Mr. Marcus, who's played great this season, letting some deep drops get by as Allen keyed off of Mr. Marcus all day... |

Re: Observations from the Saints win over the Panthers
Not sure what game you were watching, he tees off on PJ Williams who had about 200 yds and 2TDs hung on him today.

And if you hear Romo's analysis, he tells you exactly what happened... |

It was like we were trying to play a game of whack a mole today. If Lattimore is there, they can't do what they did to us today. They would still have decent games, because McCaffrey is a beast.. but we could play the sticks a lot better. ![]()
I'm not sure when Lattimore is supposed to be back, but Atlanta is going to be a really tough game if he's not playing. A lot of casual fans get too caught up in seeing scores and trying to correlate things. (Team X beat Team Y by 30 points, and Team Z only beat Team Y by a FG.. therefore Team X is better). Football doesn't work like this. Football is matchups, and with Lattimore out we are losing matchups we normally win. |

Re: Observations from the Saints win over the Panthers
Ginn needs to see the bench or the unemployment line.
It's difficult to watch him hurt our team near enough every week. |

Re: Observations from the Saints win over the Panthers
PJ Williams is ABSOLUTE GARBAGE in coverage...GAAAAAAAARRRRRRBAGE!
That stated, he's damn good in the box and hits well at the line of scrimmage. I'm thinking that CJ G-J is not showing well in practice or at the whiteboard for the coaches. But when the lights turn on he's better than PJ! And I doubt he'd let a WR just run right by knowing the Safety is on the other side of the field and not on his side covering deep. That Ref and his crew...WORSE than PJ in coverage. Didn't think that was possible, for anything in the NFL to be as bad as PJ in coverage, but that guy proved me wrong. The 4th and 1 conversion and that BS holding call where the DE falls over from diving to far and getting off balance and the LT touches him afterwards on top of his shoulder was ridiculous. |

But many were content that this team does not need a #2, 3 or hell #4 WR. There is Michael Thomas & a bunch of bodies running around at WR. Cook has shown up though at the TE position. |
