Observations from the Saints' 33-18 win against the Giants

Our D will get its test vs Baltimore. Holy no moly. Physical o-line with a good deep passing game. We will see where this D is by then.

The D is coming along. I can't clown them if they ain't acting like clowns.

The one position that is hurting us more in the passing game is the inconsistency at TE. We have to address this in the off-season...

With Ingram coming back it will not be as bad due to the fact that both are better in the run blocking department than being a true threat in the passing game. Two weeks that Watson should have had a TD...

I’m glad we were able to put something together offensively that didn’t rely on us wearing M Thomas out. Going forward I think we will see more of CM and TS in the 3 WR sets with M Thomas.

I thought Taysom Hill adds a element that most of the NFL defenses aren't ready to handle. That's saying a lot because the Giants have a solid defense.

Some of those play calls (see fake punt) and packages set up for TH were nice. This guy is a damn good athlete.

Reminds me of Kordell Stewart aka SLASH from back in the day.

Notice how the Ravens are trying to use Lamar Jackson in the same capacity, with limited results of course...

Payton and John Harbaugh are ahead of the curve. I think in the future the NFL offenses could a little become more "position-less", like the NBA where the lines between shooting guard and forward are really blurred and lots of players are just "wings" now. And hopefully the end of being tone-deaf to the spread and read-option and some of the stuff that works in the college game. It's an exciting time.

They can win if I'm not drinking. I didn't think it was possible......but apparently they can win if I'm sober.

Taysom Hill ran over Landon Collins, that was fun to watch!

You know what was most impressive to me about the PJ Williams forced fumble? It was on that very same field two years ago where he suffered what Payton called “one of the worst concussions he’d ever seen.” But yesterday, there was PJ confidently making a play. Respect.

This is true. That was ugly.
