though we did it a couple years back vs panthers. I see turning this around and winning out though and still have a shot at a bye if the bears can beat the pack
and us, pack and seachickens all finish 12-4.

Buds if drew don’t get it going with our receivers we’re in a world of crap

And what's up with Jared Cook?

I don't like his body language. Everyone is frustrated on offense but Brees comes to you and discuss a play/wrong route and you're pouting?

If you don't want to participate, have a seat.

Who all got injured. How serious did it look for Hendrickson and Ceedy?

Agreed, the Buccs a third time.. Brady losing to Payton and Brees a third time in a season would crush him more than not making the playoffs.

That would cement the Brady vs Brees discussion and the talking heads that love Brady so much would never mention it.

We are so banged up at the WR position. Once they doubled Sanders, it was over.

Re: Saints again start slow, sloppy with comeback falling short; here's what happened in Chiefs loss

This game was pretty simple...

Run the ball and wear down their D. You need to keep Pat on the sidelines, your defense fresh and Brees as limited as possible. You accomplish all of those things by running the ball.

What did we do?
We stop KC in their first possession.

Run AK for 5 yds
Brees with 2 incomplete passes
punt

We stop KC again on a 3 and out

Brees incomplete
AK for 5 yds
Brees picked off

KC goes 30 yds for an easy TD

Drew started 0/6 with a sack and 1 INT

Sean Payton lost this game before it started. Drew was rusty and should have stayed on the bench, but even with him playing we had success running the ball. Run the ball and play good defense, we don't have the QB to win 30+ point games. If Sean doesn't wake up to what this team really is GB will beat us this same way a month from now.

The Saints are 0-42 when running the ball less than 15 times in a game.

Seems like the entire team is getting frustrated at how inept the offense is. Now our defense has to play on a short week after playing 2 weeks worth of snaps because we have a coach and QB that can't get past their own ego.

The offense ...

These slow starts are killing us.

In the post season, we gotta get out of the gates QUICKLY otherwise it's a uphill climb.
