2012 New Orleans Saints Discussion Thread

This is horrible 0-4. At least any bandwagon fans that are with us..will jump off now and the true fans will stick this out.

 

You guys all still have those paper bags?

 

Bags aren't coming back. :]

 

not coming back. still going to ride with the Saints. hashtag number one over all pick.

It was GREAT to see this game happen. To see Colston finally show who he is again. And yeah, the penalty for roughing the passer on the pick six was a big break, but still. A win..in the books. The Saints finally looked like they put it all together, and they looked like themselves. Even the defense made some stops, including the icing on the game with the strip. Maybe it means big things going forward. Maybe it was just a 'special night'. But, nonetheless, its a good night to see this happen.

What I liked, besides the Win and the record..was that Devery Henderson showed ability to catch and hold onto the ball, not just as a deep threat. Kinda took some of the routes Moore usually takes. And Camarillo fit in nicely, despite a couple of drops. It was a good team effort, not just a couple of people making plays, though the three tds by Colston was certainly huge.

HEre's to hoping momentum can be built going forth. Play the Bucs coming off the bye?

 

very good game. exciting from start to finish. they got back to moving the ball in short increments and not trying for the long ball all the time.

 

The amount of 3rd downs converted the last two weeks compared to the first 3 games has to be much improved.

devery is not thespian. Just catch the ball dev and you will be alright. Let your play do your talking for you.

 

I'd like to see Devery play like he did Sunday night. Getting the catches that Moore would have gotten had he not been hurt. I don't want them to be taken away from Moore, but let Devery be a threat in medium-range passes too? That could open up more for him down field, especially on stop-n-go patterns and such.

Also, I know we're 1-4..but the NFC overall isn't loaded with teams with big records. So we're not out of playoff contention as long as we can build going forward and get some wins. That win has to build confidence, and hopefully does. The bye week to get healthy, maybe get a plan together and Joe Vitt will be back for the Broncos game. If we can win 4 out of the next 5? I think we'll be good..

 

In actuality it could happen. Bring down the turd birds back to earth and get past the Giants and Eagles and it could happen.
