time running out - defense has been playing crappy - about to score
The days when the Saints defense is stinking it up perhaps there ought to be a change in the offensive stragedy.
(like sunday - 6 seconds for Jimmy G to throw, secondary suckage and linebackers out) the offense pulls a rabbit out of their hat and are set to walk in and score with a minute or less on the clock perhaps the player - Tre'Quan in this case should lay down at the 3 inch line let them run off a few plays then have Murray or someone similar - score on 3rd down miss - try 4th better than losing in 53 seconds when your defense decides to take the day off even Cam Jordan was completely neutralized |

Re: time running out - defense has been playing crappy - about to score
If a FG would win it, then I'm in agreement. But in this case we needed a TD, dont forget the 9ers had already stopped two 2 point conversion attempts from the 1 yard line.
We cant be scared to score just because our defense sucks, Dennis Allen has to grow some balls and figure out why, during his entire tenure, we have been unable to maintain a lead in the final minutes with his Defense on the field. |

Re: time running out - defense has been playing crappy - about to score
Nah. Even coach Payton said, Treyquan made a tremendous play to GET to the goal line, that spin move, and then the leap....you can't NOT take the score when it's wide open and there for the taking.
This was purely on the defense, and I am a huge fan of our defense. |

Frisco has a good team, got down to who blinked first.

On the bright side, better we have a poor defensive showing now on the back end vs the Playoffs where there is no tomorrow. |

Re: time running out - defense has been playing crappy - about to score
We needed seven points not three points. If he didn't take it in and we failed to score then the Who Dat nation and his coach would be all over him for losing the game. It looks like a lose/lose scenario. It's on DA not Smith. Smith did his job. DA didn't!
