Ravens fumble on their first possession, Saints recover the ball but squander the opportunity with POOR playcalling...it's all downhill from there.

the Saints defense couldn't stop the 12 to 15 yard pass on 3rd and long.
thats why we lost the game.
learn from it, correct it, and move on.
Come on folks. 5 turnovers with two returned for Td's. No running game. The answer is pretty clear to me. The defense can't be blamed that much.
They came out looking terrified. I was gone and tivoed the game. The first series I said, oh we're done, they look tenative, they haven't looked tenative once this entire season. After Reggie fumbled I fast forwarded to the end I was so sure we got crushed. Then i came back and watched the 3 quarters that CBS showed, they went "to a more competitive game" at that point.
The Saints could have beaten the Ravens but they didn't play Payton ball today. They also assumed they could stop the run instead of doing what they usually do and make their whole defensive game plan all about stopping the run.
Of course dumb turnovers kill you every time and it killed us today.
It was just that awful game that most teams have at some point. The Bears had one the other week, they were just lucky enough that it was against the worst coach in the league "they are who we that they were!" and the defense and special teams saved the game. So this was our awful game and it was against a guy we'll likely never beat, Steve McNair. It's over, Tampa's next. We need to crush them, not win by a great return, we need to crush them. Play Payton ball for 4 quarters, get to 6-2 and seal this division by the 2nd week of December.
