what is wrong with saints

[ducks]

their coach before was an o coach with giants
kicked but one year team adjusted and then they sucked

is their coaching the problem?

[kskonn]

I think coaching and that I don't really think they got any better this off season while others did. That first year when you have an element of surprise and a very advantageous schedule usually are followed by a crappy season..

Reggie Bush still can't average more than 3 yards per carry. The WR corp is very thin. The offense has gone stale, and they don't go deep with the ball anymore. The defense was not very good last year, and seems to be worse this year. God has already forgotten about Katrina.

[TheSanityAnnex]

Drew Brees.

[Greg Oden]

Chargers could've used him last night.

[TheSanityAnnex]

Chargers could've used him last night.Brees has never put together back to back good seasons. I don't expect him to do any different this year.

[johngateswhiteley]

they'll turn it around.

[Whisky Dog]

Saints need to run the ball with Deuce on offense and shore up their coverages on defense. They've already given up 5 completions of 40 yards or more in 2 games. Last season they led the NFL in that category with 16 over the season. They are on pace to shatter that.

Reggie Bush needs to stop bouncing everything outside. He's getting too many carries from the backfield and he just tries to bounce everything. NFL players are far too fast to get away with that shit, especially now that they know he's going to do it. I think the coaching is fine, but the execution by the players has been horrible.

3500+ yards, 24 TDs/15 INTs and a rating of 89.2 is a bad year?

[OdenCouchDynasty]

Saints suck.

Bingo, if Angels in the Outfield taught us anything, it's that God only helps you one season. And you have to win the Championship on your own (which they couldn't do) God has moved on.

[Brutalis]

Easy, they don't understand the go marching in part.

[exstatic]

Cinderella...carriage...pumpkin. I expect many empty seats and bags on heads within a year. You can't maintain a team on emotion in the long run, either on the field, or as a fan or sponsor.

In the long run, the Saints won't be in N.O. I think it will be 15-20 years before N.O. approaches the population base and business environment of the pre-Katrina days. I was reading an article that the state is going to buy back 19000 destroyed homes. If you figure an average of 3 peeps per casa, that's close to 60,000 people, or 10 percent of the pre-Katrina population, that are throwing in the towel.

Benson was (and still is) getting a huge subsidy from the state to stay, and that runs out in 2010. Couple that with the fact that the stadium is like 40 years old, no one can afford to replace it, and you have an exit cue.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

This team looks horrible.

Again.

[Thunder Dan]

bad night to take the over...this is pathetic

[ducks]

bush 6 carries 14 yards way to go bush

[Fillmoe]

im glad we didnt get the #1 pick that year.... GORE >>>>>>>>>>> BUSH

[Thunder Dan]

nothing like missing the over by a half point because a professional kicker can't hit a 18 yard field goal

[J.T.]

Drew Brees 4 picks 0 TDs.... SUPER BOOOOOOOWWWWWWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!

[samikeyp]

I don't know but Brees almost fucked my fantasy team tonight.

[tlongII]

There are exactly two good football teams in the NFC this year.

[J.T.]

I don't know but Brees almost fucked my fantasy team tonight.

I'm enjoying having Manning on my team by virtue of a trade that "only happened because I have Brees too."

Nice. :tu

[Pistons < Spurs]

Sounds like Duece may be out for the year w/ a torn ACL.

It's as if the NFC clouds have opened up and the Cowboys can just follow the light to SUPERRRRRRRRRRRR BOWWWWWWWWWWWWLLL.

Where Indy or NE wait to crush your dreams.

[Dirk Nowitzki]

If the Cowboys can manage to get all their guys on D back and if they start to gel, they have as good of a chance as the Pats or Colts do. I am starting to see slow improvements in the D but it comes down to health and execution. Talent and potiential wise this team is capable of beating anybody. It is a long season though so we will have to wait and see how things go on that.

[Walter Craparita]

No doubt.

Patriots 72
Cowboys 27

LT doesn't know what's wrong with the Saints either....

where are his trademark tears? and unnecessary shots at the opposing head coach to deflect attention from how shitty his team is?

[stretch]

I've been saying it since before he even came out of college... Reggie Bush is way overhyped, and will never be a true starting RB in the NFL. He is a pussy, avoids contact, and relies too much on his speed. Losing Deuce McCallister is going to be the worst thing that could have happened to him. He will be able to find ways to contribute in the NFL, but he will never be what all these dumb idiots hyped him up to be. I like the guy, and hope that he does well, but I have a bad feeling he is going to go down as a major bust. The stuff he could do in college, worked in college... not the NFL, where everyone is bigger, faster, smarter, and stronger.

There is no way Bush can carry that backfield. Im so glad we didnt draft that bitch!!

Looks like Houston is going to have a hell of a line here soon, with Williams and Okoye growing together.

Would you rather have had Williams, or VY?

[BacktoBasics]

So I guess this means the Cowboys will almost win it this year and suck balls next year.

:wtf :wtf While their star wideout isnt a spring chicken, he does have a few more productive seasons left in him. They can use the draft to keep getting younger as well. Most of this team is young which means they will be good for years to come.

They're probably getting a top 3 pick, since Cleveland sucks balls THIS year.

Sean Payton: "It's Hurricane Katrina's fault." :p:

[word]

Drew Brees has always blown hot and cold since his days at Purdue.

[StylisticS]

This shouldn't come to a surprise. In this salary cap era, 2nd year coaches always have a hard time. I think their offense is just really bad right now. THe defense isn't performing as well. But the offense cannot run or pass effectively at all.
