we played widely considered the best in the NFL and came very close, on the road, amidst their SB celebration.

That's the best offense, and likely the best defense we'll play all year. Brees looked masterful. Sproles is a beast and the D can only get better (they will not be challenged like that again).

In all honesty I think the playcalling left A LOT to be desired.

Exactly. 15 games to go. Great effort. Tackling sucks, but will get better. Colston needs to focus more.

We are still a top 3 offense and the defense will come around! Go Saints!

no doubt that the packers are the best team in the nfc, if not the nfl, obviously and you have to admire the way they continue to compete. Payton's teams never quit. Dline is obviously the glaring issue.

Yeah, no.

Other than that, I agree. We'll be ok.

You frickers are still delusional if you think this team is "fine". The rest of the league has improved while this team has not. Period. Talk about how "fine" everyone is come 12-25-11.

our defense needs to improve a lot, but I agree we will be fine.

I'm upset with Colston, it seems he really has some key frick ups at critical times.

Maybe I'm just over reacting, but he needs to step up.

agreed...we just cannot afford play calling like that when we have to rely on offense. shoulda ran a dive on 4th and inches and a sweep on that goal line play.JMO.

I agree we will be fine. the only player i worry about is harper.

We played like shite early had a hole to climb out of vs a very good team and a tough place to win especially considering opening night and super bowl party.

I hope this game doesn't cost us home field but we should be ok.

Has any poster here ever seen Pierre stopped on an up and over the line dive? I can't remember one. He goes over easily on three different times tonight and we win.

yep. GB was in goal line D protecting against the dive play. which is why we shoulda went toss sweep. on the 4th and inches they were not in goal line and not protecting against dive play which we shoulda ran. payton should know better than this. our D put us in such a hole we could not afford many screw ups and we had one two many.
