up to the podium.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

We got Rankins later than that. Maybe.........just maybe.......

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Well, after the first half fiasco the Saints actually played a good second half and kept the score a lot closer than I thought it was going to be.

If fact there were a couple of occasions when the camera cut to Ryan on the sideline and you could tell by his facial expression that he was thinking "oh my god we could actually lose this game"! ha! ha!

GEAUX SAINTS!!!!!!!

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Nothing has changed on the D side. Pi$$ poor game plan going into the game and then in the 2nd half Allen pulls his head out of his a$$. He gives the illusion he's good but it is just an illusion. I hope this was his last game as DC and the 'good ole boys' entire staff. 7-9 again!!

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

The Falcons knew what was coming, and used it to spoil the Saints' finale and build a huge lead | Saints | theadvocate.com

“They knew kind of something we were in,” safety Jairus Byrd said. “(Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan) knew where to go with the ball right away. There was some quick decisions that he was making.”

“They knew what we were going to do at times,” cornerback Sterling Moore said. “They were calling out some of our plays. Regardless of that, I told guys beat the guy in front of you. I don’t care if they know what we’re in or not. Just beat the guy in front of you.”

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

The falcons are doing to us what we used to do to past top 20 defenses. There really is no defense for that without a QB/offense that can respond. Then the defense will get better. Too many times the defense has to always do something before the offense and it's not right.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Watching Jared Cook. Unlike Fleener that guy can easily create separation. Fleener is always with defender stuck on him. Awful FA signing.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Don't need 11 on each side of the ball.
4-5 play makers on each side of the ball,
then role players to fill in the gaps.
60 or so plays on each side of the ball...
where players only have to be good on the 5-10 plays that come there way.
We don't have enough "play makers"...
guys that fall on a fumble and hold it...
touch an INT and actually catch it...
grab a guy on 3rd-and-8 and actually make the tackle...
get open on 3rd down and actually hold on to the ball...
We have a bunch of almost(s).
Hard to win consistently like that.

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

michael Thomas is a rookie! Stop playing

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

It's not like the Falcons would cheat or anything...

Re: OFFICIAL SAINTS FALCONS GAMEDAY THREAD
 

Oh, that's their f*cking arses next season...Sean better make this right...
