A win whether great or ugly is #1. The Saints have had some poor games against rookie or unproven QBs. Bucs were wiped up by the Titans. Upset here will have the faithful considering next year's draft picks.

I'd like to see an attention grabbing game by any playmaker on offense. We need to see performance, not just threats.

Sacks. Pressure, pressure, yada, yada, I want to see the job completed. Much more non-sacks and I'll be calling for GW wildass blitzing. Gotta show something.

I thought the rookie DBs showed some potential vs. AZ. Evans and Jackson will be a good test vs. big bodies. Same type game subtracting the penalties would be progress.

Kenny Phillips- they obviously wanted to go younger out of camp. I'd be happy if his veteran savvy could get a half a Sharper '09 performance. Hoping

Kick & Punt returns- I've been down STC McMahon for a few years now. Murphy shows he has the tools. It seems like an eternity since the last punt return for a TD in game 1 of the 2011 season. The coverage teams haven't impressed in a while either.

Payton playcalling mojo- Yeah, we've been watching his playcalling for a long time- so ya do get familiar. Still, I feel TOO familiar. As in not being surprised enough like the Payton of old. Not just talking the punt decision last week.

Whatcha got?

If we don't win by two or more TDs it's going to be a long, long year. Tampa is 2-14 kind of bad.

I'm looking for more snaps from Snead, Hill, Richardson, and Edebali.

Also, more passes to receivers and TE's.

Looking for Cooks to step it up a notch. As great as he is he seems to really get flustered when jammed at the line. I think he can improve this as his career progresses but he's really gotta blow up soon for our offense to be as good as we have come to expect.

There was a big lack in intermediate passes. Would like to see some crossing routes and pipes around 12 yards deep that we used with Stills in the past. Also, would like to see much improved running game. Our ypc was pathetic.

I'd like to see this team put away what is suppose to be an inferior opponent.

The team has a tendency to slack up against teams they should beat easily and either win close games or find a way to lose.

yeah, important game to not play down to the opponent. Need to establish identity.

I'm looking for a "jump" from Coleman meaning be consistent. Looking for the DL to get sacks and FINISH pressures and Murphy to get a chance to bring one out.

That we can pass the ball more than 5 years down the field.

That we have a pass play other than a screen in our playbook.

That Brandon Coleman can catch a football.

That we can generate a pass rush.

Besides the all important win? A lot!

A pass rush. A secondary that can hold on to a interception. Browner shaking off the rust.

A solid run game. Get Cooks targeted often. Separation by the wide outs. Colston playing like a vet. A couple of long completions. Unpredictable play calling. Red zone scoring as in touchdowns

I'd love to see Murphy break one in the return game but that means we will also need the Defense to get stops inside the Tampa 30... so yeah, that too.

I am looking for Coleman to become our "Red Zone" threat. IMO this needs to happen for our offense to start clicking on all cylinders. He obviously has the size and strength but he needs to improve his routes and securing the ball.

I really think we need to IR Colston and go with Snead as a bigger part of the offense.
