Damn... If the team played as defensive as some fans, it would have been a shut out. I complimented you guys lol.

Preseason is an evaluation period not a competitive period, it is solely to decide what 37 players will not have a roster spot on September 1st. No one is playing full speed except for players trying to not be part of the 37. You can get a good bit of evaluation on those players but nothing team oriented or from the starters. Not to mention our defense takes 3 regular season games to get on step every year.

Only a fool would put what they plan to do in the regular season on display in the preseason...

'I am scared to say what I saw'... Am I going to need witness protection or something?

If you haven't put money down, then you are blowing smoke up your own ass about what you think you know. Seriously, I have seen predictions on the outcome of the first quarter of the season.

Very fair brother. I saw your other post about intelligence, dont sell your self short. If you ever put on a Falcons jersey we can revisit lol.

We are Saints fans. By that, and knowing the torture we willingly submit to it would be reasonable to question all of our intelligence...
