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.

When we started this latest gauntlet, Ravens, Vikings, Rams, I was hoping hard to get 2 out of 3. 2/3 was my measure for success. I wouldn't have bet a single dollar on a sweep of those 3 teams, which is not a slight on our team but a recognition that the other guys are good too sometimes.

So, to sweep those 3, particularly in the fashion we did it...just wow.

Great Point, and I'm not sure the talking heads will let the Saints fly-under-the-radar now, they'll be doubters, but the Saints won't be ignored...

HOW THE SAINTS WON THE GAME

Score 35-35 and the Saint finally got the ball back the crowd started yelling

"Who Dat say they gonna beat them Saints?"
"Who Dat say they gonna beat them Saints?"
"Who Dat say they gonna beat them Saints?"
"Who Dat say they gonna beat them Saints?"
"Who Dat say they gonna beat them Saints?"
"Who Dat say they gonna beat them Saints?"

That was when both the offense and the defense took over the game again.
It was around 11:00 minutes left in the 4th quarter when a fire was lit under their asses.

Saints Free Agent off season linebacker signing ...

Demario Davis. He's been as good as advertised.

Money well spent there.

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

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.

At least Peters admits he was beaten.

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