-SF INT

-SF three and out

-Kamara fumbles, they go 20 yards and score

-SF three and out

-SF starts on their 45 yard line. They score a TD after a very, very lucky personal foul.

-GW field goal after a missed tackle on fourth and two.


Say whatever you want about the first half, and yes it was terrible, but we made the adjustments needed on defense to win.

We will get healthy on defense. There isn’t a damn team in the NFL that wants to play us right now—home or away.

Agreed. Contrary to this board, our D doesn’t suck.

Well it did today I think they will bounce back though. Been playing well all year.

So they gave up scores on half of the second half SF possessions. Yeah, that’s stepping up.

No they don't but they played poorly for the most part today. My biggest concern is Dennis Allen. I believe he is the team's biggest liability.

They sucked big time in 1st half and unfortunately the 2nd half was 1 half too late.

They could’ve easily scored a TD to end the game if they needed one

Saints won the time of possession. The defense needed one or two stops. They have been pretty good all year.

Today they were bad. Real bad. Bad bad.

Stephone Anthony level bad.

One thing is without a doubt certain. This defense will let us down when it matters most. Done it time and time and time again. How many soul crushing ridiculous ways can these sad fricks find to lose a game?

It's fricking mind boggling.

We were lucky our offense came to play otherwise we would have been embarrassed

By "step up" you mean not as shitty as they were in the 1st half then yes I agree

Too bad they allowed a game winning 60 yard drive in 30 seconds at the end though

They were better in second half, but the end of game bullshite has been consistent for years now.

Don’t forget.

Saints had 10 days to prepare for San Fran since we played on Thanksgiving. And that’s what we got from our defense. So we should be happy they got stops for half of a half?

Inexcusable. Incompetent. Embarrassing!

They played a lot better. It was obvious San Fran did some things differently against us than they had done to previous opponents.



Our D plays bad at times but it was really uncharacteristic for them to give up 48. 40? Yeah I believe that but they lived off chunk plays. When we made them drive they couldn’t. Live and die by the big play. It actually might be to our advantage to play outdoors against them
