Re: Observations from the Saints' win against the Colts

nice complete game bounceback from last week. i like that we got the colts before the titans. tennessee is gonna be a tougher game so its good to see our guys really notch up their confidence before going on the road.

also, anyone else loving how much jared cook is opening things up on the field? when he's not making big plays he's drawing tons of attention. last nite felt like 2011 in a lot of ways. that "pick your poison" vibe where we just have to go to the open guy and brees is seeing everything in slow motion. this is how we should be wrapping up the regular season. couldn't ask for more.

11. Brees is throwing a beautiful deep ball right now. Looks like there is enough on them to get there. I actually really enjoyed him floating one up there for Cook to run under for the catch.

Re: Observations from the Saints' win against the Colts

Good teams don't lose TWICE in a row.

Saints put on a clinic last night.

Brees was meticulous & surgical. That was some 2011 offensive stuff going on. Congrats on breaking the record. ALL TIME GREAT. You're a LEGEND #9.

And Michael Thomas is a damn monster. The Colts defenders knew it was coming but simply couldn't stop it. When you are as powerful with your hands and can run PRECISE, ELITE routes, you don't need 4.4 speed. Money well spent on CGM & only 26 years old .

Nice win .

"We're on to the Titans". Gotta keep winning.

Re: Observations from the Saints' win against the Colts

1. Brees looked like a man possessed and played like it.

2. Cook opens up this offense significantly.

3. OLine played very well all things considered.

4. DLine played well against a very talented OLine, but we need someone not named Cam to step up in applying pressure.

5. CGJ is much, much better at Safety than at CB.

6. Dome Field Advantage showed up on MNF.

7. Michael Thomas can't beat defenses on verticals, but still does.

DEMARIO DAVIS. Loved what Vilma brought to that D but IMO DD is better. Excellent in coverage, against the run & tackles well in space.

He was good in NY but turned it up a notch in NO.

So he's better than Vilma?

IMO he is. Watching his play over the last year, he has the total package for the position. If he plays for the Cows, he's a household name and ALL PRO.
