Saints always lose to lesser teams. We were better than the 49ers back in 2011, we were better than the Vikings in both losses, better than the Rams when the refs cheated us and way better than the Bucs. We pretty much gifted these teams games. It makes you wonder WHYYYYY? And for me it starts with the head coach. What is it about the head coach that leads to so many turnovers and playing down to the competition. Payton should have known in the beginning of the game that the Bucs were going to go for it on 4th down EVERY TIME!
It's not playing down to the competition it's everything the head coach and team doesn't do each year. Saints may be better than all of those teams head to head or some point during the season but never when it matters most and when it counts. Payton doesn't show up as a play caller and your team turns the ball over gifting and giving any team points is a sure way to lose any game.
