Regardless, no pass should be thrown to Hill unless he's wide open. Drew's always had a playmaking TE he could count on making a play and taking one away from the defense until now. I think it may be our #1 priority in the draft but that's for a different day. That ball should not be going to Hill in that situation.

9 first downs from penalties is what cost us the game. That's gotta be some kinda record.

Penalties NO 11-87 ATL 4-35

However the penalties were mostly against our D, and yet they only allowed 20 points.

We got 0 points from 3 turnovers, offense screwed us.

We scored 7 points off 3 turnovers.
And the refs took 3 points off the board from the first turnover.
I know you're hell bent on blaming Brees and the offense. Get your facts straight first.

No need to get chippy with me, fact is - Offense lost this game. Brees and Payton specifically.

Definitely offense screwed us. Sean only came with his Kamara playbook today... Forgot we have a Michael thomas and Mark Ingram.

No one's getting chippy.
You keep saying we scored 0 points off of 3 turnvers and that's simply not true.

Luckily we have the jets at home in 10 Days. AK will be backed it’s the jets. 10-4 with the falcons coming to the dome. Then we have the bucs. We win out or at the least 2-1. That’s 11 wins and a div championship
