Posted this in the other thread but

Hope to see this type of pressure continue. It’ll be interesting to see how a defense like this plays against Tom Brady who is known for quick release passing. 

That is amazing. Just got my tickets for the Thursday night game against the Texans.  Let's go!

When your secondary can cover when you blitz 6 or 7, they will also be top 10.

Literally every time we blitzed, we got a sack or Winston throwaway. Some of them were coverage sacks. Really impressed with how well the coverage was today.

Great point, adding Horn was like the missing piece of the puzzle. Everyone on defense has stepped it up, especially Jackson.

Horn should have had 2 interception but other than that his name has been silent.

I mean this in a good way.  They just don't throw his way too often.  Talking about a stat-less ROY.   He just shuts receivers down.

I'm joking about ROY but am serious he would never been considered because he's stat-less.

I bet the entire narritive from the talking heads this week will keep talking about how the Saints lost the game rather than how we won it . Usually how it goes.

Yeah, I read the game summary @nfl and while they mention the QB play from other games and even gushed a little and made excuses for Fields 6/13 + fumble + Int, they didn't say one word about Darnold's great game. I guess that crow doesn't taste to good. I don't know because at my table they served Saints.

We'll get some love this week for sure.

I know everyone wants to keep hyping our pass rush, but our Rushing Defense especially on the line has been insanely good. We made Kamara a non-issue. 11 less ypg rushing than the next best team(TB) and 20-25~ less yards than the first major pack behind TB.

If we came in with all those issues they would have said, "Well, it's the NFL." The first video I watched, the dude said, "Well, they had all those coaches..." Get out of here!!! You can't go into the game talking about how well coached Sean Payton keeps his players and how they do well with the next man up situations. Then blame the loss on the next man up situation.

Yeah, that wasn't an issue when they picked the Saints to win. Only 1 half of the Bleacher report picked us. Everyone else picked the Saints and everyone knew about the coaches being out.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
