Around SBN: UFC 146 Results: Junior dos Santos TKO's Frank Mir

Fleur-De-Links: Saturday, September 10

Today you get your links as a mid-day presentation, while I take the early afternoon to complete the HansDat's Hot Reads analysis follow-up to get that up for you later today (Pre-reply: TWSS).

The Saints players lifted weights, looked at film, and got injury treatment yesterday. They are off today and tomorrow (so lots of navel-gazing tweets are sure to ensue), then will have a light day Monday before being off again Tuesday before jumping into Da Bears preparations on Wednesday as they get back on a normal game-week schedule.

Make the jump for the tweets and links.

Saw you on twitter CC

You ever mess with it? I finally broke down and made an account and it is a little more confusing than I thought it would be. It seems like it could be simpler.

Not really

Absolutely

you would think that after our last playoff game, I guess Saints D enjoys getting record set, tied and broken on them.

Tackling

was abysmal. I really hope they get the defence sorted out because it’s just nowhere near good enough to get back to the SB, imo. Not the way they were on Thursday.
The offense is just fine though, i think. Maybe needs a few tweaks here and there, and the Colston injury is a bad start, but hopefully we get Lance Moore back soon.
I don’t know if this has been mentioned in a different thread but one interesting thing i noticed in looking through Green Bay’s Super Bowl winning season schedule from last year is that no one put 34 points past them all season.
The two teams who came closest to what we did were Detroit (26 points) and Pittsburgh in the SB (25 points).
That tells me that either the Saints are a great offense, capable of beating any team in the NFL, or that the Green Bay defence isn’t as good as last season.
I’ll go with the former.

Saints need to be consistently good though, not just good every other game.
