New Orleans #Saints Have A LONG WAY To Go Before Being Legitimately Contenders In Loss To Patriots

The New Orleans Saints have a long way to go before they convince anybody that they’re beating teams that are better than they are. The New Orleans Saints just dropped their fifth game of the season again on a single score deficit. Although it never felt that close for the New Orleans Saints who gave up via some coverage breakdowns and some issues on the defensive side. Uh a lot of points and a lot of touchdowns early on in the game. Again, for the fourth week in a row, the opposition scoring back-to-back touchdowns in their first two opening drives. That’s not going to get you very far as a New Orleans Saints team. But then on offense, again, putting together long drives, but not being able to find the end zone. Those two things are not going to combine for winning football for you. It’s elementary, my dear Watson. Spencer Rler had a strong game. But this New Orleans offense just seems to forget its identity or not really know its identity yet once it crosses the 50 yd line. That has been a big-time stagnation point for New Orleans. We called it red zone at first. Now it’s really starting to just feel like opposing territory.

  8. Look, Aaron Glenn isn't doing well with the Jets either. As for the Saints, it's like Jim Mora once said, you can have the best coaches in the league, if you don't have ballplayer's to coach, you don't have anything.

  9. Dropsies are prevalent in our offense, particularly with Chris Olave. Sure he can catch wide open shots, but folds like a tent when his catches are contested. And he supposedly bulked up in the off-season? Not working…

  10. Defense same problems last week and last year, 1st half they are asleep and make us play from behind. Offense mainly Rattler over the last dozen games or whatever number it's been with Rattler and the receivers a bad week here and there, they all always choke when it counts whether it's bad passes or bad catches. I been saying this is not a rebuild, why is everyone calling it a rebuild? Play Shough to see what we got and if we need to draft a 1st round QB. QB is most important player on the team. We spent years investing 1st round picks on OLine and years of 1st round picks of D-line. We fail at it more than we are successful just draft a damn 1st round QB for once or twice I don't care, just stop wasting years trying to make subpar QBs work. You waste the years of the talent we do invest in over and over again. It makes no sense. I don't care if we trade everyone except the players that can be trusted as starters that are still playing on rookie contracts from this draft, last years draft and UDFAs. I love the Saints, I am always invested and rooting for them every week, that's why it is frustrating. I have never been fare weather, I am logical and experience says what we have been doing doesn't work. Brees and Sean carried the team and covered the mistakes made by the organization all these years, they always gave us a chance. That's long gone, scrap and trade everyone possible, scrap management and scouting. Do something new.

  12. Kellen at the last 30 seconds of the half left all the timeouts on the table and didn't even give us a chance to take a few shots down the field or at least get a FG, since that's 90% of our scoring offense before the half especially since the Patriots were getting the ball to start the 2nd half

  24. How can you say it never felt that close? They lead the game twice and trailed by only 6 points throughout the 4th quarter with multiple opportunities. Olaves' drop killed drive near mid field.

  26. We look like Billy Joe Hobert and Billy Joe Tolliver days. 4 field goals? Come on man. Score some Touch downs, quit dropping passes Olave, Johnson quit dropping passing and fumbling. Where is the Alpha player on this offense. Wheres that dawg in you? And secondary got torched. The end

  30. Kool Aid is horrendous…after letting his team down time after time all that kid hears is 1st down for the other team…over and over and over and over….dude should go hide in a closet….its just painful to watch

  32. Rattler is mr.safety. He will keep his completion percentage high and won't throw many interceptions. He also won't throw many touchdowns.

    He's basically a more athletic version of Carr. And crazy thing is that Carr, who i am not a fan of, actually won games with the same roster spence has. At the rate excuses are made for him, he could lose the rest of this season and most of next season, and it still wouldn't open the eyes to the rest of thr fan base.

    Sometimes one needs to take risks, Rattler is a game manager. He will only ever keep the game close, but never take the risks to actually win for fear of having the finger pointed his direction.

    And if moore continues to play him in a lost season without seeing what you have in shough, then he is about as ignorant as DA and that is saying a lot.
