Observations from the Saints first loss in 11 games

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; We had an off day. Yeah the refs were bad, but they were bad for both sides. History repeats itself, it appears, with the CowGirls. The positive... 17-2 , WhoDats!...

Late turnover sinks the Saints in a 13-10 loss, as Cowboys snap 10-game win streak

Re: Observations from the Saints first loss in 11 games

Where do we even start discussing this one??

I’m only going to talk about the positive and give big praise to our defensive front seven. The LB corp of Davis-Anzalone-Klein has really turned into something phenomenal.

GG to the Cowboys. Was surprised at how good they covered. Saints are going to need to adjust their offense when we aren't playing defenses like the Eagles, Redskins and Falcons that leave wide open spaces. The good news is that now we know where we are vulnerable on offense and have 10 days to correct it.

My cat is acting guilty and I'm thinking he did something to jinx our Saints but no idea what that would be.

We have to address the TE position...and they were so worried about the edge rushers that the interior is really what failed us.

Agreed about TE. Where was Ben Watson and Josh Hill?

Leighton Vander Esch. If Kamara couldn't shake him, what chance do you think a 38 year old Tight End and a reserve Tight End have???

Besides the tight ends were kept in to help with pass protection against their pass rush because Payton was determined to pass on them...

Kills me when one my draft man-crushes comes back to burn my team...

Save your all’s breath. Go to Saintsreport and read the 09 after game. Might as well since everything, and I mean everything about this game was identical to 09.
