The New Orleans Jeckyll N Hyde!

630521087x_01_lzzzzzzz_medium

 

Ladies and Gents. I will not sugar coat this horrific ordeal. A matter of fact? I'm going to call it as I see it. I am as every bit frustrated as everyone else is. This team is in BIG trouble! How on God's green earth do you go from extremely dominant one week to totally God Awful the next.  And not to mention to a horrible 0-6 team?  Well, to put it mildly, I believe I have this figured out. 

  For one thing our defense is garbage! Gregg Williams is garbage! Tracy Porter went from Hero to total zero.  They can't stop the run. They can't even stop one of the worst defenses out there.  Oh and wait a minute!  Wasn't it mentioned there were some second stringers on the Rams defense? I'm just sick and stunned. We could be sitting at 7-1 or at least 6-2 running away with this Division. 

 

 The offense stunk as well. Does Meachem and Henderson even play anymore? They have been non existent lately.  Drew Brees, even though the O'line did an F- job did terrible as well. Where was the deep ball? Why can't our receivers get frigging open?  Brees was 12-15 for 88 yards at one time. That's pretty awful.  That's almost like throwing 2 yard completions.  I am sick and tired of this team playing "soft" against bad teams. Umm Cleveland, Arizona, Seahawks and the 0-6 Rams who are now 1-6.  I think I agree with our friend Stujo regarding steep decline.  

 

This is a Jeckyll N Hyde inconsistent team. We never know anymore who's gonna show up. I've very disgusted with the offensive playcalling. Dink n Dunk crap. And why the hell did we punt with 6 minutes left down by 10?  We were exposed today. It's panic time folks!  If we don't rebound this Sunday, this season is in jeopardy. We'll be lucky to get in as a wildcard.  There is too much ego on this team. The Saints thought they could walk on the visiting teams field, toss their helmets, and have the attitude: We're The New Orleans Saints! We're going to just walk out of here with a win. No matter if your opponent is the undefeated Packers or the winless Rams, you play football to your fullest potential!  

 

And I would personally like to congratulate the coaching staff and the New Orleans Saints for playing down to an inferior team...Again! And I would like to thank them for allowing everyone to laugh at us again. And boy! Are we getting laughed at!   I certainly can handle getting beat from a good team that shows hard effort that they fought through the whole game. But I CERTAINLY can not handle embarrassing losses such as this!  And this has been a pattern. I see it!! And I hope you can too!  

 

 The Coaching! The Defense!! The offense!!   Get's an F- for complete utter Epic failure!!   And Payton and company, if this doesn't wake you up! I don't know what the heck will!!  

 

  There's my rant folks!  My optimism is very dismal as you can see!   

 

  Let's hear what you have to say. Rant away folks!

^^^THIS....

Plus the coach who repeatedly left him on an island with ZERO help. ZERO EFFING HELP!!!!!

by Dan Kelly on Oct 31, 2011 2:29 PM CDT up reply actions  

it didn't matter when they did give him help

One of Long’s sacks was on a play where Graham chipped him from the outside and he just ran right to the inside of Brown. Charlie was apparently completely unaware that he had help to the outside.

Rec'd it

I said earlier I wasn’t gonna even talk Saints football this week after this game and now I really don’t have to because you pretty much summed up everything I was thinking. We are not elite. And this goes much deeper than just this week. We have been playing down to teams for years upon years……before Sean Payton, hell even before Jim Haslett. I don’t know if it is just built into our DNA or if it is some strange disease that is passed from team to team. We really need to get medical science involved and find a cure for this sickness.

Tell me about it

I remember in 2006 when we killed Dallas 42-17, then lost 16-10 to the 5-11 skins
2007 we killed Jacksonville 41-24, they were damn good that year. Then oh, lost the 0-8 "Winless’ Rams….again! 37-29

2009. 13-1 we lose the 2-12 Bucs! 20-17.

2010. Saints lose 30-20 to the Cards, 30-17 to the Browns then crushed the Steelers 20-10 the next week?

 Oh yeah, and the worst playoff team 7-9 loss from the Seahawks 41-36.

  Yeah, I’m getting sick of it.

 We are not an Elite team. Like I said, we are Jeckyll N Hyde!

Oh and check this stat out.
The Rams trailed by double digits in each of their first six games, and before Sunday had the lead for only 6:28 all season. They led at halftime for the first time since they were up 3-0 against the 49ers in the 2009 season finale in a 28-6 loss.

Drew Brees is not in decline. I will correct myself in the next List.

Now, if you want to get behind something, let’s cut Devery Henderson. During practice. In front of everybody. He’ll still get paid and Mickey can smooth it over in private later. “Hey Devery, you weren’t playing much, you weren’t coming back next year, and this is the best way you could have helped the team. Thanks a bunch, buddy.”

Decline steep or otherwise...

I can’t put this one on Drew. Looked like we had Chicago’s O-Line playing out there yesterday. I mean seriously, 6 sacks. Drew didn’t have a chance and our receivers, not to mention the play calling, didn’t help one bit. We didn’t even try to abuse one of the worst rushing Ds, and just kept letting our QB get beat up. Only bright side is Drew will still get the chance to Beat Favre’s record, yet again. I just hope he isn’t also going to compete for his INT record. All that being said, the homer in me, still believes we can get it done. The Rams had a great game plan for us and we played right into it.

Total agreement with you there buddy! Yesterday reminded us we are NOT an elite team! And like I said before I hate being embarrassed. When you lose to good teams like the Packers for instance, at least they fought in that game and showed pride and dignity. There’s a huge difference in losing a hard fought game to a good team vs getting your butts kicked and embarrassed by the worst team in the league.

 It makes you lose faith in the coaching staff and the team. Those are my feelings.

  The defense sucks balls we know that.

  Drew Brees had a crappy game even though he got no protection from the WORST FRIGGING defense in the league. However, he cannot carry this team week to week.

In my head, I was wondering what Sean Payton should do. Yesterday that crappy old RB for Pittsburgh was on ESPN and they asked his expert opinion on what players think on losing teams. He said the coaches can tell who has quit by midseason, they don’t need a post season player evaluation. The ones who considered it a job that they wanted to keep and kept doing their best win or lose were retained and the others were released.

I think Payton needs to tell the team that he only wants players who want a ring. Those that already have a ring and don’t care much about this season aren’t going to be with the team next year, so show me what you want. Weed out the nonperformers.

Yes sir! And I think Payton HIMSELF needs to get his head out of his rectum. And I could give two sh^ts about his verbatum speeches. “Obviously it was a disappointing loss for us”. Really Mr. Payton? It was alot more than that coach. It was humiliation!

He said the coaches can tell who has quit by midseason

Meachem, Henderson, Jenkins, Porter. I could go on and on but I’m fixing to hurl again. I want to prevent that.

Those that already have a ring and don’t care much about this season aren’t going to be with the team next year, so show me what you want. Weed out the nonperformers.

Bingo! Never settle for one ring. It’s the same thing when you get a fat bonus check, why settle for one when you can have more?

real bad loss..keep in mind

Every team in the NFL except Green Bay has been inconsistent. The second half of the season will find which teams can be consistent. Those teams will move on. I think Payton in the booth hurt the team this week. But that’s not why we lost- we lost because (50%) Rams played inspired good football. Saints played (50%) uninspired, poorly executed football.

We need to be proavtive and run more screen passes, even if they aren’t successfull. When your QB gets sacked 6 times and hurried most other throws, you need to do x,y,and z to counteract. X is screen passes, Y is draw plays, Z is
help in the blocking schemes. We never seem to make the adjustments to counteract their pass rush.

We need a pass rush. Defense started well this game. Offense looked lost.

Better blocking will help… we had great blocking in the Colts game.

Better playing will help… we finally started mixing in different types of runs the Colts game.

Maybe SP and JE and CN “eat the cheese” and think because their “the best in football” that a. we have to run up their asses every time and b. runs behind them should always work.

They are IGNORING THE FILM.

Of course, this is an old argument and only a tiny, tiny portion of the reason why we lost yesterday.

If they’re not effective, try something else! I’m NOT saying stop running. We don’t need fewer runs. We need more effective runs, to keep the chains moving and keep defenders “honest” (ie. down in the box) so we can run past them and get the big play.

IF THE OPPONENT STOPS ALL OUR RUNS, THEY WILL NOT RESPECT OUR RUN GAME. RUNNING MORE IN THAT SITUATION WILL NOT HELP.

We need effective runs that make them respect our run game.

I heard their top FOUR cornerbacks left the team or on IR.

Only 1 of the current starters were even with the team on September 1st.

So.. this has been a gripe of mine that I've noticed since the 2009 Cowgirls game...

Why the **** don’t we make adjustments in play calling and blocking more often than three quarters or never.

-

When you play Madden, you notice when I guy is overloading one side the repeatedly, or if one of your o-lineman are getting beat repeatedly…

So, you call different formations with extra blocker (“max protect” anyone?), you change blocking schemes to point to the weak area, you move RB to the weaker side, or you make that RB block instead of running a BS route.

Why did it take us THREE FULL QUARTERS until we moved a RB over to the right side??? WTH!?!?

by Dan Kelly on Oct 31, 2011 2:41 PM CDT reply actions  

Sunday morning before the game

On Hansdat’s Hot Reads article, I commented that this game worried me. It had everything adding up to a potential upset.

1. The Saints were coming off a huge win at home and playing on the road.
2. The Saints were prohibitive favorites playing an “inferior” team
3. The Rams had nothing to lose and everything to gain.

As predicted, the Saints played down to the level of their opponent and had their a**es handed to them. It stings like hell right now, but in the long run, I’ll get over it.

Hmmm...
I probably shouldn’t come on this. ;-)

Great. HE’S not even sure what to do. (Hint: Cut Devery)

OK guys and gals..................breath easy, it aint over yet

If it was going to happen(and it did), I’m just glad it happened at this time of the season. I’ll take the inconsistantcy as long as it works our way. If they are consistantly inconsistant, we should blow Tampa out of the stadium this Sunday. Win big (Colts), lose big (Rams), so this week should be a major win and it also is within our division. It is not the time to Panic!!!! 5-3 at the halfway point would indicate that 10-6 could be the final outcome at the end of the season if the inconsistantcy continues and I think that would get us in the playoffs. I also believe that the closer to the end of the season should increase the intensity level of our Saints. They know whats at stake and I feel they will get it together after seeing what will happen if this crap continues. Of course this is coming from a true Saints fan so stay tuned folks, it only gets better from here on out…….

Agreed sly

I vented like a mad dog and it’s time to move on and focus on the next game

I spent 8 years trying to reach him...and then another 7 trying to keep him locked up because I realized what was living behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply...Evil.

What I dont understand is........

Why Payton can’t still call the plays from the booth? His headset should work from anywhere in the stadium directly to Brees and still have that line of communication. looks to me that he would have a better perspective of what to call being that he can see the whole field better than from the sidelines. He can see what the other teams defense is doing a whole lot better and make the adjustments as he goes along. Maybe there is a rule that prohibits this from happening but someone is in the booth relaying information to him during the game so him being up there would cut out the middleman and save time getting the plays in to Brees.
This also looks to be an advantage and I have often wondered why the coach wouldn’t be in the booth anyway. Very smart idea on my part as I too am a legend in my own time.

There is such a rule. Only a coach on the sidelines is allowed to speak directly into the QB’s headset. If Payton wanted to call the plays himself, he would have to relay them through Carmichael, which is actually what they told everyone was going to happen after the Bucs game. The problem with that is that it takes an extra 5 seconds or so to get the play in, reducing the amount of time Drew has to read the defense, adjust the protection, and/or audible another play.

They could always go to a wristband system…

SP… just calls in the number, and Carmichael can add his spin on it.

or something like that.

That sucks………….I cant see a difference where the play comes from as long as it gets to Brees. The next best thing woud be for Brees to call his own plays as I’m sure he knows them all for certain situations. His name should be “Breeton”…………….

I have a feeling Tampa is going to get trashed this weekend

If they do we will have some hope but if not people are going to start sh*tting bricks.

And please, defense, for the love of all things holy strip the GD ball.

Let’s hope Sarah. I won’t be able to see the game this Sunday though. Going on a 3 day casino trip. But will check the scores that evening.

We have an elite offense that played horribly.

And a below average defense that played poorly. On a normal game I’d say we are elite when our defense can slow down the run and eliminate the big play. Neither of which they have been able to do.

Our offense besides last game is still at the top of the NFL in almost every category. The only thing I don’t like is our INT%

by daisy117 on Nov 3, 2011 5:25 PM CDT reply actions  

I feel.....................

This game aginst the Buc’s will define the rest of the season for my Saints in my mind. If we lose another game to them, the bottom will fall out and then you will see the band wagon get empty fast. A win will put us over the top and will boost the rest of the season all the way to the playoffs but NOW is the time to put the pedal to the metal and hold it down the rest of the way. It wont get any easier from here on out and our best game is still ahead. All the lolly-gaging has to stop and focus on the big picture. We need the HFA to enter the playoffs and ultimately to the Super Bowl. A loss to the Bucs will unwind this team and create some dissention with the players and coaching staff and ultimately trash this season. I still have faith that we will win and go on to win the division but what ever happens, it will start this Sunday in our house.
