Jason David
The minute they mentioned his name I knew they were throwing the ball right to him

Harper has the worst hands in the NFL
He has missed like three picks this year

stujo....
Link to the game, with sound….
http://124.217.246.220/~andrt/tvtuner_channels.html
you need tvants installed though, you may have to google & download it 1st…
(good pic, good sound)
Penalties aren't gonna help us though....
Offensive holding for -10 in the redzone is a drive killer
once you get the misses on fg's, they don't stop all season!
Seriously. This is going to be a long season on fg’s. Just accept that we have to get TD’s or we’ll lose. And think of Melhaff’s makes as a bonus. Your life will be significantly improved.
Mehlhaff
has only been back on the team 4 days, he hasn’t kicked since preseason. I say give him a lil slack
Time on team cannot possibly affect this guy
he was there all preseason. he’s been practicing “at school,” according to him. It’s going to be a long year. Look at what happened to the Cowboys a couple years ago….
Still, I’m happy we changed kickers. If someone is going to miss it might as well be the rookie retard who has a future with the team. Hopefully he’ll grow into this position.
ridiculous that we're losing.
We need to get rid of losers on this team….and somehow find some real winners. Even though we have talent we just cannot turn the corner.
Why did we not sign Jason Elam
That is my thought after the 1st Qtr

the key for tampa is to play garcia
i know they hate him, but he’s their best qb. The guy is as good as brees.
he has shit receivers
although I wish Clayton could get out of their doghouse because he pretty much won lsu a championship by himself…both ways player…amazing!
with brees at QB
The receivers are like stormtroopers, it doesn’t matter who they are , nameless faceless drones.
the only bad thing I can say about garcia
is that he panics under pressure. But it’s not like Brees has been pulling out games for us. If you go back to last season, there are a TON of 4th quarter drives that he hasn’t managed to pull out. There were what, 5 games last season that were “must win to make the playoffs”? Then there are 3 this year already. It’s not just the rb situation that is holding us up. Garcia has been at least that good.
Did you see his stats from last year??
How can you blame him for what happened last year? – OL, RBs, Defense anyone?
aaron brooks had amazing stats, too
the guy is good. Just not good enough all the time. The only stats that matter to me are wins and losses.
Brooks??!
You have got to be kidding me. We have a QB who is maybe the best in the league, he kicks total ass down the stretch last year without a running gmae, without a good OL, with Jason David getting burned all over the place and it is his fault? Incredible.
he could have kept JD off the field.
you know he had to do that. I don’t know what you are arguing about.
I’m not saying Brees isn’t awesome, I’m just saying that Garcia is just about as good.
this is what we're arguing about
I’m not saying Brees isn’t awesome, I’m just saying that Garcia is just about as good.
I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree because I don’t think Garcia can carry Brees’ jock in a suitcase
Bevo...
I’m with you buddy….
Garcia hasn’t ever had the type of season Brees has had the last 2 years…
He’s not that type of QB
except for Garcia going to the playoffs more than Brees....
I haven’t looked up the stats, but Garcia has a better track record with multiple teams. Everyone seems to underestimate the guy, but all he does is win.
Last week, wasn’t Brees’s fault… Miss by gramatica, 41 yard PI by KK sealed our fate…
Drew did his job, putting us in a position to get it to overtime..
Washington, Our defense failed us … We were up by 11 & our ground n pound couldn’t manage a 4-1
not ONLY his fault.
if we had gotten one more td or he had kept that last drive going, it would have been a win.
Did you see that
The Detroit QB running out of bounds in the back of the end zone without even trying.
We are so lucky we have Drew…

Way to finish it off
Finally we started and completed something
by SpindianSaints on Oct 12, 2008 12:51 PM CDT reply actions
So Brees......
Did his incompletion on the defensive offsides go on his stats, or is he still perfect?
With an efficient running game....
It’s really opened up our passing game…
It’s also made for a very quick 1st half… Wouldn’t be suprised if we’re the 1st team into the locker rooms out of all the early games today….
It may not be pretty, but our Offense is doing an excellent job controlling the tempo & holding onto the ball… We may not see 30 points today, but they won’t see 20..
He is not a receiver
As long as he breaks up passes and makes tackles it doesn’t matter if he can catch. When he does it’s extra
Good to see Shockey Running off of the field at halftime
Hopefully we will have him and Colston next week.
The Nittany Lions are on their way to claiming the top spot
Texas’s remaining schedule is brutal, and there is no way that Bama can run through the SEC unblemished.
WE ARE PENN STATE!!!!

Sorry, but...
the bcs is gonna look all messed up yet again this year… Bama won’t go undefeated…. As said earlier, texas’s schedule is brutal…
Looks like there’ll be another matchup like last year with a 1 loss team or possibly 2 loss team making it to the title game
so far
All too familiar Saints weaknesses: shaky kicking game has cost us 3 points. Two holding calls in the red zone… probably could have scored a TD. Either way it’s missed points. So far, no turnovers, though we did have some missed picks… need to make those plays. More McCallister would be a good thing. Why did we run Bush up the middle on the first drive? Resulted in 3 and out. Finally, Russell has had way, way too much time to throw. Saints need to run more stunts to get pressure on the QB, or it will come back to haunt them. The game is far from over.
2nd horsecollar from DeAngelo Hall today...
So far, the ref’s have failed to pull out their flags both times!!!!!!
That’d be an extra 30 yards in penalties
Although our Defensive line really hasn't gotten much pressure on Russell
They haven’t really needed to, cause our backers n 2ndary are covering well, & we’re making McFadden non-exsistant…
time to finish a game
Saints need to show they can hold a lead. I hope they don’t go conservative on us.
BALLGAME!!!
On to a huge game at Carolina next week.
I will be on the thread boys!! Looking forward to it already.
Hopefully Shockey can Colston will be the lineup
BREES FOR MVP!!!
I'm just gonna put the Birdie in everyone's ear right now...... HA
I better be getting some game prediction votes!!!
1 saint’s puttin up 40 on the Raiders…..
2 Brees has a passer rating over 100
3 We win the turnover battle…LOL
Just wanted to put that out there for ya…LOL
Everyone outside of New Orleans..
..did CBS cut ya’lls feed of the game to?
CBS is giving Mobile, AL Brett Farve…
WTF…
looks like that simulation was way off...
except for the W which is what really counts. Good game, good to see deuce do his thang.
