You laugh, but with how the refs have been, red zone opportunities are at a premium.

Drew better throw a TD in the second or Moore is gonna get

He also could have caught the pass in 08 to put Brees over 5084

get that dump off pass to sproles on the sideline out of the game today....they are playing him


The Titans defense is keying in on him for sure. The only time's it works it comes back because of a Saints penalty.

What a boring, and incredibly frustrating half to watch. Our offense left 8 points off the board, and a penalty took away another 7.

2nd half and brees td streak in jeopardy....

luckily since its a close game this means sean completely abandons the run and we'll get the pass attempts

Sean Payton needs quit trying to keep Brees' TD streak alive and actually use the running game to score a TD, especially on the 5 yard line.

If it comes down to it, the streak will end. For now, he's going to keep trying. That drop was on Moore. That should have been a TD.

That's the only saving grace here. The officiating has been piss poor, which has cost the Saints points.

So frustrating that we refuse to run the ball on first down inside the red zone.

This game gives credence to everyone saying Saints won't fare well on the road in the playoffs, in sub optimal weather. We are such a mental case, all these penalties we are committing, forced throws to Graham, stretch runs by Ivory completely snuffed out by the defense, and dumb passes to Sproles in the flat heavily covered by defenders.

Brees has thrown the ball 27 times already. This shite needs to stop and we need to commit to the run.

On a positive note Falcons are getting trashed 23-7 and Bucs are getting hammered 28-14 by freaking Jacksonville!

Saints should have 21 easy. Some of those holding calls have been ticky tack though. Lance rarely drops those. frick it's just a jinx type day. I just want out of here with a win in this ugly arse game.

Any guesses on total flags thrown by the end of the game? I'm going with 28

Sproles and Ivory are getting good yardage. I don't understand the need to abandon the run inside the red zone, I just fricking don't.

This is definitely just like the Cincinnati game last year. I know we can come out with the win, but damn, this is getting pretty difficult.

Of those 27 I can only remember about 5 of them having been thrown past 10 yards, and of those only 2 were completed I think.

Brees is definitely off today, and instead of handing the ball off we keep throwing these 2 yard passes to RB's instead of running the ball.

Amazingly enough our offense was on the field nearly 20 of those 30 minutes in the first half. Titans defense might tire out, especially if we commit to the run.
