GAMEDAY THREAD -- Saints @ Falcons 9/29/24 (85 Viewers)

[SystemShock]

Close games with the lead. The defense is supposed to carry the offense. That's the reason Allen is here.

And you want them to do better than 12 points on 4 field goals, 3 of them from 50+ yards?

You're expecting the 2000 Ravens.

Time to start a fire Dennis Allen thread

Why? Defense gave up 0 TDs unlike saints last week another teams scored on a special teams blunder and a defensive play.

 

[GTSaint]

Should’ve just kneeled in the endzone honeslty.

No doubt. Take the touchback. Throw it deep. Refs seemed to be enjoying calling pi. Maybe they forget who has the ball and call one in our direction.

 

[St. Aaron]

Score to take a lead, defense gives up huge play, kicker makes clutch FG if the other offense didn’t outright score, lose. Repeat. I’m so sick of this movie.

It wasn't ticky tack Adebo panics and grabs and interfere

It actually was a bang bang play. He went around the back of the receiver just as the ball got there.

 

[SigFreudianSlip]

This had nothing to do with the defense. They didn’t allow an offensive touchdown. This is squarely on Allen and kubiak and Sheehan.

Both of those things are true.

In spite of how terrible the O was they still gave the defense the lead late…and as ALWAYS the defense folds. Simply a fact.

 

[Snakehead]

I think Adebo PI was bang bang..if we were the Chiefs that doesn't get called.

It was about as bang bang as the NOLA No-call.

 

[SaintKenn]

Terrible playcalling and then deciding NOT to kick the FG is what did us in

 

[VPCajun]

I’ll never trust our Defense to hold a lead at the end of a close game. They always always give it up.

The Defense "does it in memory of Drew"!

sad

 

[Pkessling]

12 points, bro. 12 points. 3 FGs of 50+ yards. What else do you want them to do?

I want them to preserve a lead with less then 2 mins left in a game.

 

[Innominate]

Why didn't we take the ball on the 30. At least we have 1 play. Maybe we get a PI and have a chance to kick a FG

 

[Saintslfc13]

I think Adebo PI was bang bang..if we were the Chiefs that doesn't get called.

1000% doesn’t get called, he’s just playing d until the ball hits the receiver and then he throws the guy down which is supposed to be fair game.

 

[Saint Greg]

They held them to a 58 yard FG attempt with a bullshirt PI call thrown in. That's not bad defense.

It was a legit PI

 

[St. Aaron]

Shouldn’t have been a close game. They did their job and held them to 9 points before that last drive.

It’s not the rest of the game I’m worried about. They’ll do their job until they don’t at the end.
