Saints head into week 10 as the only team to not score on their opening possession (1 Viewer)

Crazy.

If you were to dig deeper I’m sure we also have the best record of any team who hasn’t scored on their opening possession through 10 weeks.

Shh. We have em right where we want em. They'll never see it coming.

And the worst record.

And the worst record.

 

[BiloxiSaint1]

Perfect! This gives Sean something additional to point out to the offense as an area of weakness! Lol

ATL's defense will cure what ails us.

So I'm guessing we didn't possess the ball at all during that punt return in Seattle

I’m sure the stat is provided as s tool to analyze offenses. So for those purposes no we did not.

Ain’t skerd of this stat as some are. It has obviously not slowed our roll and it will make good motivational material.

Sounds like the law of averages is about to be heavily in our favor in the second half of the season.

Not skerd at all! What it does is make the defense set the stage anyways lol

My only concern is that those initial scripted plays aren't proving to be effective.

You could tell that Sean was ticked during this question on the Monday conference call and takes this very personally.

Wouldn't be surprised if he spent the whole Bye week scheming up the perfect mix of scripted plays to put this stat to rest after Week 10.

Still averaging almost 25 pts a game with Drew Brees missing 5.75/8 games.
