Sleepwalking through this game. Their lack of fire may end up costing us this game. Payton will be pissed.
Brees is looking like Aaron Brooks today. Ok, maybe that's too harsh, but for some reason, he's gun shy about taking a shot down field. He'll bounce around in the pocket for 2-3 seconds, the throw everything underneath. We really miss Pierre and Reggie. Still a long year though and I'd rather be healthy down the stretch.
Not sure why they went with Carney for the onside kick. We had no chance at it. Should've had Morestead try it. Awful day today. Turnovers killed us and we had the ball inside the 10 twice and only scored 3 points. But there's no dominant team in the NFL this year. We'll be in the mix all year, especially when we get our starters back.
Saints are starting to look like a one year wonder. Haven't seen them much this year because of work, but they have not looked too good. Brees looks like he's scared. I heard Jimmy Ott say on the radio that Brees is trying to protect a tweaked knee, which is why he doesn't seem to be throwing with the confidence we normally see.
We look like scrambled shiit. There has been a tremendous lack of a sense of urgency from the entire team. Textbook Superbowl hangover. Sprinkle in some bad luck, a few key injuries and no swagger and all of a sudden we are getting beat by teams with no-name undrafted rookie QB's. We need to get healthy, Sean Payton needs to get these boys ready to play and we need to crank off a few big wins to gain our swagger back. It's going to be a long flight back to New Orleans.
We actually needed to lose this game. Not skate by another week and continue to NOT correct mistakes. This will get Payton going, otherwise nothing will.
Can't put this one on the defense. The Cardinals scored 30pts without an offensive TD. I'm not ready to hit the panic button just yet. ATL will not go undefeated the rest of the year and we will get healthier. I am concerned about Brees though. He has been gun shy all year. Maybe there is more to the knee injury than meets the eye. We should bench him in favor of Chase Daniel. <<<That was a joke.>>>
