Wow, this is the quietest I've seen this forum after a win

Geez, it seems like you guys are disappointed we didn't lose.

near as I can tell, 'haps many in the Who Dat Nation are cautiously optimistic as we must consider quality of opponent. I understand that a win is a win is a win but could the quality of opponent not also be playing a factor in the rather subdued response

to this W?

I enjoyed the game of course but I think I would put myself squarely in that camp!

Who Dat!!!

Think you beat a not very good team and maybe the score being that close was less than reassuring.

Regardless of the opponent, 3quan Smith is making plays for this team ... again.

Serve me up with a plate of crow because now I see a guy getting open, making tough catches in traffic and winning a high percentage of his one on one match ups.

Congrats to Smith on the WIN & another solid performance.

Keep grinding.

I was really happy to see Tre Quan making meaningful plays. Also looks like Sanders ~ Brees are getting in rhythm. I'm a little disappointed we're not getting 11 more involved.

It was nice to see Drew finally trusting his receivers to make plays down field. I don't know what I would have done if we saw another game of checkdown after checkdown.

Really happy to see Tre contributing consistently throughout the game.

Good to see Cam get that sack of his back. Plenty more to come. He is not a player on the decline.

Murray doesn't get enough credit.

Patrick Queen should have been a Saint.

There were many notables:

- Murray with 4.6 YPC and 2 TDs
- Smith being a factor in the offense.
- Sanders and Brees finding a groove
- Kamara with 119 total yards
- Season low of 4 penalties
- No Offensive penalties
- Harris now has 4 returns in excess of 40 yards

It wasn't a close game until the lead got large enough for our defense to change the way they were playing.

I missed the game entirely...but I did get engaged...so there's that.

I'll be back next week to offer my semi-educated opinion(s)...
