Deacon Benjamin Watson still got it.

HUGE catches yesterday.

Side note - DOME crowd. Very smart in being quiet to allow Brees to call signals & then turn it on when Goff was under center.

DOME SWEET DOME :p.

DOME SWEET DOME :p.

The announcers made such a big deal about how quiet the crowd was when we had the ball, and I'm thinking, "well, duh", but I guess our fans are pretty football savvy relative to lots of others. We kinda rock.

:banana:

Is he caustic in the locker room? Not that anyone has mentioned.
Is the cell phone penalty any different than Grahams dunk penalties? Nope
If Joe Horn had Twitter when he was a player would Thomas be any different? No
Does he whine or throw tantrums like Bryant? No
Is he trying to be bigger than the team? Not that I know of.

Most importantly, has any of the above eroded his performance? Not that I know of.

He has a chip on his shoulder and that makes a lot of people play harder.:bng:

I was thinking along the same lines as Dizzle but you made some good points. He's definitely not a cancer in the locker room.

Speaking of cancers, I didn't like Brandin Cooks when he was a Saint, and I like him even less now. The guy has Mighty Mouse syndrome. Not as good as he thinks he is.

Apparently KC knew exactly what they were doing when they traded him.

Seems like @cantguardmike is having that effect on quite a few CBs this year. First he turned Josh Norman into a snowflake. Now he turns Marcus Peters into toast. The guy is a wizard.

Maybe that's why he changed agents; so he could upgrade/afford new phone.

Exactly. He's a big part of that run game.

And our FB Line...dude just cracks craniums. Shoot, our WRs are pretty good at blocking down field. All 'they' wanna talk about is our pass game (which is elite), but our blocking is just another level.

Davis is definitely the best Linebacker in a long time.

I think he is making the entire LB corps better. The stuff that Klein had on Gurley at the goal line was a result of Davis' call.

-Saints won.
-OL beasted.
-Brees was just so money.
-Kamara is as good as he wants to be.
-Can't guard Mike.
-Old man Watson still balling.
-TE Hill with his effort's and blocking.
-Football player Hill with his efforts.
-Getting the first or second seed is BIG.

-Playing in the secondary with the rules is brutal.
-43 still could use a tackling lesson. Head up. See target. You're allowed to use your arms and hands.
-Anzalone made some plays. GREAT to see.
-Defense isn't going to stop anyone. They just have to make a few key plays.
-Apple is close to last years Crawley.
-92 needs to get healthy.

-I would give the guys an extra day or afternoon off. Don't want them to hit the wall.
