GAMEDAY THREAD -- Saints @ Falcons 9/29/24 (7 Viewers)

Juan Johnson has been really disappointing this year. Not sure if its' just that he has been kept in to block, but standing out of bound on a pass play is just a mistake you can't make.

He’s got the physical tools to be a good/great receiving TE but he just doesn’t perform up to that and then shoot’s himself in the foot with those kind of plays.

Where's the pass rush? Granderson? Young?

Even when they blitz, the blitzer doesn't even clear the LOS!

smh

Are they scared that Cousins is going to take off and run???? lol

Let him, then blow him up.

Not sure why Juwan Johnson, wide open, would run that close to the boundary.

Because regardless of what some folks here think, he’s terrible.

Starting to think we my have overestimated the Saints after those first two games.

1. We beat a horrible Panthers team with maybe the worst QB in the league. The second game with Dalton at QB will not be as easy.
2. We beat a clearly mid Dallas team who has two wins against the bottom dregs of the league. They almost lost to the Giants.
3. We lost to an Eagles team that is a fraud, there getting trounced by TB 24-0 and look like hot garbage. Both the Bucs and Falcons could run all over them but we can't.
4. Give the Falcons 14 free points on just two dumb plays. Which in my opinion is just more reflection on the coaching staff. We may win this game but my it should be a blowout but once again the off and now s. teams are letting teams stay in the game and wasting a good defense.

I want to belive in this team, but they make it so hard. Just don't have faith in Allen and Carr.

Carr had someone (Olave?) open to his right for an easy first. We need to take advantage of the gimmes.

Kamara also looked open underneath for the first.

I said it earlier in the thread. Taysom Hill is the best player on offense. We can afford to lose other players, but the offense stalls when Taysom is not on the field.

 

[meily]

Falcons scored 3pts offensively, but the Saints spotted them 14pts.

 

[sammymvpknight]

Given up two defensive TDs but man Carr looks like Carr again

Carr with a clean pocket is amazing but if he has just a hint of pressure he gets the pitter patter throwing off the back foot crap going.

 

[Centmssaint1]

He’s got the physical tools to be a good/great receiving TE but he just doesn’t perform up to that and then shoot’s himself in the foot with those kind of plays.

Well, use him to block. Moreau is worst.

First two weeks were more illusion than truth. Funny thing is for all that I still have more faith in the offense than defense. When it gets to crunch time this defense will do more breaking than bending.

Defensive coordinators got 2 games of film on Kubiak and totally has him figured out.

 

[Quiet Storm]

I swear we have some fairweather fans on here.."well, I knew that 2-0 start wasn't something to would continue"..that's BS!

I mean injuries happen they play their parts and it's not like we haven't moved the ball and scored today. Our mistakes is what has Atlanta 2 TDs..

 

[Saintslfc13]

Kamara also looked open underneath for the first.

I saw that too but I didn’t like it for the same reason I didn’t like the pass he ended up throwing to Shaheed, interior pressure.

 

[Dallas_Saint73]

Steve Young with 0 TDs, an interception, and 3 points

Lol fair point. Just hate that he’s able to sit back there and make throws. Not the best but more opportunity.

 

[Boy_of_wonder75]

That's the best insult you can come up with?

Trying to keep it to ones you would understand.

The pass rush was cooked the moment posters started talking about them feasting on Storm Norton and the back up center lol. It’s a tale as old as time.

Maybe they turn it up in the second half. Our secondary is elite else we’d be way worse off.
