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
by BayouRebel on Oct 12, 2008 12:34 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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.
by xen-cuts on Oct 12, 2008 12:36 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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

I dont know man but....
There’s a kicker from purdue we should draft next year…

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.

Are you high???
The guy is as good as brees.

garcia is good…. But he’s no Drew brees
by dell00 on Oct 12, 2008 12:43 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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.
by SaintBevo on Oct 12, 2008 12:45 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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.
by xen-cuts on Oct 12, 2008 12:46 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Did you see his stats from last year??
How can you blame him for what happened last year? – OL, RBs, Defense anyone?
by SaintBevo on Oct 12, 2008 12:49 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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.
by xen-cuts on Oct 12, 2008 1:13 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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.
by SaintBevo on Oct 12, 2008 1:16 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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.
by xen-cuts on Oct 12, 2008 1:26 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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
by SaintBevo on Oct 12, 2008 1:31 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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
by dell00 on Oct 12, 2008 1:33 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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.
by xen-cuts on Oct 12, 2008 4:00 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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
by dell00 on Oct 12, 2008 12:49 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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…

anyone notice how he’s piling up yards???
Interesting huh

Way to finish it off
Finally we started and completed something
by SpindianSaints on Oct 12, 2008 12:51 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
So Brees......
Did his incompletion on the defensive offsides go on his stats, or is he still perfect?

Fox Gametrax
has Brees 14/14 for 136 so my guess is the INC didn’t count with the penalty
by BayouRebel on Oct 12, 2008 12:59 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
just me
or did grant get tackled on that play?
by SaintBevo on Oct 12, 2008 12:59 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
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

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
by dell00 on Oct 12, 2008 1:32 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
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.
