Observations from the Saints' win against the Colts

Didn't get to watch but caught the HLs... hearing that we had a few OL folks injured, concerned about that. From the limited plays I saw Brees looked like he was in peak form, really good to see at this point in the season.

One thing I noticed was not much pressure unless we blitzed, missing Davenport and Rankins might be a bigger problem than I thought. Cam needs to turn it up without those guys.

The Colts have a really really good offensive line. Remember when Luck was being punished by defenses. He got beat up so bad he was forced to retire. Indy spent the money and sured up that weakness up front. Luck had a stellar season playing behind his newly built line last year . But the damage was already done.
We have some really good talent on our D front. They just played against a group that is equally talented.
