Yes you must snap out of it and now

But it feels like someone picking on the "mentally challenged" kid in school.

Oh well, better them than us.

I agree "a lot' when they are winning and it's fashionable to go to the games and tomohawk..otherwise it's "GO Dawgs" all day long. YUK!!

There was one shot of the fans during the game where I think I saw more red shirts with a G on them than falcons jerseys

Thought he missed in either Cleveland or Atlanta too. I know Colston's fumble gave the Falcons a chance to win in OT. But I thought Graham missed a FG in one of those games.

He didn't

Well, the Saints have a chance now. They better take advantage. Two weeks to prepare for a wounded Lions team. If they lose that game, Ryan should be fired. He would have had two weeks to prepare a gameplan and get guys healthy and rested. Plus Payton needs to start relying more on a balanced offensive gameplan.

Lions O has been very pedestrian. We better keep that trend going.

I'm most worried about turnovers.

Well.. Ryan had an entire offseason and preseason to prepare for Atlanta in the opener and we didn't seem at all prepared.

Just sayin'...

I hope we shake our road woes next Sunday.

What would lead you to believe that this is a possibility?

I give him a mulligan in that game. Saints/Falcons and Saints/Panthers are always a dogfight. Plus, who knew then that PRob and CWhite would turn into Jason David, and Bailey and Butler would never see the field. I think Ryan built his defense around PRob and Butler.

Running KRob in OT against the Bucs and Brees INTs, especially during 2-minute drills. But...Payton is Payton. Live by the pass, die by the pass.

Clowns maybe garbage but fact is they are still in it too. We better come out of the bye with new religion. We've got a long up hill battle to salvage this season.

True. But 7 of the 12 remaining games are at home. Saints better take advantage. 3 out of the 5 road games are definitely winnable, the way the Steelers, Lions, and Bucs are playing. At this point, I will settle for a 10-6 season, win the division, and get a home wild card. Take our chances from there. Anything can happen in the playoffs.

thought I'd be safe to hang out in a gameday
thread when we didn't play. Nope!
