Observations from Saints' win over Seahawks

Meanwhile in Indy the Colts beat the Clowns and the Saints beat the Hags a win is a win is a win! IF and BUT don't change IS 33 - 27!

Anyone other than Russell at QB today and we get 3+ sacks.

I think Bridgewater made some big strides today. He stopped trying to do too much and just started getting the ball to his playmakers. This was in a very hostile environment too... Brees has had some stinkers in Seattle.

Great, couldn't be happier with today's results after dreading this all week.

To answer your point on the 12th man; they're out bandwagonning the Chiefs and Rams now. Texas A&M called and wants their slogan back.

Latt is allowing too many receptions.

Positives:

I'm positive we've got to have better play from the QB position; Bridgewater had opportunities and just can't get it done...

Ramczyk and McCoy each had penalties, but they also made some impressive adjustments in-game today without Drew's leadership...

It's killing me we just extended Michael Thomas, who played tough, bravely today and we can't get the ball downfield to him...

Jared Cook was a waste of money and I wouldn't be surprised to sign a FA or see Dan Arnold promoted if he can make the weight...

Eli Apple atoned in a big way with his strip-fumble today; the front four, including the rotation was huge today, huge...

If the Kicking game handles the snap exchanges, doesn't muff a punt - they're Special Team Unit of the Week in the NFL...

I'll say it and I was wrong for years - Sean Payton ain't sh*t without Drew Brees - Brees has been worth every penny we've ever paid him...

He almost blew out Seattle at home by 22 without Brees. Where's the logic? Can't remember last time Saints won in Seattle

You really think that Seattle team will make the playoffs as they are now?

What's stopping them?, Look I'm not saying they're "world beateers" or the most "eminent" team in the league or their division, but they are a competitive team. If we didn't play a full game yesterday we lose that game. Think about it we HAD to play a full game to win. That has to speak to something right? They're not the Legion of Boom but they aren't push overs either. IMHO
