Saints vs Buccaneers Post-Game Observations

I think having a camp comprised of glorified walkthroughs and no preseason is going to have more of an effect on teams than people want to admit. Usually by game 3-4 you know your teams identity. This year It’s going to take 5-6 games before we see a lot of these teams start to click. We are a bit ahead of the league because of our roster but what we saw today wasn’t anything close to what we will be like once things start clicking.
We played hard but Tampa did shoot themselves in the foot with penalties and poor execution.
It was a fun, low stress game and that’s just what I needed.
Hope Thomas is ok. Payton has a bad habit of leaving our star players on the field when the game is well in hand. Thomas shouldn’t have been in there on the second to last play of the game.
