It's because they were playing against bad or injured defenses. The Saints are better than both of those teams. Drew played against arguably the best all round defense in the Vikings and arguably the best overall team in the NFL given ten days to prepare. Drew was also missing his two starting LT's.

And, don't forget that the Niners did not score an offensive TD in their first two games.

People can say SA isn't bright and was waste of a pick but his own teammates praise the guy. I give him the eyeball test, judge his play on what I see not what I heard. The guy made plays but by coach decision he haven't touch the field last season and Oschner sideline him so they wouldn't risk any trade with the Dolphins

" Anthony told Dolphins reporters he had "no clue" the Saints were shopping him. Meanwhile, Miami head coach Adam Gase said the two teams had been discussing a potential deal for a while."

The trades the saints made all stink since Super Bowl all because of egos. The next player I am looking at them trading is Kikaha.

And for Payton and the offense. I am tired of them padding the stats making it look like $#!¥ is roses. It is obvious they made moves to improve the defense at the offense expense but Payton want to control the defense with no experience and that's how DA come in to play, someone he can control. 4th quarter no DC will call a all out blitz with inexperienced young secondary not even DA but here come Payton requesting it. Dont get me wrong, I think Payton is a great coach and I appreciate our 1st super bowl but the lack of pressure of being fired and his total control of the organization not just team is the cause for a poor season year after year. Time to wake up and looking at pipe dreams, for how long you look at the same script. We seen 0-2 for what, the last 4 seasons or was it just bad Septembers? I don't remember that is just how bad it's been. I can't look at other teams achievement(Miami) expecting the same from a 7-9 team for the last 3 seasons. That is why I say it's playoffs or Payton gotta Geaux!

If the Saints are better than either team then they should beat the Rams in LA this year.

I think its time to move on with the current regime or at least replace Loomis. He has taken on to much. At first he was just the Saints GM now he has other hats in the Benson empire.

I think its time we bring in our native son - Peyton Manning. If he thinks keeping Sean I am for it but GM we need to do something. And also Dennis Allen needs to go today not tomorrow or next week. We are DEAD LAST IN DEFENSE. There has been zero improvement.

Re: Just Ranting
 

Yes they should. I am expecting them to beat the Rams.

Re: Just Ranting
 

It's been two games. You can't tell anything in two games. I have heard several times this week that analysts are seeing definite improvement in the Saints' defense. Last year's version would have given up 50+ against both those teams.
