Aside from Philly, who went on to beat KC, but that should HARDLY count because nothing cures the ails of losing like the salve of playing the Bucs, Rams, Chiefs, Raiders or Titans.
It seems that teams have a hangover and lose the week after they play us.
Detroit Lions 13 vs Minnesota Vikings 27
Philadelphia Eagles 34 vs 14 Kansas City Chiefs
Buffalo Bills 10 @ Miami Dolphins 38
NY Jets 27 @ Miami Dolphins 31
NY Giants 17 vs 24 Arizona Cardinals
The average margin of victory for the team that plays a team after the Saints is 14. That's two TDs and XPs.
Also, each team that played us was coming off a win or hadn't loss the week prior to facing us.
Lions........ 0-0
Eagles...... 1-0
Bills.......... 1-1 Had just beaten the Bucs.
Jets............3-0
Giants.......5-0
Dolphins...2-3 Had just beaten the Jets and had a bye week.
The Dolphins have a rematch against the Jets coming up, so we will see how that pans out.
If you watch boxing, sometimes after a boxer has had a particularly demoralizing defeat, one wherein he is completely outclassed, he can sometimes take a long time to recover or never recover really. I remember Tito fought Bernard Hopkins and immediately retired after that bloodbath.
It can be extremely frustrating to realize that there is a team THAT much better than you and that you have NO realistic shot at winning a playoff game against a team of that caliber, especially if you have to play that team on the road in the SUPERDOME.
Do you think that once teams face us, they immediately go into a tailspin realizing how thoroughly outclassed by the Saints they are?
