We are done time to tank.

If I had to put a finger on it, I'd say there was snap count confusion a couple of times. Robert Quinn is a hell of a pass rusher though. He's made a lot of tackles look bad. Easy to see why the Saints had interest in him this off season.

TA is an elite LT. He'll play much better next Sunday.

This is the main thing I have been saying for weeks - clean up the penalties, and the offense will improve.

TB did well in spite of all the penalties but it sure is fun watching a good hard hitting D. We are going to steamroll people when Brees gets back.
We could steamroll people now if they cut out all those dumb penalties.
Very exciting win.

I like this personality, hopefully it can maintain dominance in your multiple personality environment or we can get that "ironic" font, either way.

Cowboys D is vicious. No QB is going to have success against that front. I don't even think Brees would have done much better. No time and outside of MT and Kamara forget it. Cook is pathetic. Can't get open, can't catch with coverage and poor situational awareness. Time to bench or trade him.

I still think Cook is going to get it together, but I agree on the rest 100%.

He won't. He is sloppy and has been his whole career. He is old and will not improve. One good season due to a tanking team. Fools gold.

Willing to bet we sign a TE by week 5. What we have is not gonna cut it.

Rooting for this team without Drew is mentally very similar to the Dome Patrol era -- just get a few first downs and kick a few field goals, and the defense will handle the rest.

Quinn did that to Armstead when he was with the Rams too.

Love watching Vonn Bell's progression, hes become our most consistent safety.

His coverage looks better, hes forcing turnovers and making solid tackles.
