As a 39 year Saints fan, the way I see it is that ONLY the first 4 wins were "must win" games. Now, at 5 wins, the Saints have exceeded last years record and show great improvement. I don't like playing this " the next game is a must win" and "looking at the rest of the schedule..." game. If you want to play that game, I suggest you try out the Eagles message board.
IMO, it is NOT FAIR to raise your expectations after the Saints are 5-2. Write expectations (goals) down at the BEGINNING of the year and take it out after each game and review it. I'm so sure we all had the Saints as division winners and playoff contenders pre-season... give me a break.
All I want is good, solid football from the Saints. No excessive stupid penalties and minimal turnovers. That was my expectation at the beginning of the season. That's all I want to see right now and I didn't see it yesterday. As to the "must wins" and the rest of the schedule, just give me solid football and I'll be happy... the rest of the wins that come from that will be lagniappe.
The next three games - "must win"? Not in my opinion.
